Year of the Ox

Rat: A great year to enjoy family; however, be prepared to take on more responsibilities for less gain than you're used to achieving.

Ox: A good year to marry or form business partnerships, and expect children to be added to your family. Annoying delays won't ruin things, so relax.

Tiger: If you watch your temper and resist roaring over delays and misunderstandings, things will work out very well for you before the year ends.

Rabbit: The retiring nature of this Ox year will reduce the stress you'd normally experience while under Ox's influence. Plans take longer, though.

Dragon: You won't set the world on fire this year, but you seem to exist in a magical bubble, protected from others' troubles and anxieties.

Snake: Things may not run as smoothly as you like, but if you don't get distracted by delays and complications, there's a big opportunity awaiting you.

Horse: Consolidate rather than expand this year and you will be given a great deal more power. Use care with children and subordinates.

Sheep (Ram, Goat): Lay low and keep it simple this year, as challenges will be flying at you from all directions. Also budget closely and carefully.

Monkey: Rather than struggling over slowdowns at work, take the time to enjoy family and friends. Take extra care of your health.

Rooster: This is your year to recover lost ground and depleted resources! There's plenty of support on hand. Careful of sharp objects.

Dog: You may be plagued with misunderstandings and uncertainties despite good intentions. Revel in simple pleasures and avoid confrontation.

Pig (Boar): Great prospects and unerring hunches will pay off this year. There may be romantic or family complications, but small ones.
