Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, January 20) — The “Year of the Romantic Water Rabbit” signifies a lot of hope for everyone, especially in finding and strengthening relationships this 2023, a Feng Shui expert said on Friday.
According to Feng Shui expert Patrick Lim Fernandez, the Rabbit year is the peak of the spring season, a special period that gives off hope and fuels people’s romance.
“It’s full of hope, rebirth, reintegration into society. A lot of hope for all of us,” he told CNN Philippines’ The Source.
As a peach blossom star, Fernandez said it has long been considered a symbol of “undying love,” either for a partner or family.
The Feng Shui expert said this is a good year for singles to open their hearts, for those in a relationship to rekindle the fire, and for everyone to deepen their ties with friends, families, and colleagues.
“It’s looking very hopeful from the relationship perspective. When you’re able to rekindle the life energy in a relationship, you’ll see that it blooms and grows like a peach blossom.
