Dogs are faithful and honest to their loved ones. Most Dogs worry a lot, have a sharp tongue, and tend to find fault in every thing. They are just, fair and good problem solvers. Dogs happen to be very dependable friends and great conversationalists. They however, have a propensity to hold and linger on with the grudges till those are appeased. They prefer to have stable and loving relationships. Though it takes a bit of time for the Dogs, yet when they have found their soul mates, they would be faithful to their partners for life. Resembling the animal influencing their horoscope, Dogs are devoted to those they love. They are usually successful business people but are quite unlucky in their romantic life. Dogs can turn out to be rigid and temperamental; and often cover up using white lies.

Dependable, generous, loyal, intelligent, patient, honest and sensitive to others.

Inflexible, nervous, restless, self-righteous, quick-tempered, critical, petty, pessimistic, have bad habit of fibbing and prone to mood swings.

24 Mountain Direction for the Dog in 2012

After being on a roll last year 2012 may prove to be a test of the Dog's diligence, fortitude and perseverance. If care is not taken, you may have to deal with conflicts, violence, financial loss and a host of others problems brought by ill-intentioned stars. These are the Yearly Conflict Star and Yin House Stars on your sides and the Sui Po and violent #7 Star in your home direction. As if these aren't troublesome enough, you have to contend with the wrath of the Grand Duke Jupiter for facing him. It may seem like you are being attacked from all directions, in fact even in your own home location! But don't be disheartened; though a nuisance, these afflictions are not difficult to deal with. Let's start with appeasing the God of the Year – for this you can always rely on his pet the Pi Yao. Display a good-sized Pi Yao in your home location of North West and facing the Tai Sui, i.e. South East. This remedy is also suitable to neutralize the Sui Po which always occupies the sector opposite the Tai Sui; hence it is also called the Tai Sui Conflict or Year Clash Star. For good measure, you can add a Tai Sui Plaque here. Next, the vicious #7 Robbery Star. The time tested cure for this is the Blue Rhinoceros and Elephant, either in the form of a figurine or an Anti-Burglary Plaque. The Blue Rhino and Elephant with Water Urn is ideal as water is strongly recommended in your sector to reduce the afflictive #7 which has been strengthened by the Metal energy of the North West. To counter the Yin House chi, use Yang energy such as red items and bright lights. A Red Crystal Ball is ideal as it also takes care of the Yearly Conflict Star and boosts the Dog's Earth energy which is hurt by the lack of Fire in this year's chart. All Dogs should carry protective amulets such as the Fire Totem Talisman, Tai Sui Amulet or Annual Protection Amulet.

Despite the numerous afflictions you have to contend with in 2012, your success luck is still strong. Be diligent in taking the right steps to neutralize all the negative elements in your path and many of you will enjoy a great year with many triumphant moments.

As a final measure, remember to keep your Horoscope Allies and Secret Friend close to you. Pair up with your ally the Tiger, who enjoys good fortune in 2012. Together, you will generate powerful synergy to take full advantage of whatever comes your way. With the help and support of friends and allies, obstacles will be less overwhelming, good fortune will be multiplied and success shared is so much sweeter.

Besides the influence of your bazi and animal sign, your luck for the year is also dependent on the locations of the monthly flying stars which may bring help or hindrances. Due to the astrological flight of these stars, your luck for the year is not stagnant but will change subtly, depending on whether friendly or hostile stars are visiting. Things will be much easier if you take advantage of the luck brought by the beneficial stars whilst lying low and taking remedial actions when hostile stars come visiting.
