2012 Chinese Horoscope: Dog

The Year of the Water Dragon - January 23, 2012 to February 9, 2013 - can bring powerful challenges to step out of your comfort zone. Influential people who may be somewhat irritating can prove to be valuable mentors who push you beyond what you thought was reasonable or possible.

Water helps ease some of the stress. It supports teamwork and a greater willingness to cooperate. You have the courage to speak your mind. A Dog who stands firm against the forces that undermine his or her community can be a powerful force for good. Unwavering personal integrity can make you a hero of sorts.
