Monkey

One monkey meeting another brings unpredictable situations, surprising developments, and opportunities. Keep calm, stay positive and set a steady pace.

 
Career: Beware calamities, big losses and lawsuits. Plan carefully when it comes to your finances and learn to be thrifty.

Family & Love: Singles have a good chance of meeting that someone special — with quickly blossoming results. Married couples should refrain from using hurtful words but should embrace each other in these troubled times instead.

#Tip for the Year:
Good health is assured but take care to avoid limb injuries, sprained ankles and illnesses associated with the liver or gall bladder.

Rat

Those born in the Year of the Rat are careful — but there’s a breakthrough waiting for you, if you are willing to be bold!

 
Career: There is no room for distractions or procrastination. Be alert and move at a faster pace. If looking for a new job or career advancement, this is a good year to upgrade your education or skill set.

Family & Love: You’ll feel a lot more insecure and will require more attention this year, but this is also a good year for singles to explore new relationships.

#Tip for the Year:
Make a plan to achieve new goals and you’ll be able to clear obstacles in all areas of your life!


Ox

After a rough ride in the Year of the Goat, the Ox can look forward to a turnaround with many auspicious stars surrounding the sign.

Career: It’s time to break away from stubborn old habits and bulldoze your way to success. Volatility can be expected but benefactors and supporters will provide opportunities.

Family & Love: The time is ripe for the Ox to explore and embark on new adventures in romance. This is also a good year for family bonding.

#Tip for the Year:
This will be a good year to detox and overhaul your health. Avoid speculative finance or risky investments.


Tiger

The bold and confident Tiger can expect a challenge from the Fire Monkey — so stay calm and keep a low profile.

Career: You might be daring and independent but you will need to learn to work as a team and network in order to cross over difficulties this year. Be patient and wait for the right time to spring in order to achieve your objectives.

Family & Love: Expect misunderstandings and disagreements so keep a cool head. Do not dwell on past hurts or the problem might snowball.

Tip for the Year:
Exercise restraint when it comes to any financial investments. Refrain from gambling and drive safe!


Rabbit

The stars will shine upon the quiet and prudent Rabbit this year — but stay humble and alert to avoid possibly disastrous mistakes and/or decisions.

Career: This is a good year to build your reputation and wealth. Feel free to explore and step out on new career paths and/or money making ventures.

Family & Love: For married couples, this is the perfect year to renew your vows and improve bonds between the two of you. Singles will also have a good year — if they take the initiative.

#Tip for the Year:
A relapse of an old gastric, liver or nervous system illness can be expected so take the time to detox and control your drinking habits!


Dragon

The confident Dragon combines well with Monkey but it still pays to be on the lookout for potential legal problems, accidents, injuries and conflicts.

Career: Things are going well for you but you will need to plan carefully and be consistent
in order to keep the status quo. Avoid hasty decisions which might trigger big losses. Those in business can expect delayed payments and bad debts.

Family & Love: A good year for singles if they take the initiative. Those married or attached might find their relationships tested, however, by bad gossip and misunderstandings.

#Tip for the Year:
Keep a cool head and watch your words when angry. Humility and optimism are key to a peaceful year.


Snake

Good fortune and a smooth path awaits the hardworking and independent Snake - but disputes and bad gossip might also lurk.

Career: The more you sow, the more you will reap! Manage your resources carefully and
you can expect good financial payoffs. You can also expect progress at work in the form of a promotion or pay raise!
 
 
Family & Love: Love is in the air for singles who take the initiative but beware of unnecessary complications or entanglements. Those already married, watch out for extramarital relationships.

#Tip for the Year:
Remember to stay caring and yielding in order to maintain peace with the people around you.
 

Horse

The good equals the bad this year so simply keep your head down, work hard and persevere.

Career: Look forward to career advancement and increased responsibility — but do not expect any monetary gain in turn. Instead, use these as opportunities to showcase your skill, talent and foresight.

Family & Love: Remember that communication is key. Show more concern and affection to your loved ones and avoid harsh, spiteful words which you might regret later.

#Tip for the Year:
Obstacles and hurdles might lie in your path so exercise caution in galloping ahead!


Goat

Overwhelmingly good stars shine bright for the kind yet stubborn Goat — but take care to avoid stress or overwork.

Career: Your well-mannered, shy and patient personality will win favour from your superiors but plan ahead and be persistent in order to achieve success. Support from benefactors will improve opportunities for career progression and further studies.

Family & Love: Disputes and conflicts might affect relationships and marriages so don’t let your emotions run away with you. Thinking about getting married? Then, the time is now.

#Tip for the Year:
Stay away from gambling — good luck comes from hard work!

Rooster

Lucky stars surround you. So take full advantage and use this year to take centre stage, make your reputation, and win the support of your superiors and peers!

 
Career: There is no better time to explore and embark on new ventures. Your workload and responsibilities will increase, but planning ahead and being well-organised will help you achieve your objectives.
 
Family & Love: A booming social calendar will not only expand your networking opportunities but might also welcome unhealthy romances into your life. Take care.

#Tip for the Year:
Poor respiratory health might plague you, so cut the fried and heaty foodstuff.

 


Dog

Surrounded by many unlucky stars, the loyal and anxious Dog might become agitated and end up in hot water. Just remember to keep calm and carry on.


Career: Career advancement prospects might stall and you might find the pressure building up at work as bosses demand more. Stay calm and diligent, and use the time to focus on upgrading your skills. Monetary setbacks can be expected, so be thrifty.
 
Family & Love: Those out looking for love shouldn’t expect much. Instead, focus on the loved ones already in your life.

#Tip for the Year:
Refrain from risky investments and gambling. Avoid dangerous sports and drive with care.

 

Pig

Monkey brings a mixed year to the good honest Pig. Be open to dialogue to avoid misunderstandings, be more tolerant, and remain faithful to your beloved. 

Career: Prepare to leave your comfort zone as the pressure heats up! But career prospects are bright and superiors will be pleased with your performance. Select carefully from your opportunities and you'll be able to reap high returns. 
 
Family & Love: A lack of good stars and a busy work schedule will work against singles hoping to build long-term relationships.

This is the year for you to earn merit through charity or volunteer work!
