Luck (44%, 2.5 stars): Those born in the year of the Dragon have no support from lucky stars this year, causing mood swings and pessimism.

In tough situations, seek help from those you trust. 2022 is a good year for further studies or to upskill. Don’t be too quick to reject new knowledge. Listening and learning more will provide you with more choices for a new start.

Career (40%, 2 stars): This year, it is important to maintain a manageable pace at work. Do not put all your eggs in one basket or implement wholesale reforms without due thoughts. Draw up a comprehensive plan with contingencies, or you could be thrown off when unforeseen problems arise. With little prospects of promotion or salary increment, you may consider changing jobs; however, it may be in your best interest to stay put and pull your weight. Business owners leading traditional enterprises through business transformation should brace and prepare yourselves for challenges. Stay positive and turn stress into motivation to build a more sustainable business model.

This shall empower you to overcome all difficulties. This year, you are prone to illnesses and accidents. Take care of your health and safety. Be careful on the road, and refrain from breaking the law.

Career (80%, 4 stars): As your career flourishes, busy schedules and fierce competition will cause you more stress. That should not stop you from excelling and standing out from the crowd. You will also receive timely help to overcome difficulties. Maintain a good working attitude and you will be rewarded with promotion and salary increment. The self-employed and business people will make good progress this year. Dress appropriately and always look your best.
