Rat (1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008)

The cosmic energy encourages you to make some changes. You might want to become more fit or just change your hairstyle. Taking care of your own needs first will put you in a better position to care for others. This may be especially true if you have multiple responsibilities, reports Horoscope.com.

Ox (1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009)

Indulge yourself and rest at home for at least part of the day. Your tendency to use free time for work, while commendable, can be carried too far. A lazy day doing nothing is a wise choice for personal well-being. Your body and spirit will benefit from more romantic attention.

Tiger (1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010)

You could be very lucky in love today! Social contacts will be positive and you benefit from networking in your community. This is a wonderful time for any new start that benefits you or your whole family. The energy can bring helpful people who may become more than friends.

Rabbit (1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011)

This is a day when you need things to support your self-confidence. A feeling you are not as good as others can make you feel isolated and alone. Perhaps you feel awkward in social situations. Reach out to friends for a reality check. People you like can draw you out.

Dragon (1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000)

This is a day to think about music, movies, photography and other creative outlets. Share your interests with others. It is a great time to make a play date. A little diversion will help you keep things in balance. Share your true feelings with those you know best.

Snake (1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013)

A brighter day brings unexpected opportunities. Saying the right thing helps smooth your path. Be as cooperative as possible with those in positions of authority. Your willingness to work hard is necessary for eventual success in any endeavour. Refuse to give up in any area you feel passionately about.

Horse (1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014)

The natural world is full of lessons. Gardening or simply spending time outside in a place of beauty can be a spiritual experience. Think about what you can do to be closer to the earth. Pets, flowers, and any growing thing can help you be more centred and awake.

Goat (1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003)

A person who lacks the courage to get real about what is creating pain and problems in a relationship can criticise one thing when upset about another matter entirely. What is real never gets voiced, and what is voiced is never real. To heal, real issues must be aired.

Monkey (1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004)

Your efforts to help can make this an enjoyable day for kids. Engage young minds in exciting learning projects. Women will be especially helpful. You may discover the solution to an emotional problem through the tactful assistance of a close friend. It's a great day to plan a special meal.

Rooster (1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005)

This is a very positive day to get out with friends and enjoy your favourite activities. Even a nice dinner and movie could be very relaxing. Do more things around the house if money is tight. If you've been meaning to clean out closets, this is the time to start.

Dog (1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006)

Think about specific goals you want to accomplish in the next twelve months. Expect your decisions to be questioned by others, but do not be discouraged. Gossip or revelations from the past can bring trouble or embarrassment. Keep things simple and reveal as little as possible. Stick with established routines.

Pig (1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007)

This is a high-energy day, so dive right in. Challenges will have a way of clarifying what you want. Be especially cautious when driving. This is a day when speed can cause accidents. Indulge yourself a little this evening with your favourite creature comforts at the end of a long day.
