The Year of the Rat

It’s officially the Year of the Rat. The first sign in the Chinese zodiac, the rat represents optimism, energy, creativity, adaptability, and attention to fine detail.

Those born under this sign have these attributes. And it just so happens that something new is coming from Polestar. Something that, like the sign it’s born under, will embody a better way of doing things. Call it a new year’s revolution.

Happy Year of the Rat.

They speak to the importance of having an open mind, embracing new customs, and adapting to one’s surroundings. There are equivalents in all languages. In English, one is told that “when in Rome, do as the Romans do”. It counts for the Italian capital, just as it counts for northern Finland. Which is exactly where we headed this winter.
