Auspicious start dates will never be the same again. At least for those who work from home. This is one practice that will change the way we observe its applications and efficacy. Choosing an auspicious date to start work after the Chinese New Year celebrations is a traditional belief that supposedly brings about positive results for the person observing them for the rest of the year.

Much consideration is given to the day's energies, that itself is not a breaker day and such that it does not clash against the person observing it.

These are the auspicious dates to start work after the Chinese New Year holidays.

The 12 Zodiac Stars Chart.

Gods and Killings in the Year of the Metal Ox 2021.

You would have had a peek at the original chart on the front pages of the Chinese Almanac. However, they are very technical terms and transcripted in Chinese, something many of us may not fully understand.

This is the English version and a quick glance will offer you the weightage of auspicious stars against the unfavourable stars for each zodiac. As a guide, the red stars are auspicious while the black ones are unfavourable.

The annual forecast has various methods of calculation and the allocation of certain stars may differ amongst the sources. However, the main stars remain intact for most.

The most important consideration goes into the interpretation of these stars and the recommendations of how we make use of them in our favour.

Just like the Feng Shui of a space, a person with a zodiac with the most

superlative stars and do nothing, is not going to get anything out of it. Therein lies the difference of what we do with these stars as there are a handful which are in middle ground. They can be viewed as positive by some consultants and negative by others. Whatever their views, the important factor is knowing the essence of the stars matching to current and prevailing conditions.

As an example, Salty Pool in the Horse this year is seen by most to be a star of flirtations and extra marital affairs but there maintains a handful of practitioners who see it as a Peach Blossom star in positive light, that Salty Pool can be a relationship star.

A Sneak into the Year of the Metal Ox 2021.

It's out. The Chinese Almanac for the Year of the Ox that is.

The first six pages will be all that is needed for anyone to tell what lies ahead in the coming year. While some may argue that it may be too early to start preparing, two things stand out this year that say we will need a lot more information to handle what's to come when 2021 turns the corner.

First, consider that the preceding years of the Ox has been anything but exciting or promising. In fact, if you look back at the past Ox years, they have been dominantly lethargic in terms of results.

Next, everything, including the forecasting in Feng Shui and evrything metaphysics, have been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. It has become more critical than ever to at least be indicative of what is to come so that we are all prepared with ceratin level of informed choices.

The page that contains the vital knowledge is found in this page that reflects the zodiac signs corresponding with the energies attached to each. The important factor to consider is that this does not just touch on a person's year of birth. The effects of these energies, also known as the annual 'God and Killings' （流年神煞）can correspondingly bring about the same effects if that zodiac is found in the month, day or hour of birth. The resultant affects you in different ways of life. To find out if you have different zodiac representation in your personal chart, plot it in https://www.hofs.sg/bazi-calculator.
