Predictions of 12 Zodiac in the Year of Goat

RAT 鼠

(1924 – 1936 – 1948 – 1960 – 1972 – 1984 – 1996)
 After changes, calm

goat01-ratEverything depends on what happened during the year of the Horse. The opposition between what happened between the sign of that year (2014) and the Rat is a phenomenon to which Chinese fortune-tellers give much importance. It signals, more than anything else, change (often of a negative sort). If this change has effectively taken place (by January 2015), then those born during the year of the Rat should expect calm now. It would appear that the energy of the clash will be “drained” via this concrete event. If this is not the case, the first half of the year of the Goat (until July 2015) may still hold some surprises. All of this is in agreement with the predictions of the Chinese almanacs.

Apart from this, the year of the Goat promises to be more peaceful, with a turn toward progress. Personality clashes and misunderstandings in relationships with other people must still be avoided, but the tone is clearly positive. Those born during the year of the Rat will have the opportunity to show their bravery and meet new people, and must establish a strategy oriented toward the future, planting the seeds today to be harvested later.

The almanacs refer to the presence of a “star” this year, a sort of Cupid, which will “patronize” very special relationships that will be fulfilling, though fleeting…

 OX 牛

(1925 – 1937 – 1949 – 1961 – 1973 – 1985 – 1997)
Between stagnation and chang

goat02-oxThose born during the year of the Ox will face a curious dilemma. On the one hand, they will have a year under the sign of another “animal” with many similarities. Both are related to a country life and peaceful ambiences dominated by the earth element, in their yin root. This can be good, but perhaps too good… One of the almanacs goes as far as to use the image of two farm fields with a good deal of potential but with no dynamism for development. A waste.

But on the other hand, it must be considered that the Ox and the Goat are on opposite sides of the zodiac, generating a “clash of energies”. This means changes, some of them desirable, others not. But always changes, an alteration of the status quo, including travels. In the midst of this relative uncertainty, some almanacs point out that people born during the year of the Ox should take advantage of this period to focus their efforts on issues relating to their professional career, since this is the most promising area of their lives. In the area of personal emotions, perspectives will be better for women.

The almanacs see 2015 as a decisive year for Oxen. Despite changes and a few surprises, they will ultimately find themselves in a position of greater authority, due to the power of the wood element. They will have their lives under control.

Closest ally of the year: the Horse


 TIGER 虎

(1926 – 1938 – 1950 – 1962 – 1974 – 1986 – 1998)
A charming Tiger…

goat03-tigerThe symbolism given in most almanacs generally shows that the Tiger tends to dominate the Goat (sign of the year), or rather, will have supremacy over events. At the same time, the presence of a symbolic and very desirable star appears: Celestial Happiness. This star promises just what its name indicates: happiness, and will give the capacity to positively influence other people. It’s very positive that this is happening now that Tigers will find themselves constantly “surrounded” by people who can be either friends or rivals in equal measure. In many cases, the use of force will be completely useless, while diplomacy and understanding will work miracles.

Using force (which Tigers usually have a lot of) must ultimately be channeled toward obtaining concrete results, in work and business. Money and material goods will be the main focus. In this area, the almanacs say, there is great potential during this year of the Goat. But it must not be forgotten that the good fortune of Celestial Happiness will also apply to romantic life; the males in particular will benefit.

The Tiger is one of the three signs with good “luck” in love this year – as the almanacs point out. Even in less romantic issues, their personal charm will be magical.

 RABBIT 兔

(1927 – 1939 – 1951 – 1963 – 1975 – 1987 – 1999)
Getting along is necessary

goat04-rabbitThe path to success lies in relationships with other people and the help that these people can give. The promise of good news on the romantic side of life, which the almanacs predict for the end of the year of the Horse, may still come to pass during the current year (if this has not happened already), up until the month of July. But the real issue at hand now is the relationship with others in all aspects of life. For example, in professional life success will come not so much from personal effort but rather as a consequence of the intervention of other people. In business life and that which has to do with material gains, things will be easier when resulting from family relationships or friends or good impressions made on partners or clients. In other words, the key factor for every event will be the networks of contacts and relationships that will allow real miracles to happen.

Therefore, Rabbits should step out this year and cultivate relationships with other people, in as disinterested a way as possible. Everything else that has to happen will happen naturally and spontaneously.

A decisive aspect, making this a very positive year for Rabbits, is the fact that their sign and the sign of the year, the Goat, belong to the same zodiac family, together with the Pig

DRAGON 龍

(1928 – 1940 – 1952 – 1964 – 1976 – 1988 – 2000)
A generous Dragon

goat05-dragonThe Dragon and the Goat are predominantly dominated by the earth element, which creates some affinity between them. But in reality, the two signs live in different worlds. The dragon was made to fly, going beyond daily life, while the Goat belongs to the down-to-earth world of farm fields. Some almanacs, playing off of the fact that the Dragon also possesses some of the water element, which is very desirable for the farm, conclude that the Dragon can help the Goat though the Goat cannot help the Dragon. In other words, the expectations of the Dragons for this year must be moderated, namely in areas concerning money, business, and material goods, which show little promise. It’s not a good year to invest – a more conservative strategy would be more appropriate.

Regarding careers and reputations, 2015 will bring new events. These are the areas where efforts should be directed, with work always conducted as part of a team, mobilizing the wills of others. Finally, relations with other people tend to occupy an important place, but not to the point of rousing any “chemicals” that produce radical changes.

One of the keys for the situation of Dragons in 2015 is the strength of the wood element. This tends to discipline earth (the dominant element for Dragons), which is good, awakening ambition and competitiveness.

 SNAKE 蛇

(1929 – 1941 – 1953 – 1965 – 1977 – 1989 – 2001)
Hibernating…

goat06-snakeThe universal energy qi circulates in the Snake for the Goat. The Snake, strong and protected, can help the Goat. And, as it helps, it will also conquer… Translating this into practical life, this means that the path to success often happens to shine through the success of others. For example, those born during the year of the Snake help their collaborators to shine and, as a result of this, their own reputation will be reinforced. In addition, in their role as parents, they succeed in helping their children to obtain good results in their studies (or in professional life), shining in this way. On the other hand, those born during the year of the Snake should themselves take advantage of all opportunities to put their own value on display. This should be seen as sowing seeds for the future, an investment to be recouped later.

The time will come to reap the benefits. Another particularity of this year is the presence of the Yi Ma star, the “mobility star”, which indicates the probability of movements and travels. Whenever one of these situations arises, it’s good news, a bearer of good fortune.
Despite the predisposition for travel and movement, this is a year of accumulation of strength and knowledge. Most of the time, Snakes will remain coiled around themselves, though actively preparing for the future

HORSE 馬

(1930 – 1942 – 1954 – 1966 – 1978 – 1990 – 2002)
From night to day

goat07-horseIn general, the almanacs consider that the past year of the Horse will not have been easy for people born under this sign. Even though there may have been success, the costs for that success will have been high… But for this year of the Goat the predictions have a completely different tone. The Horse and the Goat get along quite well together, allowing for good partnerships with other people, or even with certain circumstances. Moreover, the capacity to form complimentary relationships in all aspects of life is one of the key factors this year. Another component is protection. Whether there are problems or not, there will always be someone to protect and someone who helps, as the almanacs assure.

Or else there will simply be good luck! Passionate energy is the gift of Horses, which makes them adored by other people. The flipside of this, in its symbolism, that they spend their lives working for others. Now is the time to make peace with this fact. Don’t force yourselves too much, and leave opportunity for good luck! It’s that simple.

The wood element, which will be particularly strong this year, “feeds” the fire of the Horse. Or rather, it makes it stronger, preparing them for the future. This is good for learning and academic life.

GOAT 羊

(1931 – 1943 – 1955 – 1967 – 1979 – 1991 – 2003)

A bit of caution goes a long way

goat08-horseThis is the year of the Goat, which is not necessarily good news for people born under this sign. It’s as if someone entered into land controlled by another person (a similar person), generating a reaction from the “owner” of the land. This is merely an image. In practice, Goats should expect competition more than anything else. It’s clear that if they are careful in their path toward “foreign lands”, the year may end positively. The almanacs recommend behavior that is as “low profile” as possible. Whenever a situation arises that may lead to conflict, it is recommended to retreat, work around it, avoid confrontation! Despite a certain tendency to imagine that everything will go wrong, the truth is that this year should be taken as a time of objective progress toward success.

It’s worthwhile to be ambitious now, aiming more at future success than immediate success. Money and love are, at the outset, the aspects that will benefit the least. But in the concrete case of the males it may even be a positive year in terms of personal life.

Despite some “quaking”, the wood element this year will play a decisive role. It disciplines and brings out the ambition in the earth element of the Goat. It’s forward progress, guarded but determined, toward power

 MONKEY 猴

(1932 – 1944 – 1956 – 1968 – 1980 – 1992 – 2004)
Love and Success

goat09-monkeyOn a symbolic level, the Monkey is intelligent, active, and a lover of freedom. However, the Goat is very connected to life in farm areas and is a peaceful animal. The Monkey may enter foreign territory and make himself accepted, while the Goat doesn’t care about this. A perfect situation. In terms of energy circulation, two factors must be kept in mind. First, the earth of the Goat feeds, supports, and protects the metal of the Monkey. This predicts a year of some comfort, in which Monkeys will move toward a more lucid, creative side of life.

Second, the presence of the wood element must be kept in mind. Wood is an element that is also strong this year, representing money and material goods. Opportunities will tend to present themselves spontaneously and, in large part, as a result of a good network of personal contacts, which will work perfectly. Finally, those born under the Monkey sign will be accompanied by the presence of the Star of Love, which will guarantee a very special capacity in relationships with others, whether in love or in other aspects of life.

The Star of Love is one of the dominant “influences” of the year. But those born during the year of the Monkey also have the presence of the Sun, which signifies that people of the males will have a decisive role in their lives.

Closest ally of the year: the Rat


 ROOSTER 雞

(1933 – 1945 – 1957 – 1969 – 1981 – 1993 – 2005)
A holiday feeling

goat10-roosterIn business or in issues regarding money and material goods, those born under the sign of the Rooster will need to count on their own efforts above all else. Nevertheless, this aspect of life will be one of the catalysts of the year, and opportunities will arise. The other catalyst will have to do with a certain environment of “recharging batteries”, which can happen, for instance, because of the decision to learn something new, in the area of professional life, or personal life. In romantic life, people of the males will benefit the most, but the males will have a positive note as well. The final recommendation is: it is ok to relax a bit, within reasonable limits. But at the same time, very concrete objectives must be defined to be obtained throughout the year.

Above all, practical issues must not be ignored, particularly since this will be one of the catalysts of the year. This way the year will be clearly positive, indicating progress and even unexpected luck.

Some almanacs argue that this year, Roosters will be somewhat lacking in energy. Their dominant element, metal, won’t have the opportunity to shine, due to a lack of water and excess of earth. But this will only be a passing phase.

Closest ally of the year: the Snake


DOG 狗

(1934 – 1946 – 1958 – 1970 – 1982 – 1994 – 2006)
A year of opportunity

goat11-dogIn symbolic terms, the Dog and the Goat are connected to country life and farms. Their tendency is to find pragmatic solutions for their respective territorial management. It’s always possible to simplify things that would otherwise be complicated, as one Chinese almanac reminds us. This is a good thing. But one less positive element has to do with a certain irritability and a more emotional attitude of those born under the sign of the Dog. Once this aspect is under control, this year will bring with it events that center on professional life, with promising opportunities. Nevertheless, to be able to take advantage of them, Dogs will need to turn to the help of colleagues or associates, which makes good relationships with others one of the keys to success.

But it won’t be a good year for investments, and they shouldn’t put too much stock in “big ideas” regarding business. Associates or partners will always end up being the biggest beneficiaries. Finally, in romance, the positive outweighs the negative, though not overwhelmingly.

According to the almanacs, for those born in the year of the Dog, a “star” emerges in their destinies: the Moon. This means a constructive entry on the scene by a person of the males. This will be positive and decisive for success.

Closest ally of the year: the Tiger


PIG 豬

(1935 – 1947 – 1959 – 1971 – 1983 – 1995 – 2007)
In harmony with the year

goat12-pigFor the Pig, the wood element – particularly strong this year – signifies action, the expression of personal talents and reputation, or even fame. The same element has to do with the special connection that exists between the Pig and the Goat, which predicts the appearance of very favorable circumstances. It will be easier to finish personal projects. The universal energy qi circulates in the water element (that exists inside the Pig sign) for the wood element this year. This creates a beneficial “current” which must be taken advantage of. Pigs must remain attentive to the circumstances that develop and, without fear, allow themselves to be carried by the energy flow. Finally, contact networks – whether with friends, family, colleagues, or clients – will play a very important role throughout the year. Additionally, people born under the Pig sign have a special gift for creating a good environment in personal relationships.

Finally, the nature of the luck that tends to accompany Pigs throughout their lives must be kept in mind, and that this will be evident this year. Despite the fact that the capacity to present themselves and shine are one of the upsides of this year, the earth element (of the goat) must not be forgotten, which helps to discipline the water element of the Pig. It’s important to maintain high standards and ambition throughout the year
