Rooster Chinese Horoscope

Right up to Tuesday's New Moon, the Rat's influence is in effect, as it has been for almost the whole of December. For the Rooster, the Rat will always put the focus on home, family and on those rituals and routines that can help you feel grounded and can bring a sense of belonging and over Christmas this has been even more so. With the week also starting under a Rat Moon, this is a chance to embrace the final hours of its influence, while at the same time, there will be a sense of anticipation. It is Tuesday's New Moon that will usher in the playful and creative month of the Ox. As New Year's Eve will be the first full day of the month of the Ox, this will be a chance for a real line in the sand.
Year of the Snake
Jan 29, 2025 - Feb 17, 2026
Now we’re talking! This is the year that you have been waiting for, with the Snake and the Rooster sharing an especially good relationship, in what is considered to be a fortunate year for you. The Snake is a metal/male energy, and the Rooster is a fire/female energy, and this creates some real chemistry, with sparks flying. This creates an especially auspicious relationship year and where in the Year of the Dragon you got glimpses of what could be or you only just missed the bus, this year it won’t elude you. If single this will be an exciting year for love, romance and relationships and if already in a relationship, expect those relationships to improve.

Money is also looking good this year, with the odds of having money coming in favourable and there may even be the prospect of an inheritance or financial settlement going your way. However, the Snake is nothing but financially prudent, so any money that does come in will need to be managed carefully, or it could be a case of ‘easy come, easy go’. This would be a good time to seek out the advice of a financial expert or someone who can advise you, with the Snake presenting wise counsel. While it may seem superficial, the Snake will encourage the Rooster’s love of colour and finery, bringing a desire to ramp up the bling!

As a Rooster you carry a heavier load than other Signs, for you are usually the ‘go to person’ for friends and family and saying ‘no’ can be a problem. The Snake has come along to ask, ‘what about you’? It’s time to bring more fun, colour and spontaneity back into your life. Travel is on the agenda this year, though if you do travel to foreign places watch the food. There is the right mix of professional pressure and opportunity, with a chance that you’ll be working longer hours or cramming more into your day. A promotion or advancement could come through networking or being headhunted.
