Rat - 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, 2020
Rat people “will encounter difficult troubles” in the new year. This is a year where you need to focus on hard work and dedicated effort. Ignore the naysayers and those who do not have the courage to say to your face what they rant about behind your back. If you’re able to keep your eye on the prize, nothing and no one can stop you from achieving great success. Just make sure you do not compromise on your physical and mental health in pursuit of your ambitions.
Ox - 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021
The Ox and Rabbit are known to help each other, so good fortune is on the rise for Ox in 2023. Many who are single might find themselves to be lucky in love this year. Those who are coupled-up, might wish to consider taking their relationship to the next level. If you desire to have children, this year could prove to be a particularly blessed one. Ox is encouraged to work hard and seize every opportunity to make this year even more successful.
Tiger - 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022
This will be a balanced year for those that are Tigers. Your fortune will be better than in 2022, but there will be some twists and turns in the process. Tigers are predicted to be very comfortable in life and work, but it will be important to put aside egos, learn from failures, and examine any shortcomings. Be sure to express gratitude to all those who help you along the way. This year, it would be wise to be conservative with your spending and investments.
Rabbit - 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023
Yes, 2023 is the year of the Rabbit, but it is believed that those entering their zodiac birth year must be prepared for adversity. Astrologers suggest making extra efforts everywhere and to face challenges head on. This year won’t be a particularly smooth one for Rabbits, with numerous twists and turns that will be surprising, but a rainbow will come after the storm. It will be key to remember to surrender to the greater forces rather than to fight them.
Dragon - 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024
According to Chinese astrology, there is no need to worry because the lucky stars will guide Dragons in 2023. For career and finances, this year will be positive with people in positions of influence helping propel you to greater heights. Dragons might earn special tax breaks, or special bonuses or cash rewards. However, in matters of the heart, this year might test you and your temper, so regular meditation could prove to be very beneficial.
2023 will develop smoothly for Snakes with your luck being generally stable. Snake people may receive recognition from superiors, bosses, and people in high positions. Career growth is in the cards for you, but it will come after having to prove yourself. Those who are single, may find themselves not being so for too long. Those who are in a relationship, be careful not to create conflict for the sake of drama and excitement.
Horse - 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014, 2026
The year of the Rabbit might be quite tricky for Horses. The Horse will “enter a year in conflict,” which will have a great impact on your fortunes. 2023 is going to be full of ups and downs, and greater care needs to be taken at work. Be careful before taking bold risks – especially with finances. Avoid rushing through things because that might cause you to make silly mistakes, impacting your work. However, in terms of love and romance, this year may be pleasant and surprisingly prosperous.
Goat must take the practical and pragmatic path, if they wish to find a sense of balance and harmony in their day-to-day life. The more you get swayed by your emotions, the more you’ll find yourself in a sea of self-created chaos. A balanced body leads to a balanced mind, thus be sure to eat a balanced diet and practice the art of moderation. 2023 will be relatively turbulent for Goat, so it’s best to approach it with optimism and to enjoy the good times.
Monkey - 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028
The Rabbit year will bring ups and downs, but Monkeys will be taken care of by lucky stars. For Monkeys, it will be best to persevere in your career and keep looking ahead. Before you know it, things will get far more exciting. You may see a steady rise in finances, but be sure to follow a healthy routine and maintain stable sleep-cycles for optimal wellness and overall happiness.
This is a year where Roosters cannot escape hard work or take shortcuts to achieve goals. Taking the easy way out might just complicate matters more, leading you to have to deal with more problems and strife. Avoid spending frivolously and focus more on saving. 2023 will require you to put in more effort than last year. But although the career and financial predictions look bleak, Roosters will have a good year for love.
Dog - 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018, 2030
Dogs are advised to do their “own thing in a down-to-earth manner” this year. For Dog people, this will be a pleasantly stable one with love and relationships being strong. However, Dogs may experience more decline in health and wealth - so pay more attention to these areas in the Rabbit year. There may be some unexpected events in your career, but rest assured that everything will eventually work out for the best in the end.
Pig - 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031
This year will be a rather delightful one for Pigs. Harmonious work relationships with colleagues and superiors may help facilitate your own rise up the corporate ladder. Those who run their own businesses may get new investors, partners, or new avenues of expansion. Love and romance will be harmonious, and many Pigs might experience an exciting surge of passions. It’s advisable to work hard to have unexpected pleasant surprises and gains this year.
