2012 AD :: The Year of the Black Water Dragon

The Dragon represents unbridled, untouchable power. It is the only animal in the zodiac that is also a God. Coupled with the feng shui ‘restart’, its reign means that in place of any roots, there will be intense dynamism. The Water element of this Dragon makes that change even more fluid, fast and unstoppable.
