Which animal signs are 'lucky' in Year of the Sheep

MANILA - Want to know what's in store for you for 2015? Will it still be a bad time to start a new relationship? Will conflicting countries reach their boiling point? A feng shui expert revealed her predictions for the coming Year of the Sheep.

In a press conference held on Wednesday, Maritess Allen explained that the forecasts for the Year of the Sheep -- officially starting on February 19 -- are better than the previous lunar year.

"It is not super perfect but at least we are getting there. In a scale of 1 to 10, we are on a 6 or a 7 so we are in an ascending order, which is a very good sign," she said.

Allen revealed that the feng shui chart for 2015 features all five elements, namely: wood, metal, fire, earth, and water, adding that this is a "very rare and an unusual phenomenon."

And while 2014 was filled with misunderstandings leading to conflicts, especially in new relationships and between countries, the brand new year will be a more calm one, according to Allen.

'Lucky signs'

Allen went on to share which animal signs are "lucky" during the Year of the Sheep.

Aside from those who are born in the year, people under the Horse and the Monkey animal signs are predicted to get the blessing of the "prosperity star," which is associated with good fortune, she said.

Other animal signs that are predicted to be "lucky" next year are the Rat, which will have the "wealth star," and the Tiger and the Ox.

Those born under the latter two are said to receive "unexpected gifts" in 2015.
