A new 12-year cycle started at Feb 7,Chinese Astrology Predictions 2008: The Dragon Articles 2008 with the Year of the Rat according to the Chinese calendar. This important cycle (or era) ends at Feb 5, 2019. It is a 12-year period generally ruled by the universal element of Earth. There are also other elements which rule over each of the 12 years. For example Earth rules over the first and the second year of the cycle (2008, 2009) while Metal rules over the third and the fourth year of the cycle (2010, 2011). The year 2008 is also ruled by the sign of the Rat and has a Yang (male) nature. So 2008 is the Yang year of the Earth Rat. What are the predictions for the sign of the Dragon for 2008? This is what this article is all about.

Dragon people in the new era will wait as usual for their favorable year to come before they reveal their plans. It's not until the year 2012, that they will start spreading their dominating energy for all the world to see. 2012 is a year associated with many prophecies about the end of the world as we know it. It is a year when the Dragon will rise and start ruling. Until then, Dragons must make their plans and visualize their goals.

2008, the year of the Rat makes Dragon people extra eccentric and very sociable. It is a good year for all kinds of social meetings, festivals, feasts, parties etc. They will never go unnoticed in such occasions. It is also a great year to increase the number of their admirers and friends. Dragon people, although powerful leaders themselves, they rely on others to achieve their higher goals.

The element of Earth which rules over 2008, makes Dragon people a bit more manipulative, and arrogant. This is a behavior they must try to avoid though. They should approach everything and everyone with a more diplomatic and supportive way. Their unique attitude and self confidence will help them achieve that. The Earth's effect will do more. Dragon people during 2008 will be selfish, suspicious and demanding causing frustration to others. They should work on these difficult issues.

The Yang (male) nature of 2008 will increase the Dragon's sense of duty. It will also make it easy for others to take advantage of the Dragon's loyalty and dignity. This is something people under this sign should pay attention to.

Here are my predictions using the five star system. This has to do with the overall positive energy that the Dragon will receive during 2008. One star (*) means less energy than expected, while five stars (*****) mean more energy than expected. Three stars (***) mean equal amount of positive and negative energy which is a balanced situation:
