The Rabbit horoscope for 2017, year of the Fire Rooster. 5

Before you read the Rabbit horoscope for 2017, year of the Fire Rooster, you might want to understand the Chinese calendar concepts. The introduction to these predictions can be found in this article: 2017 Horoscope for the 12 Chinese signs: year of the Fire Rooster.

Horoscope 2017 for the Rabbit

How could I break it to you, Rabbit ? Well…Let just say that it’s not your year then. Not really. Do keep in mind however that we growth and learn much more when we go through difficulties and obstacles ; those moments greatly serve our spiritual evolution. And so the good news is that you REALLY going to evolve in 2017 !

Why could 2017 be difficult for you then ? Quite simply because you are the sign that sits opposite the year’s sign, which is the Rooster. It is a « full clash » of Chi : two worlds that don’t understand each other. To know what to do in such case, we have to relationship at work between the two signs. The Rooster is a pure Metal sign , and the Rabbit a pure Wood sign. Metal controls the Wood in the 5 Elements cycle. In Chinese astrology, a Metal-Wood clash can be solved by putting the Water Element in between. When introducing the Water Element, we then have : the Metal dissolving into Water, and Water nourishing the Wood rather than having the Metal attacking the Wood. Besides the Water signs like the Rat that can help you, one solution would be to often travel in 2017. Travelling is akin to a Water movement…You could even take a year off, if this is an option. Another good option is to study metaphysics an work on your subconscious through astrology, shamanism, family constellation etc. as both metaphysics and emotions are Water-related. Finally it is a year to go soft on yourself and especially on your body: yoga and aqua gym are much more what you need than a marathon, Rabbit. It is a year to take some time of, care about yourself and if possible go green.

The Rabbit love life during the Rooster year

Oddly enough, the opposition with the Rooster sign is not necessarily bad news for your love life. If you are a single woman, it can actually means that you’ll meet someone. Potential partners could be interested in you during the Rooster year and make their move. You should however take your time to see if your energies are compatible, or if you should rather refrain from starting this relationship. For single men of the Rabbit sign, it is a different story: you are not in control in 2017. You can still try being flirtatious and rely on your natural charisma, but destiny will decide your luck in love. Be humble and accept this fact early on; being cocky will surely backfire during the Rooster year. As for couples, this year 2017 can bring some tensions. The Yin Fire of the year will trigger you raw emotions such as your anger…The Fire however is your natural output Element Rabbit, and so it also brings an obvious solution. You should communicate at all cost and talk with your partner: keeping things for yourself and building up resentment will not work well. If you push yourself out of your comfort zone to always talk, you will move in the right direction.

The Rabbit work and money during the Rooster year.

It is obviously a bit of a tricky area of your life, due to the direct opposition with the Rooster. You will flare better if you work in a big company and keep a low profile. Even better if you are a woman…The Chi of this year could mean that your boss sees you in a good light (it depends of the rest of your Four Pillars here). Be cautious however: in some cases, your boss could suddenly like you a bit too much and not entirely professionally. You should aim at having respectful boundaries in places early on, as the Rooster year can bring some form of harassment or bullying to your sign. And even more so if you have more than one Rabbit sign within your Four Pillars…

In any case, it will be the time to see if your work provide you with the psychological support that you need; and if not, what you want to do about it. The year asks that you avoid direct conflicts and expand your horizons. The Fire can help you to speak well and you could even get a new job, but it is rather true for the first half of this Rooster year.

As for your finances, it is a year that asks you to be cautious. Ideally, avoid big decisions and life-changing decisions, as the Rooster Chi could provide you with surprises such as hidden costs or lemons. Triple check everything and do not act hastily. If you work for yourself, you will have to market and communicate more to earn your money, and especially during the summer.

The Rabbit health during the Rooster year

Surprise, it is also an area where you need to be cautious, Rabbits! It is quite the party, isn’t it? Better safe than sorry, and if you read this horoscope you will already change your behaviour and avoid problems. This is how astrology can empower us all, rather than being about doom and gloom written in stone…The combination of Fire and Metal in this Yin Fire Rooster year is a big red flag for your Chinese sign. Injuries such as twisted ankles, torn muscles or ligaments, or inflammation flaring are up in the air for you, Rabbit. If you practice some sport, go slow and easy this year. Train more lightly, when possible. During winter, be careful especially if you walk with high heels! It can however be a good year to find a surgeon to fix such “mechanical” issues on your hips, knees and so on. As the Water is your great ally during this Rooster year, aquagym, swimming or taking the waters is highly recommend. Travelling as I have mentioned is also good, and so aim at doing some trips during the year to dissipate the clash on your sign. You will experience some necessary oppositions in 2017, but the solution is to be flexible at all costs and reinvent yourself whenever possible. If you follow those advices, the year will be easier.

Good or bad, it’s all a question of adapting. Even during a stormy weather, any sign can have a great year. The key is to know what is coming for you, prepare and adapt. And did you know that you can have one, but also two, three or even four Rabbit signs in your birth chart? It is called the Bazi or Four Pillars of destiny.
