The year of the water rabbit ends February 9th; so this is pretty much your last chance to have your child blessed with inner peace and contentment through the auspices of Water Rabbit. Better make like said rabbits. 😉
And yes, most Asian cultures track one’s zodiac sign from conception, not birth. Hence, you can still have a Rabbit child if you get busy now.

Today is the Asian Lunar New Year and the beginning of the Year Of The Rabbit.
So… Relax, Think Happy Thoughts, Get Lucky, And Make Some Babies?
Yes, in China and across most of Asia, this now the Year Of The Rabbit, specifically the Water Rabbit. It is considered the luckiest zodiac year, characterized by peaceful and patient energy, good luck, creativity, and fertility.
But, in Vietnam, It’s The Year Of The Cat
As I wrote though, it’s the Year Of The Rabbit across most of Asia. In Vietnam – possibly because of odd crossovers between the pronunciation of rabbit in Mandarin and the written form in Kmer; possibly because the Vietnamese have a longstanding and not unexpected bias against the Chinese – this is the start of the Year Of The Cat.
So, so as to both limit Chinese cultural tyranny and to make some inroads against my own personal anti-Vietnamese bias, here’s some fine cats as well. After all, 50 years is a bit long to hang on to that level of hate. 😉

This is the last day of the annual celebration of the Chinese Lunar New Year. So, go grab some luck! Embrace the spirit of the Water Tiger. Be passionate; be daring; be fearless.
Grab, Not Just Luck, But Lasting Prosperity As Well
Remember that Confucianism is still the primary underpinning of Chinese culture and that Confucianism is centered upon a man’s family and heirs through the generations. As such, prosperity and fortune are measured less by a man’s immediate wealth than by the lasting strength of his family. So, don’t just grab some luck; grab it and prosperity and hang on to that tiger’s tail. 😉

This Chinese Lunar New Year marks the beginning of the Year of the Tiger, specifically the Water Tiger, and that means we should passionately and with great stubbornness grab it by the tail and hang on. 😆
Want To Get Lucky In 2022? Fortune Favors The Bold
While it does seem there are a plethora of reasons to be so, don’t be Sinophobic. Indeed, avoid Sinophobia like you’ve tried to avoid COVID-19. Hate the evil yellow monkeys in Beijing, not the Chinese women in all their splendor.
After all, there’s a lot of luck in those little red and gold wrappings. You’ve just got to be bold and open them up!
