The Fortunes

申 Monkey
Years: 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028
Month: August roughly.
Deep breath. You can safely set up for the rest of the year now. Assess resources. Make plans. Be careful of getting distracted by conflict. That’s going nowhere. Create stability where you can.
Hint: Above all, listen.

酉 Rooster
Years: 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017, 2029
Month: September roughly.
This gift from heaven feels heavy but luckily you’ve got strong underpinnings for most of the month. Some of the burden is meant to be delegated or discarded. It’s okay to go with that.
Hint: Making things perfect isn’t going to change how you feel. It’s a distraction from your hurt.

戌 Dog
Years: 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030
Month: October roughly.
This month, Dogs are motivated by loyalty, traditions and DNA. Perhaps you’re not called to be a peacemaker as much as a defender. Important distinction. Some harsh measures may be called for.
Hint: Be clear about goals.

亥 Pig
Years: 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1994, 2007, 2018, 2030
Month: November roughly.
You’ll want to know that should there be a loss this month, it’s pretty likely that it will be balanced out in some other way. Emotions may distract you from this fact. You may not realize that happened until much later.
Hint: People think strong emotions make you weak. What if their perception is your advantage?

子 Rat
Years: 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020
Month: December roughly.
This month should be filled with good ideas, so consider how you might want to change your messaging. Ask trusted colleagues & friends how you can freshen up or increase relevance. Tend to appearance in preparation for being seen.
Hint: Check in with friends, associates, acquaintances.

丑 Ox
Years: 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021
Month: January roughly.
You’re luckier than you think. Break out of your routine. Start something new that you can do every day. Cultivate some new obsession to take the place of an unhealthy one. Seek words and language.
Hint: Whatever it is, it doesn’t need to take up a lot of your time.

寅 Tiger
Years: 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022
Month: February roughly.
This month everything depends on how you’ve navigated the year so far. How are your relationships going? You may need support in some context, possibly involving family. Know that if you are going to travel this month.
Hint: You can’t cover all the bases all of the time. Ask for help in advance just in case.

卯 Rabbit
Years: 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
Month: March roughly.
Another month, another person who has a secret crush on you. There’s an element of danger here that attracts or arouses curiosity. Maybe you already know that. If you’re taking a risk, be calculating.
Hint: Relationships were meant to shape us, not to bend us out of shape.

辰 Dragon
Years: 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024
Month: April roughly.
Could be the best month of the year for the Dragon. Playmates are available if you can bring yourself to play. Time to put on the finishing touches and present your work. Talk it up.
Hint: To augment your success, put a special focus on networking. Acknowledge mentors/supporters.

巳 Snake
Years: 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025
Month: May roughly.
Could be a breakup or job change for some Snakes. It might feel like betrayal but if you saw it coming, is it? For safety, turn attention to your own unsolved mysteries. Everyone else’s can wait.
Hint: Take care with driving and travel especially if your emotions are on high.

午 Horse
Years: 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026
Month: June roughly.
Stay open to the all of the possibilities that are available. At this point in the year, there’s still plenty of success to be had for you if you know how to spend your energy wisely. Focus on short races.
Hint: You’ll get more done if you also rest. That means not working all the time.

未 Sheep
Years: 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027
Month: July roughly.
In a way it doesn’t make sense, this ramping up you are still doing this month. Some might say it goes against logic. But in the context of 2023, it makes total sense.
Hint: Plan. Contact trusted people you want to work with next year. Who can help with your project?
