2012 golden dragon babies!

JennyJen · Dec 4th, 2011, 21:55 PM

My girlfriend told me that someone told her 2012 is the luckiest/best year to have a baby as it's the Golden Dragon year, apparently only happens once every 60 years...

Anyone else heard anything about this? I think it's pretty cool!

I'm trying to google "golden dragon" but can't find anything... however I guess 2012 is the year of the water dragon and found this really cool interesting article: http://lunarnewyearhouston.com/the-water-dragon-year/

I thought golden dragon was in 2000....but Dragon is coming up in 2012 and is one of the best Chinese zodiac signs. When we told DH's grandpa (DH is Chinese and Grandpa is traditional) he was really happy and said it was lucky to have a baby born in the year of the dragon.

We went for Chinese Food last night (to celebrate Chinese New Year) to my fav spot, which I have been going to since I was a baby, and he told us all about the year of the dragon. This is the year of the golden dragon. It only happens every 60 years, which is every 5 cycles of the Chinese calander. It also happens to be the 6,000th golden dragon year! He said that when the golden dragon years happen the Chinese population will jump 15%-18% from everyone trying to have lucky babies. So hubby and I are SUPER excited to hear such amazing news. We were already looking forward to our lil dragon baby but now its even more awesome. Def feel like this is fate. Can't wait to meet our lil one!

I posted about this sunday, I am half Chinese and my mum was thrilled that we will be having a dragon baby!!

The Dragon personality The Dragon is a creature of myth and legend. A symbol of good fortune and sign of intense power, the Oriental Dragon is regarded as a divine beast - the reverse of the malicious monster that Westerners felt necessary to find and slay. In Eastern philosophy, the Dragon is said to be a deliverer of good fortune and a master of authority. Therefore, those people born in Dragon years are to be honored and respected.

THE SIGN OF THE DRAGON

The key to the Dragon personality is that Dragons are the free spirits of the Zodiac. Conformation is a Dragon's curse. Rules and regulations are made for other people. Restrictions blow out the creative spark that is ready to flame into life. Dragons must be free and uninhibited. The Dragon is a beautiful creature, colorful and flamboyant. An extroverted bundle of energy, gifted and utterly irrepressible, everything Dragons do is on a grand scale - big ideas, ornate gestures, extreme ambitions. However, this behavior is natural and isn't meant for show. Because they are confident, fearless in the face of challenge, they are almost inevitably successful. Dragons usually make it to the top. However, Dragon people be aware of their natures. Too much enthusiasm can leave them tired and unfulfilled. Even though they are willing to aid when necessary, their pride can often impede them from accepting the same kind of help from others. Dragons' generous personalities give them the ability to attract friends, but they can be rather solitary people at heart. A Dragon's self-sufficiency can mean that he or she has no need for close bonds with other people.

I looked it up too and it said 2012 is the year of the water or black dragon and 2000 was the year of the golden dragon...my son if he would have been born a month later would have been a dragon baby...
