The Horse’s home life will be quite active this year and there will be a lot of Horses taking on big projects around the home in the way of renovations or re-designing. These plans will require many changes, hard work and some ingenuity on the part of the Horse, but it will be well worth it in the end. The Horse will enjoy harmonious relationship with the family members this year provided they all communicate well on concerns, problems and plans. The Horse wishing to change residence or purchasing a new home can do rather well this year, with the proviso that they seek professional advice in all legal matters.

Horses who are single and those who have recently fallen in love are in for an exciting and hopeful time. Love, dating and marriage are very high on the cards. Singles need to be patient though and for those who are attached the support of their partner will be an invaluable asset in getting through this year.

Overall 2016 will be a rewarding year for the Horse. Like the Snake, the Horse also holds the Fire element as a primary element. The general atmosphere of 2016 is still very beneficial to the Horse. They will have ample gains and success in business; enjoy great liaisons and be triumphant in all their endeavors.

They should maintain a balanced lifestyle however in order to keep their health in check. Those Horses who are dormant for the majority of the day, such as those who are employed in an office, must partake in regular exercises to foster good health.

Horses are in affinity with the Sheep/Goat. For their protection, they should have a key chain pendant of a Sheep/Goat or a Gold plated Chinese Animal protection Talisman of a Goat with them at all times.

The Goat's home life will also require good communication with the family members. There will be changes happening in and around the house this year, including daily household chores that would require everyone’s ready cooperation. When dealing with the handling of these projects, the Goat should remember that in Monkey years plans can unexpectedly change and different options can suddenly become available at the last moment. It’s best therefore to undertake each project one at a time to avoid wasting effort, time and money.

The Goat's social life will be interesting and joyful, with the Monkey years favoring joint activities in 2016. Plenty of good times are in store as long as Goat remembers to be mindful of other's feelings and needs.

Another area of the Goats life that warrants attention in 2016 is their lifestyle. The Goat should consider their personal well-being and adapt a healthier routine with nutrition, exercise or sports. But there will be a lot of demands on their time this year and they need to manage it well in order to make sure that they do not miss out on furthering their own personal interests and enjoyment.

Despite the windfall of money, the Goat must manage their finances well this year, as there will be a lot of demands on their spending with a great many expenditures, projects for home improvements, social events, hobbies and more. They should also not be remiss in carefully scrutinizing contracts, lease agreements and do the paperwork well before signing or finalizing any transactions to avoid financial problems down the line.

Overall, things will go exceptionally well for the Goat this year with many areas providing fulfillment and joy for their life and only a small fraction warrants care. More autonomous and, above all, more selective in their choices, whether sentimental or professional, Goats should emerge successful from most bad situations they face during 2016 and spend a wonderful year. For singles it isn't time yet to be thinking about moving into a serious relationship. Goats in couples are at risk of experieincing passing tensions with their partner, but nothing serious.

Goat/ Sheep are in affinity with the Horse. For their protection, they should have a key chain pendant of a Horse or a Gold plated Chinese Animal protection Talisman of a Horse with them at all times.

Have a fantastic year of the Monkey.

Fini.
