welcome to camp telophase

I typoed Sanzo's name as 'Snazo' in a comment here yesterday, and thanks to the various comments and the Powah of the Intarwebs, we now have this gag strip by the_z.

Hey, I laughed. :)

So I'm currently mildly addicted to this automatically-generated daily Chinese horoscope, not in least because my birth year, instead of being Rooster, or even Cock, is translated as Chicken.

And it has this lovely really untranslatable chart:

Hour	Day [ You ]	Month	Year
Male Wood	Male Earth	Male Fire	Female Earth
Green Rat	Brown Tiger	Red Rat	Brown Chicken

You are Brown Tiger, born in the year of Brown Chicken. The upper character in DAY column represents the person. So you are equivalent to Male Earth. The symbols in the upper row of birth chart are called Heavenly Stems. The animals in the lower row in are called Earthly Branches.

Anyway, it claimed that today I'd get money, and woo - a friend just sent me some he owed me. But Tuesday's prediction is a thing of beauty, because although it says money will go out, it also says:

Pig and Tiger have an attraction relationship and appear in your birth chart and cycle. When they are together, the hint of your fortune is "Money goes, then career comes." This relationship is to do with your career. You might have to invest some money on your career on this day. Or you need to hire people to take care of some trouble.

I am ALL ABOUT any horoscope that tells me I might have to hire "people" to "take care" of "trouble."
