Chinese Monkey 2018 is one of opportunity for the Monkey. However, to benefit, he will need to make the most of his talents and be prepared to put himself forward. This is a year which favours dedication and effort.
In his work there will some very good opportunities for the Monkey to make headway. However, he would do well to give some thought to his personal development, in particular whether there are any skills it would be useful to improve upon or acquire. By following this up, either through training offered through his work or personal study, he will find that there will be many more possibilities open to him.
Also, looking to develop will give him a sense of moving forward and this will have a positive effect on both his outlook and chances to make further progress.
Many Monkeys will find there will be some good opportunities with their current employer and will find their contacts, in-house knowledge and reputation serving them well over the year. For those who feel there are better prospects elsewhere, who are considering a change of career or who are looking for work, the Rooster year can again provide some excellent openings.
To benefit, these Monkeys will, however, need to remain persistent. With much competition likely, they would do well to emphasize their experience to prospective employers, as well as any recent training and study they have carried out. By presenting themselves in the best possible light, many will secure what will be an interesting position. For work matters April, June, September and October could see encouraging developments.
As far as finances are concerned, however, this is a year for care. In 2018 the Monkey will have many plans he wants to carry out and these, together with his existing commitments, will draw heavily on his resources. The Rooster year will be an expensive one for him and to prevent problems, he could find it helpful to keep a close watch on his financial position and to plan for forthcoming expenses whenever possible. Good discipline and management will help. Also, throughout the year the Monkey should be wary of risks or of becoming involved in speculation or undertakings he knows little about. This is a year when he will need to be thorough and on his guard.
More positively, the Monkey’s domestic life will bring him considerable pleasure over the year. Spending time with his family, whether enjoying mutual interests, going out to special events or carrying out projects in the home or garden, can help the rapport the Monkey so values.
