Dog is the 9th in the 12 Chinese zodiac.
Fortune - This year is
the best time to make the best of what's given you. The Year of Snake is a year
to prepare and accumulate, and it's especially true for the dog. However, beware
of greed, for it will make the Snake dizzy. Get prepared for the costs that come
with success.
Born in the year of the Dog - 1946、1958、1970、1982、1994、2006
Overview - This will be a very productive and successful year for you,
Dog. The past few years have been filled with lots of work and hardship.
Recognition and reward have not been favorable to you until now. This year, you
are recognized for your intelligence and capability to complete all varieties of
tasks.
Work - Expect another year of hard work with long hours, but again you
will be rewarded for your efforts. This is nothing new for you, so it is simply
a matter of getting started. Your skills and intelligence will lead you and your
team in the right direction. Your natural abilities as a leader will shine
through this year.
Money - The year of the Snake will bring you better fortune. Although you
will not become a very rich man this year, money that you have respectfully
earned will be delivered to you. Be careful not to be greedy or spend the money
all at once. Plan carefully for the future and consider this year's financial
fortune as a step towards something better.
Health - A stable year for health concerns. Due to the abundance of work,
it is advised to get as much exercise as possible. Even 20 minutes every other
day will be highly beneficial to you.
Love and Family - Time commitments will cause stress on love and family
relationships. Be sure to allocate time that is devoted entirely to the family
and loved ones. The time you invest here will be far more valuable than any
fortune you could earn. If you are single, you will find a partner who is a
better friend than lover.

Calligraphy Artist creates this calligraphy artwork!
When I first saw a person
without hands who could not only write but also became a good calligrapher, I
was shocked. (See photo on the left）
Disabled artist， Mr. Wang， has sat in a wheelchair more than 30 years after a
catastrophic accident during fieldwork left him paralyzed from the waist down.
Master Wang was gracefully moving and pausing his brush that can be mesmerizing,
and there is one of his artworks on display here. (Photos on the right)
