Fire Rat 丙子 Month
December 7 19:20-January 7 06:06

Here are the Animal Fortunes for the month of the Fire Rat. To get the most out of the fortunes you’ll want to know all four of your pillars which are based on your birth date and time.

If you don’t know them get in touch. Each of the four animals of your BaZi correlates with an aspect of your life.

Year Pillar
Has to do with your physical body and what you do with it, ancestors, family traits. In terms of luck the year pillar is said to take the first “hit” of any event, good or bad.

Month Pillar
Relates to career, work environment, training, age mates and peers, siblings, exes and your modus operandi

Day Pillar
Yourself and true partner; your immediate environment and home life.

Hour Pillar
Your innermost self, your children, future, hopes and dreams.

The Fortunes

子 Rat
Years: 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020
Month: December roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
I’d say your year starts on the winter solstice. That’s December 22nd. A Rat’s time is the night, usually out of sight until no one else is around but now you’re ready to step forward. This month is your window of opportunity to set goals freely. Be clear about who is in charge of the outcome.
Hint: The habit of waiting for others to reveal intentions, positions or plans before you do may not be as useful as usual. Dive in now!

丑 Ox
Years: 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021
Month: January roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
You’ve got the power and the support. The question is what are you going to do with it? Balanced Oxen will see a fertile field of opportunity and get to plowing early. Unbalanced Oxen will block their own success, possibly through illness. Seek the flexibility of the Snake. That could help you both right now.
Hint: Excessive stillness brings illness.

寅 Tiger
Years: 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022
Month: February roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
Be careful of trying to over control as a way of avoiding the dark thoughts that come with this time of year. Since you don’t want to talk about it, talk about it. A neutral third party or a friend who will listen without advising would help even if you don’t think you need it.
Hint: You deserve it as much as anyone else.

卯 Rabbit
Years: 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
Month: March roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
Your expression toward parents, partner or other long term supporters may be coming off as rebellious and disrespectful. You may feel the same way about them. Acknowledgement and respect could change everything if that’s what you want. Use your charm to disarm. Don’t give up.
Hint: Open the conversation.

辰 Dragon
Years: 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024
Month: April roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
People are ready to work with you at a time when you feel like being noticed for your executive skills. Could be the beginning of a trend. Here’s your preview of the Rat year. Opportunities abound.
Hint: With ideas that bright I hope you’re keeping track of them.

巳 Snake
Years: 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025
Month: May roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
A boring but powerful associate comes to your assistance, finally. It’s starting to feel like there’s a buffer between you and disappointment. Are you still feeling adrift? Could be time to travel. Go as an observer if that’s your thing. Just go.
Hint: If this year has convinced you that you’re always going to feel rebuffed your perception could prove it wrong.

午 Horse
Years: 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026
Month: June roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
Come on baby light your fire. You like to be independent or at least you think you do. The spark is there. Consider how the Water element stimulates you; instead of fighting join. Emotional disclosure will sustain you whether you like it or not. Your high sensitivity is an asset, not a curse.
Hint: Do the self care to maintain it. Let someone trustworthy in.

未 Sheep
Years: 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027
Month: July roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
When friends are in need there’s no one who shows up as consistently as you. This month that could land you in someone else’s conflict. Charm might get you out of it though. Proceed with caution. Who is it you think mistreated you?
Hint: There may be conflict regarding your values. Stay true to yourself.

申 Monkey
Years: 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028
Month: August roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
For balanced Monkeys I expect insights and breakthroughs. Unbalanced Monkeys may struggle with feeling attacked or over emotional. For average Monkeys there will be all of these. Teaching could be healing because it lets you share your story in a constructive way. Writing works too. Step forward with confidence.
Hint: Talk, talk, talk. Use it as your tool rather than just downloading.

酉 Rooster
Years: 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017, 2029
Month: September roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
You have the ability to influence others through your charisma this month. Reach out for social opportunities if you want them. Examine your ideas about commitment in the context of relationship.
Hint: Someone you know will back you up if you need assistance. Ask.

戌 Dog
Years: 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030
Month: October roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
Respect for boundaries will go a long way toward people’s openness to you. And you could use some new friends so maybe give it a try. You don’t mean to intrude – you’re just doing your job. This is a good month to rewrite the job description.
Hint: Start with your definition of success.

亥 Pig
Years: 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1994, 2007, 2018, 2030
Month: November roughly. If you’re near the beginning or end ask.
Respite from recriminations. Take a deep breath or two. Flow freely. You’re extra charming this month so take advantage in setting up your holidays. Get out the 2020 calendar and start making plans. As Ishmael Butler says “Clear some space out so we can space out”.
Hint: If you want to speed things up make a plan. Make a list.
