MONKEY,ROOSTER, DOG & PIG


MONKEYGeneral

This is going to be a wonderful year for you. As you are already in a better position compared to others, this will be a good time to make your dreams come true. Not only will your plans materialize, but you will also enjoy greater popularity. People will give you the support that you need and even strangers will be friendly towards you. Although in general you will be in a good position for great advancements, you will need to be aware of your own behavior and how others might react to you. You should always remain humble and modest. It will be best not to participate in gossip corners and not to speak poorly about others. Should you not have anything good to say, it will be better not to say anything. Where you might have upset or offended others, they will not be able to get back at you directly. But it will be returned to you many folds later when your popularity subsides. It will be better not to make any enemies now. Another possible danger that you will face this year is the sudden crises that will arise. Hence, it will be critical for you to be prepared and have contingency plans should things take a sudden turn for the worse. Not only will this give you greater assurance of success, others will also be deeply impressed with your foresight. You might fall in love this year if you are single. This will also be a good time to strengthen your relationship if you are already in one. As your popularity will be on the rise, avoid entangling yourself in a messy situation. Try to stay focused on your relationship and not create misunderstandings. Be careful of health issues that might strike without warning. You should roll up your sleeves and get ready to reap the best out of this year.

Career

Your career is filled with many golden opportunities and you will be able to get support from the relevant people easily. This will be a great time for you to shine through with excellent performances. You should try to take this opportunity to implement major plans that you have been shelving. You will do exceptionally well if you are in project teams, sales or giving presentations. Apart from your extraordinary performances, your strong popularity will earn you more credit than you think and will be able to push your career to great heights. Many people will enjoy working on the same team or project with you and they will even volunteer to get matters done for you. Though everything will seem to be moving in your favor, it will be important to have contingency plans because challenges will tend to arise in the most unexpected ways. This might ruin you or cause setbacks to your plans. Apart from this, you will need to continuously remind yourself not to get carried away while you are enjoying the recognition and support, because you might accidentally offend or upset others without knowing. Though these people whom you have offended or are upset with you might not confront you directly, they might do or say things behind your back at a more vulnerable time. Hence, it will be best to stay humble and modest while you reap the fruits of your success as this will enable you to have prolonged success.

If you are in business, your business will do well. This will also be a good time to engage in activities to promote greater publicity for your business in order to get more exposure. You will find that people will tend to enjoy doing business with you and your business will take off. While you will do very well in business, it will be important for you to stay cautious and keep an eye on details. The challenges that will appear this year will be quick and sudden. Being able to have good contingency plans will help with business continuity and will also leave a very good impression of your business to others and this will further improve the reputation of your company. While you will be doing very well, you should not be abrupt to others, no matter who they might be or how busy you might be. In the business world, there is no fixed definition as to who your clients will be and who your vendors will be. When you shut the door to others, you will be at the same time closing doors for yourself. Hence, always stay humble and modest. You will also need to be careful of what you comment upon.

Wealth

Your wealth luck will be good. There will be indications that you will have salary increments. If you are in sales or earn via commissions, you will do well too. This will be a good year for you to make double, triple or multiple times your average wages. Keep what you will reap for a rainy day should you be able to optimize your good fortune. Though your wealth luck in general will be good, you will not want to take unnecessary risks or make impulsive decisions about your finances. It will also be best not to place all your eggs into one basket. This will be because there will tend to be many sudden crises that might crop out from nowhere and this might wipe out your earnings within a short time frame or might even put you into debt. You should always do your homework and take only calculated risks and should not be overly reliant on your intuition.

Relationship

For singles, there will be a high possibility for you to fall in love this year. It will be good if you continue to participate in social activities so that you will know more people and will have more choices as to whom you will like to develop relationships with. If you are attached or married, this will be a good time for you to further strengthen your relationship. You will be able to enjoy good times together and there will be chemistry between each other. Even if you have been in a relationship for quite a while, this will be the time to rejuvenate your relationship. Your busy schedule might cause some tension or become a hindrance to your relationship. It will be important for you to manage your time well so that you can establish your career while enjoying your relationship. Your strong popularity might attract unwanted attention from third parties. If you are already in a relationship, it will be wise to stay away from these potential problems of risking your relationship for something that will be temporary and not lasting.

Health

You will also be prone to illnesses that might strike unexpectedly such as heart attacks or strokes. It will be important for you to take care of your emotions as laughing too hard or being too angry might cause such health problems. The challenges that occur will be rather harsh and sudden and will be a shock to you. Hence, it will be important for you to bear this in mind and try not to engage in activities that will put your health at risk. It will help if you try to calm yourself down and remind yourself that your health is important. As you are quite popular this year, it will be very common for people to ask you out to catch up and have a drink. If you drink, you should have someone drive you or get onto public transport. Avoid trying to drive home yourself as you will also be prone to accidents this year. Be cautious about traffic rules and stay focused on what you are doing and be especially careful of your safety by not attempting to cross roads while on the phone or trying to run across roads without looking at traffic.

People

There will not be too many people problems because your popularity will be strong. People will enjoy your company and will want to be part of the activities that you participate in. You will attract people and will leave a good impression easily and will also get the support from people without much effort. Due to these advantages, you should try to make the most by being diplomatic in the way you deal with matters as well as with people. You will be able to earn greater recognition and will be rewarded with greater popularity and success. On the contrary should you get carried away and start to treat others badly, although people might not confront you directly or gossip behind your back, they will start to distance themselves from you. When you are in a more vulnerable state or when your popularity starts to fade, they will not pass up the opportunity to bring you down. Also, you should avoid participating in gossip corners. It will be easier for you to make friends and have long lasting relationships this year. Thus, you should try to make the most of this year.

DOG
General

This is a good year for you in terms of your career prospects and receiving acknowledgment from your authority figures. However, as you might find yourself getting more responsibilities and getting busier at work, it will consume more of your time and affect your mood. You will also have lesser tolerance towards other colleagues and associates. Your wealth will be good and there will be a high probability for you to increase your sources of revenue. However, you will not be suited to make investments or getting involved in quick money schemes. Though you will be doing well in many aspects of your life, you will tend to feel lonely or emotionally detached. It might be that you become frustrated with people in general and there will be a high tendency that you will isolate yourself which might affect your relationship or potential relationship greatly. You might also become the victim of gossip and misunderstandings in that you might either be the person in which gossip revolves around or you might allow gossip to cloud your judgment. As long as your conscience is clear, you will not need to be bothered by gossip and you should also not believe everything you hear or jump to conclusions when you hear rumors. Your health will be average in general but you will need to be careful of health problems that are related to irregular meals and even of food poisoning. Apart from being careful of your own health, you will need to pay special attention to your elders' health and safety. Should they have health problems, try to get them treated immediately before it turns worse.

Career

You will continue to do well in your career this year as there will be many opportunities for you to show your strength and you will get recognition from your management. However, as your bosses realize that you will be able to handle greater responsibilities, more tasks will be assigned to you. With a heavier workload, you will need to work harder and in doing so might start to spread yourself too thin and this might greatly affect your health and mood. The challenges in your career this year will be to deal with gossip and people issues. As you will need to coordinate a lot of matters within a very tight time frame, you might need to be harsh on your colleagues or associates in order for tasks to be done. This might even offend some of your colleagues as others might not be able to understand the urgency and importance of getting things done. In some circumstances, you might also have to correct the mistakes your colleagues create and this might lead to a lot of frustration in you. Avoid participating in gossip at work. You should not get involved with matters that do not directly impact you as you might find yourself having to handle new assignments. You will need to find a balance between being diplomatic and being firm this year in order to get things done and yet not to offend people along the way. No matter how many challenges you might face, you will be protected by a lucky star and obstacles will be overcome or minimized. Be confident and optimistic. Although you might be a good team player, you will prefer to keep to yourself and have more personal space. Most likely, you will find that you can get things done faster by doing it yourself.

If you are in business, this will be a great year to look into further increasing your revenue and taking your business to new heights. You might also look into exploring new markets. However, you should avoid entering high-risk markets even though they might promise higher returns. You will be able to do well using your wisdom and intuition. There might also be more resource problems, quarrels or arguments in your company that might be due to misunderstandings or confusion about the direction of the company or the way the company is being run. You should not over-react but should simply and slowly chart out the direction the company is taking and to convince your business partners and colleagues. Keep your communication channels open and simple. The misunderstandings will slowly be resolved and you will get support from your colleagues and business partners.

Wealth

Your wealth luck is generally good. This will be a good time to look out for salary increments and for other sources of income. Though you will have good wealth luck, this will not imply that it will be a good time to be gambling. It will be easier for you to gain wealth through your primary source of income rather than through investments or gambling. You might also consider looking into other sources of making money. By evaluating different methods, you might be able to find new ways of making additional income. To increase your wealth, you should not depend solely on your salary, as it will most likely be fixed until management decides to increase it. At the same time, your expenses will continue to increase. Thus you should find new ways that are stable and yet will give you reasonably decent returns. Discovering new streams of income will enable you to increase your wealth over the longer term.

Relationship

For singles, the possibility of meeting your ideal partner will be quite slim. It might seem that you will be overloaded with responsibilities at work and also be quite worried about your elders’ health that you will not be in the mood or have the time to socialize. Apart from this, you might feel that you will need more personal space even though you might feel lonely sometimes. You should try to continue to do things that you enjoy and also give yourself some time to socialize. You will also be able to find peace within you. Avoid isolating yourself. If you are attached or married, there will be more tension and cold wars this year. The reasons for the disagreements or cold treatments will most likely be due to some gossip or problems created by ill-intentioned people. There will also be possibilities that your partner might be sent overseas or required to do tasks that will be result in spending less time with you. You should keep your communication channels with your partner clear. If there are any misunderstandings, try to resolve them soon and be patient and tolerant with your partner. Remind each other not to let gossip or other people's matters affect the relationship the both of you treasure. If your partner might have to spend less time with you, you should not let your imagination run wild and start arguments with your partner as your partner might be having an equally difficult time as you.

Health

Your health in general will be average. The potential health issues that you will face this year might be related to your diet. You might have irregular meals due to your tight schedule at work and there will also be the high possibility of suffering from food poisoning. You will need to be cautious of what you eat and the hygiene of the food- being prepared. If you need to travel, you might consider bringing Pro-biotics along to prevent diarrhea. You will also need to pay extra attention of your elders' health and safety. They will have a higher risk of falling ill or being accident-prone. Should there be signs of illnesses, try to let them undergo treatment before it becomes worse. Should it be possible, try not to let them go out alone or go out during rainy days.

People

There will be a lot of gossip and accusations thrown at you this year. Avoid participating in gossip corners. Although it might seem fun when talking about others, it might come back to haunt you and you will not want to be the victim of gossip. Furthermore when you hear gossip, you should not trust everything that you hear as it might leave an impression on you and you should not allow gossip to alter your judgment on matters or on people. You might find that it is frustrating to deal with people because they will not meet your expectations or even hinder your progress. Hence, you might show frustration towards others and this might offend or upset others who might in turn make nasty comments about you. Such gossip will spread around and this might tarnish your reputation. Isolating yourself from colleagues or friends will not help matters as it will be seen as an act of someone with a guilty conscience. You should not get annoyed and confront people. If you know that you have been doing the right thing and have also used a diplomatic approach, the gossip will die off eventually.

Action

PIG
General

Though the year of the Ox may not be a fantastic year for you, it will be better than the year of the Rat. There will be strong indications of movement. This will imply that you might be moving house, running around to get things done, travel frequently overseas or even relocating to other countries. No matter what might be the case, this is going to be a busy year for you. There might be some obstacles such as having direct conflicts with people and having to find yourself fending on your own. The good news will be that there will not be many people who will deliberately try to hinder you from your goals. Due to your tight schedule, you might neglect your health and will tend to fall ill easily. There will also be indications of being attacked by animals. You will also need to pay attention to your elders' health and safety. Apart from neglecting your health, you might also not put in enough time to spend with your friends and family. Due to this, the bond between your friends and family might weaken and this might cause unhappiness and dissatisfaction of your behavior from your friends and family. If you are in a relationship, this will also cause tension. Your wealth luck is below average. Your expenses are high but your sources of income will not seem to increase correspondingly. You should try to maintain a low profile this year and be conservative in your approach. Pace yourself in terms of what need to be done and take breaks in between. This will enable you to prolong your stamina and not get burnt out.

Career

On the career front, there will be many movements. There will be various possibilities in respect of your animal sign. One is that you will be busier than usual and the tasks you need to handle will continue piling up. The second possibility will be that you might need to travel around to get things done. You might be traveling within the country or even traveling overseas and the amount of time that you will spend on the road seems to be extensive. The third possibility is that you might be sent for overseas assignments. As you will be traveling very often, you will need to take good care of your health, diet and have adequate rest to maintain a strong immune system in order to stay healthy. You might find that matters at work seem to be more haphazard than usual. The directions from the management seem to keep changing that might force you to close some projects that are done halfway. The busier you will be at work or the more traveling you need to do will signify the better your career prospects will be. People at work might be more aggressive and might even be more unreasonable towards you. There will be strong indications of direct conflicts or even others showing their temper. You will not have adequate support from your authority figures. You should take it easy and not reciprocate. You will have a lot to do this year and you should just focus on what you need to accomplish. You will not want to spend a lot of energy on unnecessary political struggles that might prove to be draining and yet unfruitful. You should work on other areas such as exercising or doing something that you will enjoy in order to channel your stress or anger in a healthy manner. If your job requires you to handle animals, please pay extra attention as there will be a high probability of being attacked by them. No matter how confident or well-trained you are with them, you should not let your guard down.

If you will be doing business, you might find that you will need to attend to many things. Apart from that, you might need to travel extensively around visiting clients or having meetings. Though you will be busy, the results might not reflect the efforts that you will put in. There will be many obstacles and you might be rejected for deals or people might be quite harsh to you. There will also be direct conflicts with business partners, colleagues or even clients. You should not react impulsively. You might not want to listen to everything you might hear or to reject all opinions other people provide you with. You should take some time to reflect on what might be the possible reasons for clients or potential clients declining doing business with you. You might want to take this opportunity to work on fine-tuning business processes and work on making improvements. This year will be a good year for you to learn new things. Though it might be painful, the great efforts that you will put in this year will return handsome benefits to you in the near future.

Wealth

Your wealth luck will be below average. This will mainly be because of certain high expenses you will be incurring this year. If you are traveling overseas, you might be tempted to buy interesting items that you might chance upon. You will also spend more on transport costs compared to other years and you might buy a new house this year which will be a huge expense. Should you be moving to a new home, you might also incur costs in getting your new house furnished. The other area of expenses might come from medical fees for yourself and the elderly. In addition to large expenses, the probability of obtaining new sources of income is rather low. While your income will not increase, your expenses will continue to rise and it will pose a challenge for you to save. You should not make investments or pursue gambling and also avoid lending people money or being a guarantor. You will need to keep a safety buffer in terms of your finances this year in case of an emergency.

Relationship

For singles, the possibility of falling in love this year will be slim. You will always be very busy and you will not have time for socializing. You might not give yourself enough time to get to know others. Others might also find it difficult to communicate with you as you might always be on the road or be preoccupied with other matters. After several attempts, the interested party might give up and decide to leave you alone. For those who are attached or married, there will be more tension this year. As you will have too many things to get done, you might be abrupt with your partner and your partner might not understand and quarrels might arise. If you will always be traveling overseas, your partner might feel insecure and tend to let their imagination run wild. Their questions and suspicions might lead to quarrels. Hence, you should be patient with your partner and understand that it is their love that leads to their insecurity due to your absence. Should you buy a new house this year, there might be quarrels over how the house should be decorated or renovated. Try to respect each other and not allow trivial matters to end up in heated arguments.

Health

You will also be prone to falling ill. Your immune system will be rather weak due to inadequate rest, irregular meals and dehydration. In the midst of your tight schedule, it will also be important to take good care of your health. Should you fall ill, it will disrupt your plans and might cause further inconvenience to yourself. Good health will always be the basis of your success. Another phenomenon that might shows up in the stars is you will be prone to being attacked by animals. Although the possibility of this happening might be small if you do not keep pets and hardly come into contact with any animals, it will still be better to be careful than to be sorry later because you might possibly come across some stray animals. For those of you who have pets or might be required to handle animals, it will be important to take precautions. Apart from taking care of your own health and safety, you will also need to be careful of your elders' health and safety.

People

The people problems will be less severe than usual. Should people not agree with you, they will be more likely to express it directly to you than to talk behind your back. Hence, there will be more direct conflicts than usual. As you will always be on the move and be busy with your own work, the contact that you will have with such people will be quite brief. This will reduce the time for gossip to grow, for conflicts to happen and even for relationships to be built. This might also mean that you will be hardly able to build strong relationships from all the brief encounters and you might find that you have difficulty to get support from others this year as well. On many occasions, people might prefer to leave you alone to get your things done. It will also be very likely that you will be so engrossed on matters at hand that you will not even notice when others are trying to play politics with you. It will be a blessing in disguise as you will be able to simply overlook them and their politics will turn out to have minimal impact on you.

Action

Carry a Jade Pixiu with you. Place a metal horse in your Gui Ren position. Place a leopard stone near you.
