What Does 2020 Have in Store
for You Based on Your
Chinese Zodiac Sign?
RAT
Since 2020 is the year of the Rat, people under this sign
may feel like they have a dark cloud hovering over their
heads. However, it is important to note that this is largely
a matter of perspective. The year of the Metal Rat is filled
with opportunities for success for everyone, so don’t let
anxiety or negativity ruin it for you.
OX
Those born under the Ox sign are dependable and strong,
but sometimes their steadfastness makes them a bit
stubborn. This can pose a problem during a year that is
ruled by the Metal element since Metal is also tough and
unwavering. Success and luck are still ready and waiting
for the Ox in 2020, but people of this Chinese zodiac sign
will need to be more flexible in order to attain great things
this year.
TIGER
Described as powerful, adventurous, and passionate, the
Tiger should enjoy great fortune in 2020. This year is all
about the willingness to take the jump into new, unexplored
territories, and the Tiger is ready to pounce. It will be a
rockstar year for this sign, as long as they don’t get involved
in too many high-risk scenarios and get in over their heads.
RABBIT
In a year that prizes the ability to put oneself out into the
world and engage in new experiences, the Rabbit may end
up feeling a bit uncomfortable. The Rabbit’s need for peace
and quiet may inhibit them from going out and taking full
advantage of this auspicious year. Be willing to take more
chances. Taking those chances and not being afraid to fail
are actually two life lessons you can’t live without.
DRAGON
Dragons are flashy, wild, and charismatic. They love any
opportunity to shine, and the year of the Metal Rat gives
them ample opportunity. The Dragon will be riding high this
year, but therein also lies potential danger. Dragons can
easily get carried away, so be sure to maintain a level of
self-awareness before things get out of control. Dragons
should also beware of their own arrogance.
SNAKE
The Snake is a complex character: generous yet cunning,
cautious yet sly. The focus of 2020 for the Snake is going to
be on relationships, both professional and personal. How
you cultivate these relationships will determine how far you
get in discovering your true self and what you ultimately
want to do in life.
HORSE
The Horse will have the opposite problem that the Rabbit
will have in 2020. Where the Rabbit will naturally be
cautious about the new prospects springing up in the year
of the Metal Rat, the Horse will perhaps be too eager. The
year of the Rat has positive implications for everyone, but
the excitable Horse will need to rein in excessive emotions
in order to reap those benefits.
GOAT
The Goat is gentle, passive, and family-oriented. With their
even temper, those born under this Chinese zodiac sign
will be able to sail through 2020 with minimal problems.
Don’t let your love of peace and stability stand in the way
of change and golden opportunities, though.
MONKEY
The Monkey is fun and outgoing, but the year of the Metal
Rat will require more patience and orderliness in order to
achieve success. People with this Chinese zodiac sign will
have a hard time in 2020 if they do not find a way to focus.
But the Monkey is no fool. Once on the right path, they
have the wit and resourcefulness to follow through and
make good things happen.
ROOSTER
The Rooster is a more grounded and straightforward
version of the Dragon. This Chinese zodiac sign is proud
and likes to show off, but being too self-centered will not
get them anywhere this year. Success in 2020 for this sign
will find its anchor in its relationships. Zoom out and focus
on the bigger picture as well as the needs of others and
you will find yourself enriched as well.
DOG
The Dog is another Chinese zodiac sign that will have a
pretty easy year. In a time of new beginnings, all you have
to do is follow your good nature. If you want something, go
get it, and be your honest, gregarious, and loyal self along
the way. You are a person of principles, and you don’t have
to sacrifice those principles to get where you want to be.
PIG
People in this Chinese zodiac sign will find joy and good
fortune as a result of their best characteristics: intelligence,
kindness, and honesty. However, the Pig must always
remember that not everyone will reciprocate their kindness
and hard work. Be sure to keep your wits about you to
avoid being taken for granted.
