If you have done your homework and planned well, this is the year when good things begin to take shape. You are comfortable in the business sector of your life and will attract more attention than you have been getting over the past few years.

Don’t be daunted by the barriers that crop up during this period. Be patient, stick to your guns, then leap each of those hurdles in a single bound. The Rabbit’s influence is one of silent cleverness and refinement.

Keep a low profile and don’t put your paw in it. A good year for cosmetic surgery or self-help plans. The quiet, wily, home-loving Rabbit benefits all that concerns beauty, improvement of lifestyle and social order. You are not much on tradition.

My advice? This year make a special effort to respect time-honored practices. If you feel like skipping the sermon, don't. If you hate antiques, buy some. If weddings and funerals irritate the hell out of you. Go anyway and dress for the occasion.

Appearing to be more conventional will outsmart the Rabbit. He may think you are beginning to learn how to behave properly and stay out of your hair for the duration.
