Power struggle anyone?

With the Lunar New Year fast approaching expect to read a lot about Chinese Horoscope and Feng Shui with regard to the new year that is going to greet us - the Year of the Ox. I admit, I read my Chinese Horoscope (Dragon) as well as the other horoscope (Aries). I really don't take it seriously but I wont lose anything if I keep it in mind. Its a guide or a warning if you want to see it that way but not a map of what my life will really be like in this new year. I am still waiting for a more comprehensive reading for people born in the Year of the Dragon. However, there is already a snippet in the BusinessMirror about it.

"Meanwhile, those born under the Year of the Dragon are considered both lucky and unlucky this year. “While it has lucky stars, it is in conflict with the Ox, thus, this luck is canceled."

Looks like there is going to be a power struggle looming between the Dragon and the Ox. I wonder how this can be contradicted. My friend Apryll told me that her feng-shui friend said that the color red isn't advised for this year for obvious reasons - it will anger the Ox. But I told her that I guess its my shield against the Ox or well my weapon to piss it even more. LOL I guess I will just wear more earth colors this year but accent it with either a pair of red shoes or a red bag.
