YEAR OF THE DOG 2018
The year of the dog starts today! According to Chinese astrologer Laura Lau, this year will feel very different from last year — and that might be for the better. Lau says that, within the Chinese Zodiac, the Dog is a true companion,
associated with loyalty, honesty, intelligence, and a strong sense of
right and wrong. "Dogs are known to be swift and passionate believers in their own
personal philosophy," Lau says. "The Dog does his best to protect
high-integrity people and support their cause."

In other words, this year of the Dog may see people fighting for the
causes they believe in. This influence could manifest itself as
large-scale political movements or something as simple as local
community work and small acts of kindness.

"The earth element makes this a gentler dog than other elements," Lau
says. This element encourages us to take a cooler-headed approach to
problems, rather than letting our emotions flare up and get the better
of our reasoning. Whatever sign you may be (and if you don't know, you can look it up here),
the year of the Dog is a great time to reach out to those around you
and become a friendly presence in their lives, if not a true friend.
And, if you're already speaking out for your values, you just might get
an energizing boost this year.
