HERE COMES THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON > 10TH FEB 2024 -
Yours truly, a very feisty Water Dragon, will be STEAMING with the aid of Earth because this is the year of the Wood Dragon, a combination of earth and water. Watch out fools, I don't take prisoners!
The Dragon symbolizes power, nobleness, honour, luck, and success in traditional Chinese culture. The Dragon is a supernatural being with no parallel for talent and excellence. The dragon is one of 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac (Shēngxiào, or 生肖), which is based on a 12-year cycle. The Year of the Dragon begins on the Chinese New Year, ending the Year of the Rabbit.
People born in the Year of the Dragon are traditionally thought to be enthusiastic, intelligent, lively, energetic, and innovative. It is the only sign in the Chinese horoscope which uses a supernatural being for its symbol.
The Water Dragon, specifically those born in the year of 1952, are very positive and optimistic. Their attitude towards life can also influence people around them and leave a good impression on others. And they also like to make friends, so their popularity is generally good. In addition, they have great endurance and perseverance and can always accomplish things well. The Water Dragon also have strong physique and are full of energy.
However, Dragon people, born in 1952 are somewhat selfish in their life and always haggle over every ounce about their own interests. They are somewhat arrogant and unwilling to admit their mistakes actively. Moreover, they lack flexibility in doing things, and sometimes their words are offensive, which makes people feel really hurt. [this is particularly true of me, don’t you think?]

For people born in the year of the Dragon, 2024 is their Ben Ming Nian (Zodiac Year of Birth). According to Chinese horoscope, people generally encounter more misfortune than good fortune in their Ben Ming Nian. So in this year, they should stay low key, be cautious, and spend more energy defending the status quo rather than seeking for changes. Red clothing and footwear is said to be effective keeping out bad luck in Ben Ming Nian, so people often wear it for that purpose, especially on the first day of the Dragon year, which falls on February 10 in 2024 in the Gregorian calendar.
They should spend more energy keeping healthy.

Knowing this beforehand, they should learn to reduce pressures properly. In daily life, seek for a balance between work and rest and keep a good mood, which will be helpful in maintaining health.

Anyone who knows me well, like
will happily confirm that I am very much a Dragon according to the characteristics listed above and maybe more so than those polite words convey….I think it is fair to say that I am relentless, argumentative, feisty, impatient, sometimes furious and scary. In real life, I have seen people quake when I lose my temper.
Simultaneously I am persistent, dedicated, helpful, loyal and friendly…. most of the time.
If you read my Autobiography, you will see that the years 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000 and 2012 were all very difficult years for me, so it is interesting that those are the Dragon years. I didn’t notice that at the time, I was too busy coping with all the changes that hit me! In traditional Chinese culture the year of your sign is often unlucky, but can be less so if you tame your wilder side and play it cool.
I have never played anything cool in my entire life, so this coming year may prove a tad difficult for me! 🤣😂
You will notice that there is no sign of shyness, no lack of confidence, no shrinking violets hereabouts! I have no idea what it feels like to be shy or lacking in confidence. I always believe that I can do anything I set my mind to and I get very confused when I meet shy and nervous people. I usually feel sorry for them, simply because I haven’t a foggy clue what they are going through!
Upshot of all this is that I shall be wearing lots of red this year, to ward off danger and dodgy characters! Thankfully Peggy (
) went to the market, when she was visiting from Australia, and she bought me a bright red dress which I love. I already possess some fabulous red patent leather shoes! I intend to buy a few more red dresses and maybe a red swimsuit too because, for my health, I intend to take a short holiday at a Health Spa with swimming, jacuzzi, steam and sauna very shortly (not a fucking vegan one, that is for sure!) 🙄AND when Peggy gets back to the UK, we are going to take a trip on a Canal boat that she used to work on! Two old workaholic cronies, being waited on hand and foot for once in our lives! Should be wonderful. I have never been on a British canal! I hear the scenery is gorgeous! Better than 5G infested motorways, anyway!
Use the link Chinese Zodiac to find out which sign you are in the Chinese horoscope and see if you recognise your characteristics as closely as I recognise mine. It is just a bit of fun and relaxation, rather than dwelling on all the bloody nonsense that the Black Nobs are cooking up for us….. all the totalitarian controls….. all the fear porn from the WEFfers and above all, the unrelenting barrage of threats to our individual rights and freedoms.
You know what I say to ‘em don’tcha?
As a celebration of all things Dragon and a late Birthday prezzie and a distraction from the pain. I felt this might help https://rumble.com/v4h4tdt-the-last-dragon-myth-made-reality.html ( enjoy )
I love Dragons so much! 🐉 🩷
