Your Chinese Horoscope For The Week Of December 1, 2024
Ruled by the week of the dynamic Rat, the week ahead should keep every zodiac on their toes. Opportunities for career advancement abound for ambitious types. Laid-back zodiacs may find the days ahead quite stressful, at least as far as work is concerned. Fortunately, there will be plenty of social distractions. Letting off steam at parties will be a welcome release.
Rat
Having a big project keeps you focused and productive. It may be necessary to abandon opportunities that don’t get off the ground. Fortunately, you’ve always been good at assessing which possibilities will pay off. Ultimately, you’ll fare best with an endeavor that can be dispatched quickly and efficiently. Leave artisanal jobs to Oxen and Sheep; they have the patience you lack.
Ox
Your honesty and humor make a terrific impression on everyone this week. If you’re yearning for romance, you can find it with someone who is outspoken and smart. While you prefer to avoid testy subjects like religion and politics in mixed settings, your other half has no trouble saying exactly what they think. If you already have a partner, you’ll get a great deal of pleasure watching them tell off a person secretly find arrogant.
Tiger
You have a choice to forgive, forget, and move on. If you can’t get over a betrayal, give yourself permission to walk away from a relationship without feeling guilty. You have every right to limit your circle to people who share your love and loyalty. That doesn’t mean you need friends who approve of everything you do. However, you do expect your loved ones to come to your defense when you’ve been unfairly attacked. Keep a healthy distance from anyone who will sell you out whenever it’s convenient.
Rabbit
You’ll have a wonderful opportunity to show off your powers of analysis. Shopping for gifts will be lots of fun, since you’ll hit upon the perfect choices for colleagues, relatives, and friends. Your pleasure will be doubled when you get to wrap these items; you’ll love picking gorgeous paper, ribbons, and tags for these presents. A person’s hurtful words will haunt you until you take a few steps back and assess them for what they really are: proof that they’re wildly jealous of you. Too bad; so sad.
Dragon
Competing against a rival who isn’t nearly as talented or smart as you will seem like child’s play. Unfortunately, this individual has a lot of connections that will advance their interests. If you feel like the deck has been stacked against you, maintain a dignified silence. An influential person who observes your stellar performance will offer you a high-profile position that is worthy of your gifts. There really is a silver lining to the clouds above you.
Snake
If there’s anything you can’t stand, it’s unsolicited advice. Unfortunately, a colleague, relative, or friend can’t resist telling you what to do. It may be best to avoid this person like the plague while you’re weighing your options. Retreating to a peaceful hideaway gives you a chance to listen to your intuition. Disobeying conventional wisdom will create quite a stir, but at least you will have satisfied your conscience.
Horse
A family feud is making you anxious. No matter how hard you try bringing each side together, the two sides continue to fight. It’s time to step away from the fray and attend to your own business. You have some exciting work opportunities ahead. Taking a position in a different city or country can solve lots of your problems. It’s important for you to establish an identity apart from the people who raised you.
Sheep
You’ll make friends in high places this December, but these alliances are no substitute for your soul family. When you feel like life becomes superficial, schedule a lunch date or Zoom call with someone you have known and loved for years. This person will bring you back down to earth very quickly. Soon, your dissatisfaction will be replaced by laughter. Best of all, your enjoyment of the holiday season will come flooding bac.
Monkey
Striking a healthy balance between your professional and personal lives is critical. Although your boss wants to command all your time and energy, you have bigger fish to fry. Spending time with a romantic prospect will be a lot more fun and rewarding. Furthermore, your friends and family are clamoring to see you, too. Suppress your people-pleasing instincts and stand up for what you want. You have a right to enjoy the holiday season, just like everybody else.
Rooster
You’re ready to defend your ideas to nay-sayers, even at the risk of appearing disagreeable. Keep pressing your point of view, as it is the winning strategy for solving a problem. Even if the powers-that-be continue along the conventional path, you’ll emerge the victor. That’s because it soon will become obvious that you’re the smartest member of the team. Don’t be surprised when a rival organization offers you a job that pays a lot more than the one you currently hold.
Dog
Enjoying the security you have worked so hard to create is paramount this December. Spend as much time as possible on domestic delights like decorating the house, making holiday delicacies, and playing games with your nearest and dearest. While you’re busy having fun, a work opportunity will arrive from a surprising source. Schedule an interview; your personal happiness will make a great impression and may result in a job offer.
Pig
Although holiday temptations surround you at every turn, it’s important to practice restraint this December. Set limits for how much you will eat and drink each day. By the time the Chinese New Year arrives on January 29, you’ll be in wonderful form. Several people are vying for your romantic attention, but you should keep your options open. If you’re already in a relationship, let your partner command the spotlight for a change.
