Shakira’s time to plan for a baby

In Arabic, the name “Shakira” means “woman full of grace,” a fitting name for this Latin-pop superstar. Shakira has revealed that she is not a “traditionalist” as she puts it. In a recent interview she dishes about babies, marriage, and a new album. Shakira has said that she wants lots of babies with boyfriend Antonio de la Rua. They have lived together happily for eight years without a wedding. Let’s consult Astrology to see how their love will fare this year!

Born February 2, 1977, Shakira’s primary personality traits are represented by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Fire Dragon. De la Rua was born February 26, 1973 making his sign the Water Ox.

For March 2009, their Love rating is 18%. Their chances of success in love this month are poor, but they have more positive than negative factors in their overall chart comparisons. They both tend to be more comfortable using logic rather than following emotions alone. Although they don't have inherent conflicts and generally get along, they are two strong, stubborn people who will inevitably clash. In Chinese Astrology we observe that of all the elements, Shakira’s element of Fire has the most extreme impact in relationships. The impact can be for the good or the bad. Above all, Fire is animated and hot, drawing people in closer but also creating the potential for conflict. However, Chinese Astrology indicates that their sign mix is actually very positive. Their similarities and differences complement each other very well, which has enabled them to live peaceably together for such a long time; They're made for each other.

Chinese Astrology also indicates that Shakira might have the greatest potential for success at the mid-life. She is likely to have sufficient energy throughout her life to accomplish her goals. It is in her power to establish and nourish supportive relationships. This is also a good time for Shakira and de la Rua to evaluate their relationships and make sure they are supportive of each other’s goals. Between the two of them, they probably have the energy to achieve them.

This year could be a good time for the couple to raise a family, if that is their chosen path. Shakira will probably be best served by deepening her existing relationships, rather than creating many new ones this year. Basically, her continued success and happiness is up to her, achievable with hard work and wise choices. So, it could be the right time to plan for a baby. Chinese Astrology hopes to see the couple holding hands long into the future as a happy, loving family.

Would Kelly Clarkson’s Life Suck Without A Boyfriend?

Kelly Clarkson, 2002 American Idol, has just set a huge record on the Billboard Hot 100 with the biggest leap to No. 1 in the chart's 50-year history. Her hot single, "My Life Would Suck Without You," rocketed from #97 to #1 after selling 280,000 digital downloads in its first week of availability. The song is the first ever to make such massive leap. Let’s see if her life would really suck without a boyfriend?!

Born April 24, 1982, her primary personality traits are represented by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Water Dog. According to Chinese Astrology, the Water Dog is the gentlest and most intuitive of the Dog family. She will tend to be popular at home and in group settings because she is a good communicator, using the spoken or written word, and sometimes both.

This year Clarkson’s 2009 Personal Forecast shows 52% favorable days, with five months favorable overall. Four months will be neutral and three months will be unfavorable. This year won’t be a bad one for Dogs, but will present a number of challenges. Clarkson’s patience will certainly be tested in more than one instance. Although Dogs and Oxen are far from bosom buddies, they can get along just fine as long as they stay out of each other’s way. In other words, her chances for personal success won't be foiled by the Ox’s influence.

Astrology indicates that Clarkson can achieve new levels in her relationships this year. People think highly of her, and she is a well-respected individual for her work ethic and devotion to her loved ones. She should focus on being more open to two-way communication; she may at times be unwilling to change her views, even when her partner has a valid point. If she can work on this issue, she will find her relations with family members and friends very gratifying in 2009.

Chinese Astrology predicts that a true, cozy, sweet and lasting love will show up toward the end of this year, in an interesting disguise. A seemingly ordinary colleague or old school acquaintance could turn up at some odd venue when she least expects it. Clarkson should welcome this unexpected charmer into her life. She will have earned the happiness he may bring. So, while her life wouldn’t suck without boyfriend, a new relationship development this year could make it far more interesting.

Welcome to the month of the Fire Rabbit

This lovely creature, usually friendly, calm, and intelligent, can sometimes be reserved, even a little shy. Fire,however,adds magnetism and flair. The Rabbit is a heart sign, that is, someone who makes decisions based on emotions as opposed to logic. Therefore, expect this month to contain more emotional roller coasters than usual. Then again, that can be a needed relief since the year of the Ox in general tends to be a cold, insensitive one.

The Fire Rabbit has a thirst for action in life. Its element provides a certain excitement. On the other hand arrival of the normally unobtrusive Rabbit signals thirty days having a reduced chance of ardent confrontations or fights. Selfishness, however, may rise since the Rabbit loves living in comfort, putting its own luxury first. There may be some easy going, good times in store, which can be a change of pace from the hard working year of the Ox. Although the Rabbit is typically graceful and kind, it can sometimes be indifferent and even volatile. This can result in a gentler, more carefree time; nevertheless, it could cause pent up feelings and random outbursts.

Everything will be a little more flamboyant during the fiery reign of the Fire Rabbit. The Rabbit is notorious for going in style, so expect people to dress more elegantly than the rest of the year, but also look forward to added pizza thanks to ruling Fire. The Rabbit's influence can sometimes lead to rashness, but it should be tempered by the sturdy Ox. Overall, expect expect life to be spiced up with extra style and heightened emotions.

Note: The sign of the Rabbit is known as the Cat in some cultures, especially Vietnam.

Penelope Cruz: Chinese Astrology Forecast for Life After the Oscar

Penelope Cruz won the first Academy Award of the night at the Oscars last week, claiming Best Supporting Actress for her role as a tempestuous artist in Woody Allen's Spanish romance "Vicky Cristina Barcelona". The honor caps a big weekend for Cruz, who is fresh off her win Saturday for the same prize at the Spirit Awards, which pays tribute to independent films. Cruz is the first female Spanish actor to win an Oscar.

Born April 28, 1974, Cruz’s primary personality traits are ruled by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal, the Wood Tiger. Let’s see what’s in the Chinese Astrology cards for this sexy Spanish star.

From the outset, this Earth Ox year may present some true challenges for the Tiger. The year of the Ox presents an overwhelming influence upon the untamed Tiger to maintain an uncharacteristically steady and well-disciplined pace. That is not to say that there won't be opportunities for great achievement. However, it would be more precise to say that this year will benefit the Tiger in the areas of experience, and laying a solid foundation for the long term. She will have to be resourceful.

It will be beneficial for Cruz to be cautious when it comes to career decisions in the Year of the Ox. This means she should think carefully before choosing new films. She should also be conscientious in her responsibilities and persistently impress her capabilities upon others, as this recognition will further her goals in the future.

In collecting her Academy Award, Cruz follows in the footsteps of her boyfriend Javier Bardem, who became the first Spanish actor to win an Oscar last year. Actually, her romantic relationship may be one of the more favorable areas of her life during the Year of the Ox. She can look forward to joyful times with her loved one. Perhaps Cruz’s and Bardem’s shared Oscar honors will contribute to their happiness together this year.

Cruz will not want to neglect the other relationships in her life, however. She should stay mindful that those around her hold her in high regard. This esteem is valuable to her, so she will not want to jeopardize these relations by dismissing others’ opinions, or by being too stubborn. If she maintains a healthy awareness and concern for the thoughts and feelings of other important figures in her life, her path will remain smooth.

For Cruz, and others born under the Wood Tiger sign, Chinese Astrology advises reliance on boldness and quick wit in the year of the Ox. Furthermore, this is not the time to disregard the views of those around you by being too independent or taking unnecessary risks.

The Asian pop princess in Chinese Astrology card

Boa Kwon, a young Korean singer, is attracting fame in the U.S.A. with her latest hit single Eat You Up. It was quickly successful in sales due in part to a strong online advertising campaign, and was a top breakout disc reaching No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Play chart—marking possibly the most successful debut into the U.S. music market by a Korean singer. A new English-language album will be released in March 2009.

Let’s see what Chinese Astrology has in store for Boa in the coming months. Born November 5th 1986, her primary personality traits are represented by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Fire Tiger.

The Year of the Earth Ox 2009 may present some true challenges for the Tiger, but it would be more precise to say that this year will bring growth and experience to Tigers, laying a solid foundation for the years to come. People born under the Tiger sign will have to be resourceful this year, so Boa should rely on her boldness and quick wit as her allies in the year of the Ox.

Career-wise it will be beneficial for Tigers to be cautious in the coming year. Boa should stay keenly aware of the views of those around her, as this is not a year that favors too much independence of action, or taking any unnecessary risks. Persistence in her responsibilities this year and the favorable impression she makes others will lead to progress toward her future goals.

Boa’s 2009 Forecast warns that March will be a month to be careful about impulsive spending, as it could greatly affect her budget. Though March will only be 38% favorable for Boa, she should not anticipate serious problems. March is the month of the Earth Dragon, and the Dragon is known to add even more flare to the Tiger's impulsive nature. This could be most noticeable in fashion. She may show up at a release party slightly overdressed, but being the charismatic Tiger, this shouldn't be problematic.

Boa may find she needs to compromise on certain controversial opinions this year in order to avoid arguments that have no favorable solution. This may be a suitable time to release her new album if she heeds this advice, and we wish the Asian pop princess much continued successes in her American debut.
