СКАЧАТЬ personal fortunes. For Oxen who are enjoying romance, marriage and/or settling down with someone are possibilities this year. Some Oxen could start a family or see their family increase in numbers. Domestically, these can be fine and often special times.

      Shared interests and family occasions can also bring memorable moments. There may be personal and family news to celebrate as well as the realization of some much-anticipated plans. As ever, Oxen will advise certain family members over key decisions and their wise counsel and solid nature will be much valued.

      With travel well aspected, they should also take advantage of any chances to go away with their loved ones. A holiday and trips to certain attractions can be much appreciated.

      Socially, the Ox year can bring an increase in activity, with Oxen themselves enjoying spending time with their friends and meeting new people. Such is the nature of the year that some new contacts could be especially helpful with certain undertakings. Indeed, throughout the year, Oxen will have many people rooting for them and encouraging them on.

      At work, many will be content to focus on their existing role and use their current skills. Work-wise, Ox years are not always straightforward, though, and certain duties and objectives may be problematic. With support and skill, however, Oxen can still accomplish a great deal and some will have the chance to move to a more specialist role. Steady progress can be made this year.

      Oxen who are unfulfilled where they are or are seeking work should give careful thought to how they see themselves developing. By obtaining advice and following it, many will be successful in securing the chance to establish themselves in a new role. This may require time, but Ox years reward commitment.

      Progress made at work will help financially and many Oxen will be able to go ahead with plans and purchases they have long considered, including travel.

      Personal interests can also be satisfying and Oxen who would welcome new challenges should set time aside to pursue something different. This is an excellent year to follow through ideas, make some changes and enjoy some new interests. Also, Oxen deserve some treats and some ‘me time’.

      In general, the Ox year holds considerable potential for Oxen. On a personal level, there could be celebrations, special times and new love to enjoy. New activities could add interest to the present time, while at work there will be opportunities for Oxen to demonstrate their skills and move ahead, albeit steadily. A full and fulfilling year and on a personal level an often special one too.

      Tips for the Year

      Much can change this year and you can be firmly in the driving seat, but you need to decide on your route and set forth. This may require effort, but can offer substantial benefits too. And there will be support, goodwill and good personal times along the way.

      Ox Fortunes in the Year of the Tiger

      There will be many times during the Tiger year when Oxen will look askance at developments and despair of the pace with which they are happening. Tiger years are fast-moving and lack the stability that Oxen favour. But, while this is not an easy year for them, Oxen are made of stern stuff and, with care, can still benefit.

      With the aspects as they are, they should, however, proceed cautiously and, when situations call for it, keep a low profile. Although Oxen are usually forthright, in volatile situations they should consider their responses carefully. ‘A word once spoken cannot be retrieved’, as the Chinese proverb tells us, and Oxen would do well to bear this in mind this year. In addition, while they may have doubts over certain developments, sometimes their initial fears could be misplaced and patience will often be the best approach.

      A feature of Tiger years is that they give rise to ideas and initiatives, and this is particularly evident in the workplace. Often new systems and ways of working will be introduced and Oxen, who favour tradition, could feel uneasy about the changes and the inevitable teething problems they bring. To compound situations, new colleagues and/or the unhelpful attitude of some could be of concern, but amid the challenges, there are important gains to be had. Sometimes training will be available which will not only further the skills of Oxen but also be helpful in their subsequent progress. Also, as workloads increase and staff change, openings can arise. Tiger years can be demanding – and exasperating – but, by being prepared to adapt, learn and make the most of situations, Oxen can make headway.

      With the Tiger year being one of change, some Oxen will seek a position elsewhere and some will decide to take their career in an entirely new direction. For these Oxen, as well as those seeking work, obtaining a new position will require great effort, but with persistence and initiative, they can succeed. Many redoubtable Oxen can triumph this year in spite of often difficult conditions.

      Financially, too, this is a need for care. Not only could there be increased accommodation (and commuting) costs, but equipment could fail, necessitating repair or replacement. With many outgoings likely, Oxen need to manage their situation carefully as well as make advance provision for forthcoming expenses and more substantial purchases.

      A more positive area is personal interests. With all the activity of the year, Oxen will often be glad to spend time on their own pursuits. Sometimes new ideas or equipment will enable them to further what they do. Also, if they would like to introduce a new element into their lifestyle, they should consider taking up different activities. Busy they may be, but recreational interests offer real benefit. For the more creative, Tiger years can be stimulating and inspiring times.

      Oxen will appreciate their home life this year – indeed, some will regard their home as a sanctuary from outside pressures. All will enjoy sharing interests with their loved ones as well as deciding on key plans and purchases, including travel. This is a year favouring collective effort and input.

      Also, in view of the pressures and changes Oxen face this year, it is important they speak of their concerns, so that others can better understand and help. If tired or tense, they should also be careful not to take irritations out on others. Here again, openness and willingness to consult others can be of particular value.

      Oxen would also do well to keep their wits about them in social situations this year. An inadvertent comment or lapse could cause problems. Life may not always be straightforward in Tiger years, but despite the variable aspects, there will be social occasions that Oxen can greatly enjoy and the chance to relax will do them good.

      Overall, Oxen may not welcome the volatility seen in Tiger years, but by making the best of situations, they can discover new strengths, and sometimes new interests too, as well as derive pleasure from their home life and shared activities.

      Tips for the Year

      Be flexible. That way you can gain more from what opens up this year. Also, devote time to your own interests and your home life. They can be valuable in this often pressured and fast-moving year.

      Ox Fortunes in the Year of the Rabbit

      A much-improved year for Oxen. With focus, they can make good headway at work, while on a personal level, there are good times to be had. While the aspects are supportive, Oxen cannot expect instant results – Rabbit years reward patient endeavour – but the steady pace of the year will better suit the Ox temperament.

      Any Oxen who start the year dissatisfied should concentrate on the now rather than feel hindered by what has gone before. With a willingness to move forward, they can take important steps and regain more control over their situation.

      For those whose lifestyle has got out of balance, this is an excellent year to rectify matters. If personal interests have had to be set aside due to other pressures, Oxen should ensure they allow time for them this year. With the accent on СКАЧАТЬ
