Zodiacs

Time to rewild the world? Not in the first month of your year, Tiger. With the Tai Sui and a slew of inedible planets heading your way, the beginning of the year is ripe for misunderstanding and your lack of love for those who ramble on and on might be more apparent than usual. If your ambition and desire for great accomplishments has no other outlet, then you'll enjoy debating with convenience store workers on the relationship between prices and goods placement. So begins the year - a patch in the summer will be similar, but the rest looks rather good.

 Health

There are many ways to be unhealthy - one is to concentrate on your prey when you should be obeying road rules. The wicked Sword Blade Star is looking for a home in a warm body so stay away from metallic objects. Either don't move to them or get out of their way if they come to you. You've lovely large teeth for ripping so make sure you floss regularly and your attention to detail will have you roaring again.

 Wealth

As you pad through the jungle of money and possessions, keep in mind that there are banks besides blood banks. No one is going to let the money cat out of the bag; you'll have to go in yourself and get it, but it is real and there for the taking. Make sure that no one is cheetahing you out of anything on the way in or out and you'll have earned your stripes. As for advice, don’t beware so much the Ides of March as those of the entire year, and look out for the late summer missing money syndrome.

 Love

If anything is pulling on the heart strings this year, you'll want it to be your teeth into the sinews of your intended repast. Build on the foundation from last year and you'll be chuffing along. If your love is now a suitcase travelling the world without you, you'll want to get it off the carousel this year and put it in storage. Good things will occur but that tiger-sized love of grand projects might be on a slow burn.

 Career

Your ambition is to move closer to your apex predator status this year, so make use of the Cultural Flourishing Star to take any exams or tests that you need to claw past. Your lunchtime smorgasbord may not be much better than last year, but the supply of tasty mammals roaming your savannah looks constant and reliable. Eat like there is no tomorrow and tomorrow will be here soon enough. If competition tries to elbow in, then eat that as well.

Guiding hexagram from the Yi-Jing (Book of Changes)

Judgement:
The Gentle. Success through what is small. It furthers one to have somewhere to go. It furthers one to see the great man.
Image:
Winds following one upon the other: the image of the Gently Penetrating. This the superior man spreads his commands abroad and carries out his undertakings.
The Forest of Changes:
Xiang Liang went west and attacked Qin, relying on the strength of his army. Many were the ways to the enemy, but he and his men perished.
Verdict:
Having the ability to cower those around you will not advance your cause this year; spend the year as if you were someone else, stay low key and let any ruckus you didn’t cause sort itself out. Adversaries can wait until the new year.
