This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

Gung Hay Fat Choy
Day 120: Gung hay fat choy! If you were born in the Year of the Dragon, you may be intelligent and strong, but those characteristics can also make you pushy or aggresive. You do not get along with Dogs, Goats or Oxen, but you are compatible with Monkeys and Rats. For those who don't know, the Chinese Zodiac is different from the western zodiac in that it is divided into a twelve-year cycle rather than twelve month-long periods. The sequence begins with the Year of the Mouse. Dragon is the fifth year in the cycle, and includes 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, etc. Each year has an associated "heavenly" element, in this case wood (yang). The lucky colour for this Wood Dragon year is gold, representing wealth and prosperity. May it come your way!
