Chinese New Year

I have a lot in common with Kim Basinger & Chairman Mao.

We are delicate creatures and weather variations can effect our nerves. Without empty mental spaces in which to float free, our drowsy minds have no room to evolve their reveries into plans and action. We should avoid bladder irritants, such as spinach, asparagus, sorel, vinegar, unripe fruits, spices, alcohol and tobacco, but cranberry juice can be tried as a substitute for citrus products. Because we are cold-blooded, we require warmth, the sun, affection, security and cozy, luscious, sexy love.

We are of course Water Snakes

Greta Garbo is a Wood Snake
Joseph Conrad is a Fire Snake
Yasser Arafat is an Earth Snake
Aretha Franklin is a Metal Snake

And what of this new Year of the Ox? Oxen prefer the presence of wise, sane creatures like Snakes rather than a lot of nit-witted, fly-by-nights they don't respect. The Ox smiles on those who pitch in willingly and don't complain.
