The opportunities for water tigers advancing this year are not strong, but when you're already standing on the top of a mountain - one that you've walked all the way up yourself - the possibilities of advancing may no longer be between you and the world, but between you and yourself. Will the grandmaster be in the mood for love? Will any infernal affairs cloud his lucky star? With all of the petty squabbles and irritations that can break out with the Tai Sui visiting, will this be the year that Tony turns entirely to speaking only with his eyes? Or will his characters be "Taking the Fifth", once upon a time in Hong Kong? The stars say he's going to come through unscathed, and looking forward to opportunities in the years to come.

Wood dragons who have struck out on their own in some way, be it running a corner store or, like Melinda, changed fields, divorced and blazed a trail are due to reap some rewards in 2022. The last couple of years has seen her concentrate her energies on improving the data sets that Covid-19 has presented in various countries. With all forms of business attracting a good position in the dragon firmament this year, we can expect Melinda to be directing considerable funds to areas and populations of the world that need the most help. It's unlikely that the world will see the full extent of her efforts in these projects, but if you get close enough you should find that she has her hand on the helm.

A range of ages and backgrounds didn't get in the way of this phenomenon. Despite there being twelve of them, the heavens insist that their opportunities this year are enhanced by cooperation with other acts. A return to big concerts? Some legal hiccoughs loom unless the details are smoothed out early in the year. Not a small amount of Peach Blossom mist falls on the band and love is predicted to arrive from many angles, some unforeseen. For those not already involved with someone else, the year could be rocky. The band may be creatively paralysed for some time in 2022, but as they have already swum far so quickly a little treading water won't hurt. Attention paid to safety in their performances will be well spent.

As the new Prime Minister, Kishida comes to the position after a substantial political career and from a family long-immersed in Japanese politics. The year is well-aspected for all forms of cooperation and we can expect Kishida to play this out both domestically and internationally. The work environment and possibility of investments are both promising; with his mandate, Kishida has the luxury of enacting some longer-term planning for the Japanese state and solidifying his position in the LDP. Heart, circulatory and teeth issues linger, but they shouldn't stop him from biting off as much as he has the stomach for. Small clashes in the earthly branches may indicate north-south difficulties, but that may be as unimportant as not finding his favourite food in Australia. It should be a smooth beginning for his tenure.

A year for making a change in one's fortune, the headwinds abate. With the assistance of a benevolent figure and the possibility of an advance in one's career, the head of one of the most powerful platforms on the planet is unlikely to remain in his role. Headwinds abating could indicate that countries around the world are going to stop holding Facebook to account, or more likely that Zuckerberg will no longer be there. He may move on to another field where predictions are more likely to bear fruit. Perhaps he will dip his toe into more than one field, travelling farther into the billionaire's playground outside the Karman Line, or furthering the projects that he and his wife initiated through their philanthropy. Oh, and there’s the metaverse out there somewhere. Whatever the year truly holds for Zuckerberg, it will revolve around a development and a realisation of his skills.

A year of good financial possibilities beckons for this newly minted commoner and New Yorker, on the condition that commercial secrets remain just that, so don't expect her to open up to media tell-alls. She is well aspected this year for both advancing at work and hearing the pitter patter of tiny feet at home. The opportunities in New York for her in the curating or art heritage fields are strong enough that she may end up combining both in a very full beginning to this new life. Certainly whatever small 'investments' she makes in either area are likely to pay off later. It being a tiger year, she’ll need to watch her p's and q's or find herself drawn into disputes. To remove this by keeping a low-profile will not always be possible, but the diplomatic standards that formed the background to her childhood should be more than ample to see her through.
