The Tiger is slated to enjoy big breaks as you have victory luck helping you make all the right moves. Your strength improves and you can trust your instincts. Whilst it is important to watch your back, this is a month when you can go after what you want and really make the most out of the opportunities that come to you. Aim high and dare to do things differently. A good time to try new things and to put new ideas to work. Place the Dragon Tortoise Ru Yi on your desk and carry the Winning Vibrations Mirror to maximize chances of success. To improve transitions in your personal growth, and to attract new opportunities into your life, wear the Butterfly Ring with Om Ah Hum Mantra.

RABBIT – Remedy the Five Yellow
1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011

The visiting Five Yellow brings the kind of obstacles that can cause extensive misfortune. It is best to slow down the pace and avoid taking risks. Place the Mini Emerald Pagoda in the East of your home and carry the Emerald Pagoda Amulet to counter its vicious chi. You should also wear more of the colour white, as well as gold jewellery to diffuse excess Earth energies. Mistakes at work can end up costing you dearly, so make sure to double check everything.

The Dragon should endeavor to make big moves this month as you have the Heaven Star bringing you new opportunities, as well as support and recognition from the right people. You don’t have to work too hard to reap good results, and going the extra mile may just end up triggering the extraordinary success luck brought by your Big Auspicious Stars. A really good time to step out of your comfort zone. Take advantage of these auspicious energies by placing the Heavenly Star Windchime in the SE.

An easy-going month when everything goes to plan. Your combination of stars, #8 and #2, form the powerful Sum-of-Ten, which means you are likely to achieve whatever goals you set for yourself. Activate by carrying the Sum-of-Ten Amulet. The presence of the monthly Illness Star, however, does not bode well for your vitality and health. You could find yourself tiring out more quickly, or feeling under the weather more often. Remember to pace yourself. Protect against ill health with the Wu Lou in the South of your home and by carrying the Health Vibrations Mirror. Love luck improves, so if things in your relationship have been tense lately, this is a good month to turn things around.

A good time to stay busy, as positive results follow much of your efforts. If you want to stand out at work, be more proactive and spread goodwill when you can. Play your cards right, and there could even be a promotion on the cards. Place the Dragon Tortoise Ru Yi on your desk to amplify career luck. Also a bountiful month for those of you in business. A good month to roll out new projects and to sign new deals. Tap into the month’s wealth luck by placing the Pak Choy in the NW and carrying the Big Wealth Bull Amulet.

BOAR – Relationships become Extra Meaningful

Things are looking up for the Boar. The Prosperity Star brings you auspicious energies of health, wealth and happiness. Conflict chi subsides, allowing your relationships to blossom. You could discover new allies at work or form new alliances in business. Because the #8 enhances wealth luck, there will be opportunities to make money.

Best to keep this area of the home and office quiet for now. Remove all plants, chimes and bells. Calm the argumentative vibrations here with the Trinity of Apples and a red carpet.
