Well, then Happy New Chinese Year! :howl: :oo

Year of the Fire Dog, to be precise - and, as some mentioned earlier, year of the werewolf!

Yes.

The elements are also associated with colours. The traditional correspondences are green to Wood, red to Fire, brown to Earth, white to Metal, and black to Water.

Well ... then indicates the color the element and thus your information is redundant :P

But besides this ... merry thanks for the clarification, Figarou! :D

Heh...scratch that. I'm not a tiger. I'm actually an ox. I've never taken into account the fact that I was born in January, and the Chinese New Year doesn't start the same day ours does...so, according to the Chinese, I guess I was born in 1985...making me a wood ox. Delightful.

Hell, compared to wood ox, fire tiger doesn't seem so bad anymore. :(
