Chinese Lunar Horoscope (Year of the Earth Rat)
2008 is a great year to get married. If you have already chosen a wedding date and it doesn’t appear on the list below, don’t fret! The ‘good’ dates indicated below are meant as general guide only. Although these dates are based on tung shu (Chinese Almanac) and appeared in the list from at least three different sources, we do not claim that we have the final say on the matter.
We advise soon-to-weds who value feng shui to consult with a professional and trusted feng shui master by giving each of their birthdates and exact birth time (sometimes even birth information of the parents from both sides) for a more accurate analysis.
As weddings here in the country are usually held during weekends, we highlighted the weekend dates so they will be easier to spot.
