Monkey Chinese Horoscope

Halfway between last week's eclipsing Full Moon and next week's eclipsing New Moon, the lucrative month of the Rooster is in its waning phase but with time to get the most out of its influence. While for the Monkey this can be the most lucrative month of any lunar year, it is not just about the money. Following on from the month of the Monkey, the month of the Rooster is a chance to take the intentions and resolutions forged during the launch of your new personal 12 month lunar cycle and start putting this into practice. The Rooster gives you the confidence to go after the things you deserve while across all the currencies in your life, the laws of attraction will be more effective.
Year of the Dragon
Feb 10, 2024 - Jan 28, 2025
For the Monkey, this is the year that you have been waiting for, with life now able to be viewed in technicolour rather than in black and white. For you, the lights will come on the moment the Year of the Dragon begins on 10th February and they will stay on until it ends on 29th January 2025. What makes the Year of the Dragon such a special year for you is not just that this puts the focus on the more adventurous side of life’s fence, where the focus is on adventure, travel, learning and discovery. This is partly because the Dragon gives you the confidence to embrace life, making it hard to watch from the sidelines, but this is also a year for exploring the things that you are passionate about and for experiencing life firsthand.

What also makes this such a good year for you is that the Monkey and Dragon are part of the same triad of affinity, with a similar DNA. As the Monkey and Dragon are the best of friends, life will flow more smoothly, and this will genuinely be a lucky year and especially when you put in the effort instead of waiting for things to happen. This means that the month of the Dragon, which will run from 9th April to 8th May and the month of the Monkey, which this year will run from 4th August to 3rd October will be especially good months. As will be the playful and creative month of the Rat, also part of your triad of affinity, which will run from 1st December to 31st December.

Throughout the Year of the Dragon, its bold and daring influence can be felt, but this will also have an influence on the different lunar months. For example, in months like the competitive and professionally charged month of the Snake, from 8th May to 7th June, you might be more focused on your professional life, but the Dragon’s influence could see you looking further afield or ready to embark on a new professional adventure. In all aspects of your life, this will make it harder to stay in a rut or to get stuck in the weeds, with the Dragon helping you to focus on the big picture and on new and different ways of doing things. Meanwhile, a month like the month of the Goat, from 6th July to 4th August could see the Dragon’s influence call for change in many aspects of your life.
