Monkey People Monkeys are popular, naughty, very competitive, forceful, and control freaks. They're playful, clever, imaginative, crafty, witty, and have a magnetic personality. As well as emotionally truthful, engrossed in the opposite sex, and intrusive at finding unconventional solutions to old problems. Their self assurance makes them fast learners and determined leaders. However, monkeys are also reckless, stubborn, aggressive and selfish.
If you are a Monkey You should be lucky in everything except health this year. Improve your lifestyle and well-being, especially in finance where you enjoy a competitive edge. Wealth and career are positive, but be cautious when investing.
Your perfect partner is a rat or an ox, although you flourish with a rabbit or a dragon - you are least harmonious with a tiger or pig person. Your ambition and drive will do you well in finance, with a career in sales, marketing or advertising. Monkeys also prosper in law, medicine, writing, and many are famous movie stars.
Predictions for this Year of the Monkey This will be a year of optimism and adventure. Anything can happen. Everything will be fast, including settlement of conflicts. Although people will be more boisterous, they also become more docile and open to change.
Travel accidents or catastrophic events are probable. Many will die. However, its a time to investigate, discover, create and take risks. Luck can strike any time. Seize opportunity and go for it! Break the routine. However, monkeys can be unpredictable and jealous.
Wealth will reward risk takers because of energy from the fire element. People and money will whiz around the globe even faster with business prospering, yet political upheaval will slow. Courage and originality will succeed - but you need to be able to hang onto the ride even if you have to bluff your way through. Keep fit.
