Guest guest Report post Posted February 15, 1999 Hare Krsna Today 16th of February 1999 is the first day of the year of the rabbit (sometimes known as the year of the cat popularized in a hit song by Al Stewart in the late 70s )which runs until February 4 2000 ). Here is what Theodora Lau has to say about The Year Of the Rabbit THE YEAR OF THE RABBIT A placid year,very much welcomed after the ferocious year of the Tiger.We should go off to some quiet spot to lick our wounds and get some rest after all the battles of the previous year. Good taste and refinement will shine on everythimg and people will acknowledge that persuasion is better than force.A congenial time in which diplomacy, international relations and politics will be given a front seat again.We will act with discretion and make reasonable concessions without too much difficulty. A time to watch out that we do not become too indulgent.The influence of the Rabbit tends to spoil those who like too much comfort and thus impair their effectiveness and sense of duty. Law and order will be lax:Rules and regulations will not be rigidly enforced.Noone seems to be very inclined to bother with these unpleasant realities.They are busy enjoying themselves,entertaining others or simply taking it easy.The scene is quiet and calm,even deteriorating to the point of somnolence.We will have a tendency to put off disagreeable tasks as long as possible. Money can be made without too much labour.Our lifestyle will be languid and leisurely as we will allow ourselves the luxuries we have always craved.A temperate year with unhurried pace.For once it may seem possible to be carefree and happy without too many annoyances.
