Monkey: Baby Calunod
On January 22nd, 2004, the Year of the Monkey will begin. People born under the sign of the monkey are often thought to be very playful people who have a quick mind and a great sense of humor. Never ones to take life too seriously, Monkeys may be the ones who teach us to lighten up, or stop adding unnecessary stress to our lives. This 2004 Year of the Monkey is likely to be a busy year, filled with the discovery of new technologies and scientific breakthroughs, as well as a focus on discussion and debate in social settings. However, it's up to us to make downtime for our own special pursuits.

Since the element ruling this year is strong, rooted Wood, we may find ourselves being a bit more practical than usual, or doing more planning for the future. It may also be a year of meeting new friends, or bringing groups of people together not just for fun, but to mobilize for a cause.

 

Rabbit: Chelsea
Rabbits are often quiet by nature, and like to get their work done behind the scenes. They prefer to lead ordered and efficient lives. Their sensitivity and peaceful natures can bring profound but gradual change. In 2004, the energy of the Monkey could annoy Rabbits, who like to be comfortable above all else. But if they are flexible, they can learn important lessons by questioning and looking within.

Tiger: Miles
These are powerful, dynamic people, and often natural leaders. Their dynamic personalities can be overwhelming to people born under quieter signs, but they can make a dramatic entrance, or teach us a thing or two about public speaking. In 2004, though, Tigers may find their naturally fiery energy may be tested by the wily ways of the Monkey, but could find themselves laughing despite everything and giving in to Monkey's playful ways.
