CNY 2015

The sheep (goat, or ram) is among the animals that people like most. It is gentle and calm. Since ancient times, people have learned to use its fleece to make writing brushes and skin to keep warm. As it is white, people describe delicate and precious white jade to be 'suet jade'. Thus it is close to the meaning of good things.

Charateristics of people born in the year of Sheep are tender, polite, filial, clever, and kind-hearted. They have special sensitivity to art and beauty, faith in a certain religion and a special fondness for quiet living. They are wise, gentle and compassionate and can cope with business cautiously and circumspectly. In their daily life, they try to be economical. Women born in this year are willing to take good care of others, but they should avoid pessimism and hesitation. They are kind in heart and commonly have symmetrical figures and features.

Sheep year is time to heal after the chaos of 2014's Horse year.  What is of value now is intimacy, family and close friendships.  We can be more caring, kind and sensitive with each other.  Develop a gentle heart, open to love and acceptance on all levels.  Another theme of Sheep year is to express your creative side.  Now is the time for art, creativity and cultivation of beauty.  If you ever wanted to explore your creative side, this is your year.  Do not give up, be pessimistic or become discouraged
because Sheep can only move forward!  This animal is unable to move backwards or sideways.  Sheep year is most fortunate for Sheep, and for Sheep's most compatible signs Rabbit, Horse and Pig.
