The Year of the Rabbit

Cuddly, warm and affectionate are the attributes of the Rabbit. Mysterious and a great party-giver and host, the Rabbit enjoys being the centre of attention once in a while. The Rabbit is occasionally over cautious and can be a bit boring. He is also one of the luckiest signs in the Chinese Astrology chart.

Forecast for 2011 The Rabbit will have found the momentum during 2010 quite unsettling, little realizing that his accomplishments during the year will set him up beautifully for his own year in 2011. This will be a stunning and most favorable year for him, especially in regard to work and career. His ability to interact with others will put him in the lead for any promotions at work. Also, if the Rabbit is considering a completely different career, this is the perfect time to explore his options. Not only will the change energize him but he will feel happier than he has done in some time. March to May and October to November will be important times for career developments.
 
Finances during the Rabbit's own year are buzzing, with his luck running high! He may see a salary increase, receive a gift or make extra money from a hobby or entrepreneurial idea. Socially, August, September and December will be hectic! Single Rabbits could meet their significant other this year and the relationship could move very fast. Those with partners will find their relationship becomes more serious and important. Stress and worry over decisions may drain the Rabbit's vitality during 2011 and it's very important he gets enough


 

rest and relaxation. He must also remember to call on friends and loved ones for support and advice during any challenging times.

Feedback from Michelle Newton

Michelle Newton was interviewed on 27 Nov 2009. The following was her feedback about her interview session. Thank you Michelle for your precious feedback.

Hi Arthur,

The interview with Arthur and his crew was fun and conducted in a professional manner. I was able to inform people of the program I am running to a community that I would not normally have access to. It allowed me to promote the opportunity to volunteer and promote the advantages of hiring people from a refugee background. Thank you for the opportunity Arthur.

Kind regards,
