2011 Predictions
It was a jungle out there. Did we survive and roar with success in Tiger Year 2010?
The stock market was heading north in the earlier
months until it took a hit in April/May 2010 from the
European sovereign debt crisis. It picked up mo-
mentum in June 2010 and the Straits Times Index
(STI) is now hovering around the 3100-point level.
Property prices climbed steadily as well, sounding
alarm bells along the way and indirectly putting
wedding bells on hold. The authorities stepped in
by imposing new regulations to cool down the siz-
zling hot property market before it got out of con-
trol.
Last year, ProsperTimes™ Jan issue, 2010 Tiger
Year Predictions, was spot on! We mentioned
about international conflicts too. History repeated
itself in 2010. Tensions escalated and tempera-
tures rose between the 2 Koreas on the peninsular
after the North Korean artillery bombarded one of
the South Korean island in Nov 2010.
The ferocious Golden Tiger will leap out of our
path soon and makes way for the hopping
Golden Rabbit.
The Rabbit zodiac, the fourth animal in the
Chinese horoscope, will be taking the centre-
stage soon. Will we witness a calmer and more
harmonious 2011? How is the stock market
outlook and will the property prices rise further?
This issue of ProsperTimes™ will bring you some
insights and snippets on what lies in store for us in
the coming year.

Similarly, the Year of the Rabbit, 2011, is symbolised by a Heavenly Stem and an Earthly
Branch (辛卯) in the Hsia Calendar.
The Heavenly Stem xin (辛) represents Yin Metal and the Earthly Branch mao (卯) represents Yin Wood. This is a Metal Rabbit year that implies
Metal “sitting” on top of Wood.
According to the Cycle of Birth (生) and Destruc-tion (克), which governs the inter-relationship between the Five Elements, Metal will conquer or
destroy Wood (金克木). This is a sign of conflict or disharmony. Different from Tiger Year, xin (辛) Metal symbolises a dagger and it implies hidden
danger or threats that are not immediately
obvious to the common people.
Exchanging alleging remarks or gossips during
informal cocktail parties may bring about detri-
mental effects. There will still be disagreements
but these are of a smaller scale. On surface, peo-
ple may be on friendly terms and enjoying cordial
relationships but deep within, there could be
The Hsia Calendar (夏历) is an amazingly accurate time computation system that is
widely used by the Chinese communities to
perform destiny analysis, fortune telling and
to understand the climatic changes.
The unique feature of this system is that every
year, every month, every day and every hour
is represented by 2 characters, namely the
Heavenly Stem (天干) and the Earthly Branch (地支).
The system encompasses 10 Heavenly Stems
and 12 Earthly Branches, and each of the
Heavenly Stem or the Earthly Branch is repre-
sented by Yin and Yang (阴阳) and one of the Five Elements (五行).
The Five Elements are representation of the
basic components of everything in the Uni-
verse. The relationship between the Ele-
ments, which comprise of Water (水), Wood (木), Fire (火), Earth (土) and Metal (金), will enable us to predict one’s fortunes or luck
and determine what’s coming our way.

brewing animosity and sabotaging behind the
scene. Sniff out suppressed resentment within
your team and nib it in the bud before it gets out
of control. True sincerity and constructive com-
munication in a timely manner will prevail and
save the day.
The most recent years that both Metal and Wood
elements appeared together are Year 2004, 2005
and 2010. Year 2004, 2005 and 2010 are years of
Wood Monkey (甲申), Wood Rooster (乙酉) and Metal Tiger (庚寅) respectively with Wood “sitting” on Metal or vice versa. During these years, we
witnessed military confrontation between North
and South Korea in 2010 and a series of terrorist
attacks, most notably were bombings in Madrid,
London, Bali and Iraq. On 26 Dec 2004, mankind
experienced the giant tsunami that brought
death tolls to hundreds of thousands and
changed the coastlines of many countries.
The Hsia Calendar is formulated on a 60-year
cycle (六十甲子年). This means that the same pair of Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch (辛卯) was also experienced in Year 1951. During this year,
espionage between nations was rampant and
the Korean War, which started in the previous
year, continued and resulting in more people los-
ing their lives. In the same year, King Abdullah I of
Jordan and the Pakistani Prime Minister were as-
sassinated.
From historical occurrences, Year 2011 is again
unlikely to be a peaceful year, with continuing
conflicts or disagreements and instances of espio-
nage and assassination.
The Heavenly Stem xin (辛), which is represented by the Yin Metal element, is likened to a dagger
or jewelry. It exudes an air of gracefulness and
flair, while preserving steel-liked characteristics
within. It symbolises high tolerance, authoritative
mannerism and ostentatious behaviour. This
could imply that Rabbit Year 2011 is a year of
hidden conflicts with different sides displaying
untrue impressions of themselves. Face issue is all
the more important, leading to more people
putting up a brave front. Do not judge a book by
its cover. There could be more than meets the
eye.
The Rabbit mao (卯) belongs to the Wood element (木) and it represents the peak of spring. During this time, trees have grown and
blossomed. As a result, their huge crown
canopies become vulnerable to gales, leading to
broken branches, fallen leaves or even uprooted
trees. This implies injuries or broken limbs. Exercise
caution in your regular gym workout or golfing
sessions.
Mao (卯) also signifies the Birth (长生) of Yin Water (癸水), which could mean more rain or water-related incidences in Rabbit Year 2011. Beware
of floods and ensure that proper evacuation
measures are in place.

The Rabbit mao (卯) is also the Flower of Romance Star (桃花). The Flower of Romance Star governs relationship and sociability.
Year 2011 will see more couples tying the knot and walk-
ing down the red carpet. People born in the Year of
Tiger (寅), Horse (午) or Dog (戌) tend to be under strong influence of this star. Their social circle is likely to widen,
they will be popular among their peers and the
likelihood of these people getting hitched is higher.
On the hindsight, Rabbit Year 2011 could also be
a year when there will be more relationship
entanglement issues, love scandals or
extra martial affairs. Married couples
are advised to remain faithful to their
spouse or risk facing the wrath of
social backlash.

The Rabbit (卯) is in direct clash with the Rooster (酉). This is a clash (六冲) between the Wood (木) and Metal (金) elements. Such a clash often re-lates to relationship issues and frequent arguments
between a couple. It is advisable to clear misun-
derstandings through open communications.
As the Rabbit (卯) is in direct clash with the Rooster (酉), also known as Six Clashes (六冲), and causes an Ingratitude Clash (无恩之刑) with the Rat (子), a Conflicting Clash (相害) with the Dragon (辰) and a Related Clash (相破) with the Horse (午), people born in the Year of the Rooster, Rat, Dragon or
Horse have to be especially cautious. A clash of-
ten results in more changes or life developments
in that year and it also implies more challenges
and there could be health related issues as well.
It is therefore recommended for people born in
these years, except for people born in the Year of
Dragon, to carry a Dog pendant so as to alleviate
the negative effects of the clash. People born in
the Year of Dragon may carry a Tiger pendant
instead.
In Rabbit Year 2011, the direction of the Grand
Duke (太岁) is East (东方). Avoid travelling directly towards this direction and try not to carry out
major or extensive renovation works in the East
sector of your house.
Some examples of famous people who are born
in the Rooster Year and clash with the Rabbit in
2011 are David Tao (陶喆), Jennifer Lopez and Fernando Alonso. Those who are born on a
Rooster Day will be affected by the clash and
may face relationship challenges in 2011 as well.
These people include Japanese singer, Ayumi
Hamasaki and Singapore actor, Christopher Lee
(李铭顺).

Another significant star that most parents would be interested is the Academic Star (文昌). Rabbit Year 2011 sees the Academic Star (文昌) residing in the North sector (352.5° –
7.5°). With proper guidance, school children who have their study desks placed in this sector
will be able to enjoy good grades and success in examinations. Please bear in
mind that this is a generic application. A more detailed and accurate analysis
by a professional Feng Shui practitioner is still required for
a more customised and exact placement. Academic Star

The Rabbit (卯) combines with the Dog (戌) in what is commonly known as the Six Combinations (六合), and with the Pig (亥) and Goat (未) in Triple Combinations (三合). People born in the year of Dog, Pig and Goat will therefore be in harmony and enjoy
good luck in Rabbit Year 2011.
However, this is only a generic assessment and should not be taken strictly or
seriously as an analysis of one’s fortunes or destiny. Four Pillars of Destiny or BaZi (also
commonly known as Eight Characters, 八字), which is based on one’s date and time of birth, offers a much more accurate and detailed analysis of one’s destiny, luck
and fortunes.

People are also more injury prone with higher
likelihood of injuries inflicted on the limbs or neck.
Take care when you exercise and make it a good
habit to do some stretching exercises first before
your workout.
Besides regular exercise (not strenuous exercises)
to increase our metabolism rate and improve our
immune system, which is represented by the Wa-
ter element (水), sufficient intake of Vitamin B, C and E, which are effective anti-oxidants, will also
help in alleviating the imbalances.
Health Matters Different body parts or organs are
represented by different Heavenly Stems (天干) and Earthly Branches (地支).
Year 2011 is governed by the Golden Rabbit
(辛卯). Metal, generally, is associated with the lungs, and Wood is associated with the liver.
People who are born in the Year of Rooster
(especially in 1945 and 1957), have to take extra
care of their health in Rabbit Year 2011. Health
problems related to the liver, lungs or respiratory
system could arise. Reduce your alcoholic
consumption and refrain from smoking.

October period. Unlike the previous year when
we witnessed favourable reports towards the end,
the chances of seeing a repeat in Rabbit Year
2011 are low. Know your limits and pull out before
it is too late.
The property market for Rabbit Year 2011 will still
be vibrant and active. Rising rate may have
stabilised but prices may still be heading north
though at a slower rate. Amid pressure from the
ground, the authorities may then review the
regulations that they have put in place and make
some fine tuning to the existing ones, hoping
again to cool down the sizzling hot industry. As
long as there is a strong demand for housing on
our limited land, market forces will again push up
the prices. Overall, the property market is still
vibrant in Rabbit Year 2011 and is very much alive
and kicking. The chances of property prices
coming down are slim.
Employing elemental influences to predict the ups
and downs of the stock market is a very basic
form of analysis. Using this technique to forecast
macro economic trends still has its own limitations.
A more detailed and accurate analysis would be
using the Four Pillars of Destiny or commonly
known as BaZi (四柱八字命理分析) to predict each individual’s fortune. Only then, we will be able to
tell if the changing stock market or property mar-
ket is performing to the individual’s advantage.
The information presented in this section is far from
conclusive and should not be used as a basis for
speculation.
STOCK & PROPERTY MARKET
We were quite accurate in predicting the stock
market outlook in Tiger Year 2010. We saw ups
and downs, and we were quite right in forecast-
ing the timing of the upward trends too. By the
end of 2010, the Straits Times Index (STI) was
hovering in close proximity to the 3100 mark. Will
we continue to see a bullish market in Rabbit Year
2011?
Well, it’s going to be a roller coaster ride in Rabbit
Year 2011. Maybe even a rougher one than the
previous year. Let’s face it. There isn’t a stock
market that will rise forever and similarly, there isn’t
one that is doomed to free fall. What goes up has
to come down eventually, and when it hits the
bottom, it will start to rise again. It’s only natural.
Just like the relativity of Yin and Yang.
There is no absolute winner in a stock market. The
only way to profit from it is to maximise your win-
nings and minimise your losses. The crucial point
here is timing. Enter the market at the right time
and exit when the wind is changing its direction.
Ride the wave or risk drowning in the rough seas.
No one is an expert in the volatile stock market.
Using Chinese metaphysical forecasting method
and analysing elemental influences, the stock
market outlook in Rabbit Year 2011 seems rocky.
The curve during the first couple of months seems
relatively flat. It starts to undergo correction and
becomes erratic until the middle of the year. The
upward trend seems to be more prominent during
the mid year and loses steam in the September /

tougher competition and may encounter
intervention from relevant authorities too. These
include the agriculture, publishing, paper, forestry,
fashion, furniture and recycling businesses.
Generally, a tough and challenging year ahead
for these businesses.
The Wood (木) element in Rabbit Year 2011 is also a good sign for the Metal (金) element and Water (水) element businesses. The Wood represents the wealth for the Metal element businesses, while it
represents productivity and creativity for the
Water element businesses. These include the
banking, jewellery, industrial machinery,
computer, high-tech industries, shipping, trading,
tourism, logistic and transport businesses. They will
enjoy better luck in the 1st quarter of the year.
The dominant Metal (金) element in Rabbit Year 2011 bodes well for the Earth (土) element and Fire (火) element businesses. These include the property- or real estate-related businesses,
construction and mining industries; and finance,
electronics products, power & energy, oil & gas,
lighting, food and entertainment businesses.
The Fire (火) element businesses will enjoy favour-able wealth luck in the 3rd quarter but competi-
tion is keener, while the Earth (土) element busi-nesses enjoy good times in the 3rd and 4th quarter
of the year but regulatory issues could pose some
challenges.
The least prosperous in Rabbit Year 2011 is the
Wood (木) element businesses. Not only is the wealth luck absent for these businesses, they face

Rabbit Year 2011 with
Leaping Success
WhoWhoWho wouldn’t want a good start in the new year? After your fill of festive fun,
sumptuous food and delicious cookies, it’s time to get back to work. For leaping
success, I have selected some auspicious dates on when you should return to work:
8 Feb 2011 (Tuesday) 正月初六正月初六正月初六正月初六 – not suitable for people born in Year of Rat
14 Feb 2011 (Monday) 正月十二正月十二正月十二正月十二 – not suitable for people born in Year of Horse
Get a good rest and be ready to hop onto the wagon of success and prosperity.
I wish you a Happy and Prosperous Rabbit Year ahead!
Environmental or cosmic energies flow and exist in cyclical periods and change from year to year
(风水轮流转). This implies that positive and negative energies exist in different directions in differ-
ent years. In Rabbit Year 2011, using Flying Star of Feng Shui (玄空飞星), Star 7 takes precedence
and is the dominant star. The Flying Star Chart for Rabbit Year 2011 is plotted as shown:
Star 7, which is represented by the Metal (金) element, takes centre-stage in Rabbit Year 2011. As Star 7 is considered inauspicious and Metal supports Water (金生水), this means we may encounter more floods or water-related incidences in Rabbit Year 2011. Beware of robberies and
fire outbreaks too. Star 7 also symbolises young ladies or girls. Parents have to be mindful that
there could more misfortune or accidents affecting young ladies or girls in this year. This is
especially so for those born in the Year of Rooster.
Star 5, which is the most calamitous star, arrives in the East. This inauspicious star will cause critical
illness if activated. It is recommended for homes that face East or have their main doors facing
East to hang a six-rod wind chime or 6 ancient metal coins to dissipate the negative energies. The
negative energies of Star 5 are extremely potent in March 2011.
Special precautions have to be taken for inauspicious Star 2 and 3 too. Star 2 and 3 arrive in the
South and North respectively. Star 2 brings about sickness, while Star 3 causes quarrels and legal
entanglements. A six-rod wind chime can be used to dispel Star 2 inauspicious energies. To
dissolve the bad energies of Star 3, a lamp or a red mat / rug can be used.
For Rabbit Year 2011, the most auspicious sector is the Northwest. To activate the good energies,
a lamp or a red mat / rug can be placed in this sector of the house. Placing a water feature in
this sector can bring about prosperity and unexpected wealth! Another auspicious direction is
the West. Installing a hi-fi system or TV in this sector can activate the positive energies.
We hope you have a better understanding of what lies ahead of us in Rabbit Year 2011.
We would like to wish you a very happy and prosperous Rabbit Year 2011!

People born in the year of the Rat are intelligent and witty. They pos-
sess strong leadership qualities and they are well-liked by others. They
have quick reaction and are able to add joy to an occasion in a sponta-
neous manner. They are also meticulous and curious. They like inno-
vation and put their creativity to good use. However, they could be
scheming and overambitious at times.
Famous people born in the year of Rat include George Washington,
Zinedine Zidane and William Shakespeare.
Rat’s Overall Luck in Rabbit Year 2011 Lucky stars are shinning on people born in the year of the Rat.
If they abide by the rules and stay in the line, they will enjoy
prosperity, good wealth luck and success in their careers. It will
be easy for these people to garner support and receive assis-
tance from people around them. Making good use of available
resources and staying humble will allow people born in the year
of the Rat to overcome challenges and difficulties along the
way.
A good year for romance for the singles but married couples
have to beware of scandals or affairs. There is also a possibility
that school children born in the year of the Rat may enjoy good
scholastic achievements.
Especially for people born in 1936 and 1996, there could also be
health issues relating to eye diseases or injuries to the shoulder.

1949 (己丑), 1961 (辛丑),
1973 (癸丑), 1985 (乙丑),
1997 (丁丑), 2009 (己丑)
People born in the year of the Ox are honest, reliable and hardwork-
ing. Unless faced with exceptional circumstances, they keep their
promises very well. As they stick to their guns and do not show their
emotions openly, they are sometimes seemed as stubborn, demanding
and unapproachable. If you are looking for a romantic relationship
with someone born in the year of the Ox, you are most likely to be dis-
appointed. They are not commonly known as romantic lovers. Al-
though they may not be experts in socialising, people born in the year
of the Ox are friendly and they are able to obtain the trust of their
superiors. As they are trustworthy, they are also the ones who can
keep secrets very well.
Famous people born in the year of the Ox include Barack Obama and
Walt Disney.
Ox’s Overall Luck in Rabbit Year 2011 It’s not going to be straightforward for people born in the year
of the Ox in Rabbit year 2011. Their wealth luck is dented and
there could instances of financial loss for these people.
Not a good year to travel overseas. If there is a need to travel,
beware of accidents and ensure that a comprehensive travel in-
surance portfolio is in place. Try to keep a low profile and avoid
getting embroiled in disputes or arguments. Know your limits
and it’s not the right time to play hero. Moreover, be mindful of
legal entanglement issues and make an effort to read the fine
print when signing a contract. When it comes to money matters,
it’s best for people born in the year of the Ox to keep a cool
head and not be rash in their actions.

寅 Tiger
1926 (丙寅), 1938 (戊寅),
1950 (庚寅), 1962 (壬寅),
1974 (甲寅), 1986 (丙寅),
1998 (戊寅), 2010 (庚寅)
The Tiger symbolises power, passion and courage. People born in
the year of the Tiger are egoistic and rebellious. They like to
take risks and do things their own way. They usually do not
compromise. They may seem difficult to get along with but they
are man of word and helpful people. As they have very high self
confidence, they are sometimes impulsive and rash in making
decisions, resulting in less optimal outcome. They like to take
control of the situation, which explains why they are usually the
domineering ones in the family.
Famous people born in the year of the Tiger include Victoria
Beckham and Tom Cruise.
Tiger’s Overall Luck in Rabbit Year 2011 After a tumultuous year, people born in the year of the Tiger
may be able to breathe a little easier but they should not be
