With less than a week until the Chinese New Year, The Standard's "Countdown to CNY" series will bring you the Spring Festival traditions and even the Chinese zodiac forecast.
If your Chinese zodiac sign is the Rooster – born in 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, or 2017 – here is what Chinese astrology reveals about your prospects for the new year:
Those born in the Year of the Rooster will find the Year of the Horse quite favorable. To further boost your luck, nurture a kind heart and make a habit of performing good deeds. You may also wear dragon- or snake-shaped charms to harness supportive feng shui energy.
When unexpected health issues arise, pay close attention to your body’s signals. Consider seeking professional medical check-ups to uncover any hidden conditions early. For women, this year may bring the potential for pregnancy, though older women should stay mindful of their gynecological health.
Those engaged in fields such as beauty services, women’s fashion, design, creative industries, healthcare, or gynecology can look forward to promising financial gains this year. For investments or partnerships, ensure all financial details are clear and properly documented.
This is a favorable year for marriage. However, married individuals should avoid being overly affectionate with others, as this could lead to complications. Single Rooster men have strong prospects of meeting a compatible partner, especially if open to a relationship with someone older.
