Tiger (1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010)
Your luck-flow is not significantly good as you have no auspicious stars. Stay vigilant and calm and you should be safe.
Career-wise, you have to deal with villains around you as there are lots of inauspicious stars surrounding you. Be on high alert as it is already difficult for you to dodge gossip and back-stabbing from unscrupulous people who will try to cause you “severe damage”.
Guard your job because there could be people who want to grab your rice bowl, or steal your credit.
Your financial luck is weak this year. Avoid gambling and making investments.
Love is elusive, so be patient.
Health-wise, be extra careful while on the road. Watch out for sprains and other physical injuries.

The Grand Duke is sitting in the middle, so, if there is no celebration, there shall be calamities. Therefore, those born in the Year of the Horse may get into trouble easily this year.
If there is some celebration in the family, you might be able to avert calamities, but still you have to be on high alert.
Think before you leap as you are said to be offending the “yearly Grand Duke”. You may feel lost and moody and may make the wrong decisions. Avoid making decisions when you are in an unstable state of emotion, to avoid unwanted calamities.

Monkey (1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004)
You will face numerous obstacles in your career. Very often, things do not progress smoothly because of the deliberate misconduct of some people around you. Do not be disheartened but be optimistic and pro-active. Never give up halfway or you will end up nowhere.
Career-wise, this is a year for conservative defence rather than aggressive attack.
Watch how you spend your money and avoid taking loans.
Health-wise, besides paying close attention to your physical and psychological well-being, take good care of the elders in your family. Go for regular check-ups as a preventative measure.
Rooster (1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005)

Dog (1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006)
The Dog can easily receive help from people around them this year. This year, Dog people may have an excellent performance in career. If the nature of your work requires keen thinking (interior designer, composer or scripwriter), this year, you are full of creativity and have a high chance of climbing the career ladder. However, keep yourself in check. Do not become arrogant or you may lose the support of your friends.
Your wealth looks good this year. Both your mainstream income and other sources of income will yield returns.
Although you have lots of chances to meet people of the opposite sex through your career, romance won’t bloom and you will feel very lonely. Try to share your feelings with your partners or family members. Or join more group activities or learn something new to fill the emptiness.
Be aware of food hygiene as you may have food poisoning this year.
Pay attention to your own safety; you may encounter accidents or suffer injuries.
Pig (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007)
Last year, the Pig people had a clash with the Grand Duke. In the first half of this year, you are still affected by the clash. You have to be persistent, calm and patient in facing all your problems.
After autumn, your condition will improve, especially if you are in marketing or a job that requires you to liaise constantly with people. Career-wise, seek help when the need arises. Do not persist alone or you may end up a complete failure.
This year, you have a “minor depletion” star that will see you indulge in spending on luxury goods. You have to control your urge to spend, to avoid overspending. Besides your usual savings, guard your assets well to prevent theft or robbery.
Your health is poor this year, so be wary of contracting illnesses. Ensure you get enough rest to avoid falling sick. – Majorie Chiew The Star
