Your Chinese New Year Horoscope: From Monkey to Rooster

The Fire is Yin

Today is the Chinese New Year, and the  animal changes from Monkey to Rooster. The fire element continues, but now the fire is yin (less aggressive), thank heavens! Take your passions inward and think them through before expressing them.

Forethought and Balance Before Action

Last year, the most important thing everyone learned was to think before taking passionate (fiery) action. This is still the mantra for your 2017 Rooster year too.

Your Most Challenging Year

The Rooster’s inclination to love the limelight and speak powerfully and loudly must be balanced with contemplation. It’s your most challenging year of the last 12. However, challenges offer opportunities. The lessons you’ve learned, along with your higher wisdom, can make you the successful Rooster of Solitude.

Keep It Real … or Else

A thoughtful, well-planned approach this coming year works for every sign. The yin fire energy is gently asking for your inner warmth and light to imbue all of your work, whatever animal you are. Therefore, you need to keep it real or expect a meltdown. This year’s element doesn’t work well with metal. Hard work, being genuine, loyalty, and courage are certainly rewarded. Here is your Chinese New Year Horoscope!

Rat

You’ve had a year of challenges. However, you can have a very successful year if you follow what you’ve learned. Use your natural intelligence and continue to take care with your words and actions. As a result, you’ll be very pleased with your progress.

Ox

Springtime brings the results of your long-term efforts. You’ll see more progress in the fall and at the end of the year. However, you should remain low-key about all that you’ve acquired to avoid jealousy. In particular, be generous in your attitude toward others to assure loyalty.

Tiger

Like the Rooster, you love being in front of a crowd. However, if you aren’t in that position, it’s certainly a good time to work toward that. But, you need to keep in mind the tenets of this year and always consider those people who help you shine. Be sure to share your successes with them.

Rabbit

This is a quiet year for Rabbits, if you’re lucky. However, you should stay close to your real friends and family. Enjoy them and quietly listen to their advice. If you haven’t found your life partner or dream job, don’t worry. It’s all unfolding this year so share your intuition with others.

Dragon

This is a year when Dragons can shine if they listen to those who love them. Consider their suggestions seriously and certainly thank them with humility and appreciation. This is a year when the sword can cut both ways, so be sure to always be inclusive.

Snake

You are ready to use your instincts to find love and success. But remember this year’s Fire Rooster considerations. Listen carefully, love generously and also trust those who support you. Love is there, without a doubt, and it certainly unfolds into greater love if you allow it.

Horse

You’ll enjoy this year and all its excitement … until you’re ready for a break. Romance is also fun, but can become unhinged easily. Therefore, the main thing to remember is to keep your footing and believe in yourself and your deepest commitments.

Sheep

Hunker down for a highly changeable year with your loved ones. You certainly don’t mind changes, but you’re also very sensitive to everyone around you. If they behave emotionally, be sure to protect your needs while supporting them.

Monkey

You survived your Monkey year! It was certainly challenging, yet also very stimulating. You kept everyone guessing, and it was often fun. However, now is the time to settle down a bit. That’s because there are major opportunities/challenges in February and July, and you’ll want to take advantage of them.

Rooster

This is your fire Rooster year. While ancient views made such a year sound difficult, today it is seen as offering great breakthroughs if you’re ready. You’re great at preparation, so use that to your advantage. Speak strongly. However, be sure to do it at the right time.

Dog

This year offers a lot of gains, but in unusual ways. Your attractive qualities make people who are confused (even lost) go to you. While these people aren’t easy, opportunities abound if you address them with loving compassion.

Pig
This year is a time to take that life and those finances you’ve recently built to the next level. February and July/August will be full of surprises. However, if you’re prepared you’ll have a new lifestyle over the next few years. There’s certainly plenty of time to enjoy yourself.
