Happy New Year!














Year MMVII (2007) is year of the pig in the Chinese calendar.

In China, the Pig ( 亥 ) (a more correct form would be the Boar) is associated with fertility and virility. To bear children in the year of the pig is considered very fortunate, for they will be happy and honest. I actually had a dream 2 nights ago that I had a pet pig and that my sister and I couldn't get enough of hugging and squeezing it. I did not know it was year of the pig until today so that is v. odd, non?!

Well Happy New Year - get out and get some exercise as am sure you all ate more than usual!
