Metal Ox 辛丑 Month
January 5 17:46-February 4 04:58

Here are the Animal Fortunes for the month of the Metal Ox. 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 just ask! 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

丑 Ox
Years: 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021
Month: January roughly.
Last call – for now. Put everything in its right place, including you. Set up for the long term. If that means making some last-minute route changes, so be it. You’re anything but impulsive.
Hint: It won’t be as easy to shift things again until November.

寅 Tiger
Years: 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022
Month: February roughly.
In the process of cleaning up there’s often a point where you’ve made a bigger mess than what you started with. Take the time to not do that.
Hint: No need for ruthlessness now.

卯 Rabbit
Years: 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
Month: March roughly.
If you were going to get a tattoo to commemorate something beautiful that happened in 2021, this would be the month to do it. Better that than the potential bitterness hanging on.
Hint: There are many uses for needles.

辰 Dragon
Years: 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024
Month: April roughly.
Ghosted or just still on the (y)inside? If you’ve been feeling left in the corner to make your great strides alone, you might be right. But it’s likely you that sent yourself there.
P.S. Don’t think we haven’t noticed.
Hint: Look up from your work and appreciate the person who is there when you do.

巳 Snake
Years: 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025
Month: May roughly.
Good time to seek medical treatment. If you need a diagnosis, get one. No DIY. Focus on arrangements that require the cooperation and coordination of others.
Hint: The position of the Snake pillar in your natal chart will reveal the nuance of their relationship to you.

午 Horse
Years: 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026
Month: June roughly.
Nothing a Horse hates more than being slow or slowed down, but don’t let the month convince you that you’re still in that kind of timing, because you’re not. Take on opportunities.
Hint: Slog through with good cheer, knowing that your Fire is going to be well fueled soon.

未 Sheep
Years: 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027
Month: July roughly.
The tail of the Ox – a further questioning of your values. This is a good time to go over your favorite fantasy scenarios in your head and ask yourself: Where did my aesthetics come from?
Hint: Don’t believe everything you see. Reality is filled with beautiful experiences.

申 Monkey
Years: 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028
Month: August roughly.
Just in case you’re feeling anxious… If you feel you need help, you deserve help. Therapy helps, but so would talking more to people who love you. Be heard.
Hint: You don’t have to wait until you’re wrecked. Tap your emotional intelligence.

酉 Rooster
Years: 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017, 2029
Month: September roughly.
Roosters have been riding that good luck and guess what? This month will resurface the successes you had in 2021 – glamorous or not. Sustain attention to detail.
Hint: Finish and present.

戌 Dog
Years: 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030
Month: October roughly.
Get in the habit of staying hydrated. Listen to your breath. Receive counsel and advice from wise women, not because you don’t have the same common sense, but because you are so easily tempted to ignore it.
Hint: Let yourself know what you know. It matters.

亥 Pig
Years: 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1994, 2007, 2018, 2030
Month: November roughly.
Just when you thought you were about to experience a growth spurt…you still are. Get clear on facts, plans and resources now so you are fully prepared. Temper your authority.
Hint: Earth might slow you down, but nothing can stop you now. Keep acting like it’s no big deal because it isn’t!

子 Rat
Years: 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020
Month: December roughly.
Could be a bit muddled, so full stop for now. Give yourself rest and stillness. If you have other priorities, try to shuffle them to put replenishment first. This is not your strongest month to start something new.
Hint: Avoid working yourself into exhaustion.
