dear JY, I have bought the BaZi- The Destiny Code, and is surprised to find out from BaZi calculation that my celestial animal sign is Rooster instead of Monkey which i assumed all my life. I was born in 1969, 9th Feb. at 9.30am.. which by chinese lunar calendar was year of monkey. However, base on chinese solar calendar i'm considered a Rooster now.. Does it mean that when i refer to .. say your annual outlook for 2005 or any of these outlook predictions on TV/Newspaper/magazines, i should start to read under Rooster sign ?? When i search into the thousand year calendar book, manually looking my BaZi... the month, date and time is still remain in the year of monkey, it's just the year.. i'm considered a rooster... is this correct? a bit of confusion though. Anyway, i would appreciate if you could clear the air for me.. thanks best regards

Dear Sebastian, the Solar calendar is used for BaZi - so your Year pillar is Yin Earth-Rooster. The best method of forecasting against the annual luck would (naturally) require the entire BaZi chart. Cheers! SN
