The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
CHINESE ASTROLOGY BA ZI In the Chinese Ba Zi astrology, the Chinese Zodiac sign of your birth year is not particularly important. This is because your Ba Zi chart (Chinese horoscope) doesn’t consist of one pillar, but four. Since each Pillar (Year, Month, Day, and Hour) contains one Zodiac sign, your life is not affected by only one sign, but at least four! While each (of the four) Zodiac signs stand for certain aspects of your life, the most important one is the sign of your day of birth – it shows who you really are (together with your Self). In order to find the Zodiac sign of the day you were born, as well as the other three signs, you have to calculate your Chinese astrology horoscope. Here is the link to the free online calculator: www.bit.ly/BaZiCalculate
FOUR ZODIAC SIGNS OF YOUR LIFE The table below shows the sample Chinese astrology chart: HOUR PILLAR
DAY PILLAR
MONTH PILLAR
YEAR PILLAR
GOAT
RABBIT
HORSE
DRAGON
INNER WISHES
PERSONALITY
CAREER
WIDER SURROUNDINGS
As you can see, each Pillar of the Chinese horoscope stands for very specific areas of one’s life. For example, the Chinese Zodiac sign of your Day of birth is who you really are; it defines your constitution and character, and it talks about your health and love life. The sign in the Year Pillar shows the wider surroundings, while the Month 6

sign refers to your immediate surroundings and career. When it comes to the Hour of birth, it is all about the inner wishes and personal creations (including children). DAY PILLAR TIGER, RABBIT, DRAGON, SNAKE, HORSE, GOAT, MONKEY, ROOSTER, DOG, PIG, RAT CONSTITUTION HEALTH CHARACTER RELATIONSHIP
Whatever Zodiac sign is in your Day Pillar directly affects your constitution, character, health, and love life.
THE LUCK CHANGES EVERY YEAR Each year is ruled by one of the twelve Chinese Zodiac signs, which alternate in their rulership, following the 12-year cycle (because there are 12 Zodiac signs of the Chinese Zodiac). The Zodiac sign which precedes over a certain year affects all four Zodiac signs of your natal chart. Depending on the relationship of the annual sign and the four signs of your Chinese astrological chart, certain years will act on various aspects of your life in different ways (friendly, neutral, or hostile). Moreover, since the Stars in each of the twelve Zodiac signs change annually, this also determines the kind of luck each sign will have during the course of certain year (good or bad; average or great). In such a way - minding that there are four Zodiac signs in your chart - while your personal life could be great at certain year (due to the influence of the good Stars on your Day Pillar), you may simultaneously find yourself dealing with career challenges (because the bad Stars might be concentrated on your career - the Month Pillar)! 7

METAL RAT YEAR OF 2020 When it comes to 2020, it’s a Metal Rat Year. Since Rat has a good relationship with Monkey, Ox, and Dragon, these three signs will be blessed with good relationship luck. If you have one of these signs anywhere in your Ba Zi chart, then you should expect improvements in relationships in general. The aspect of your life will be most influenced depends on the pillar(s) these signs occupy. Regarding the signs that don’t get along well with Rat, their relationship luck will be bumpier. The first to mention is Horse because this sign clashes with Rat (equals to opposition in Western astrology). Thus, if you were born under the Day of Horse, 2020 will bring you more relationship challenges. Knowing that some kind of a change is inevitable, you can either play it cool and wait for issues to emerge - or you can start planning how to initiate the changes in order to maintain control. In professional consultations, we always advise our clients to not only embrace the necessity of change, but also to plan and initiate the changes accordingly. One example of such changes is accepting a position which requires a lot travel…

TIGER If you have Tiger anywhere in your chart, you will be very busy in 2020 - both with important and less important matters. Although your luck might not be at its highest in 2020, it will be reasonably good and may be further improved with activity. For Tigers, the key to getting the most out of the Rat Year, and increasing opportunities in general, is to be proactive and to travel more (this will work especially well for the career of those born in the Tiger Month: February 4 – March 5). Relationship-wise, the Rat Year brings average love luck to all Tigers – except those who are already in a long-distance relationship. In addition, the love luck of Earth Tiger males will be pretty good and they might find 2020 to be a very important year for their love life (finding a soulmate, marriage). In terms of wealth, Tigers’ opportunities will come through travel, the Internet, and dealing with other countries. Most importantly, Tigers should travel more and/or find ways to connect with different (foreign) markets in order to succeed in 2020. In terms of Feng Shui, they can benefit from placing their desk in the Northeast or Northwest locations of their office.
11
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
When it comes to health, Tigers should pay more attention to their immunity in 2020. In such a way, they should consider using beta glucans, echinacea, medicinal mushrooms, etc., to improve the immune response. BORN IN TIGER YEAR:
You’ll have a lot of interactions with people from different backgrounds and cultures.
BORN IN TIGER MONTH:
Travel, Internet business, and dealing with overseas countries might improve your finances.
BORN IN TIGER DAY:
Favorable for long-distance love. Health-wise: possible immunity issues.
BORN IN TIGER HOUR:
Children will be very active this year.

RABBIT Rabbits’ overall luck in 2020 tends to be pretty good, but it will also show occasional setbacks due to the influence of the Punishment with the Rat. Regarding Rabbits’ relationship luck, there’s a Star in their sign which will make them attractive and bring in more relationship opportunities. However, since Rat Year also brings Punishment to Rabbits, they might be prone towards making some wrong decisions when it comes to dating and relationships (especially those born in Rabbit Day). Also, as they might become more interested in sexual experiments, they are advised to mind personal safety and protection. When it comes to their career and wealth, these are under influence of one strong and auspicious Star which will improve their financial luck. Thus, wealth opportunities are on the way, especially for those with Rabbit under the Month Pillar (also known as “Career Palace”). The nature of this wealth Star in the Rabbit sign is such that it will especially benefit entrepreneurs and those with side-businesses. Of all Rabbits, women (together with Earth Rabbits) will do better in 2020, as will those in predominantly female oriented industries (fashion, female products, etc.).
13
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
Another special Star in the Rabbit sign is also auspicious for wealth and can bring with it strong investment opportunities and a greater ability to control finances. Due to the influence of these auspicious Stars, Rabbits might also come up with some great new ideas which could increase their wealth. Health-wise, Rabbits should pay attention to their reproductive organs, because they can easily get infections. Also, they should try to calm the anxiety with food (or anything which will hurt their health). Establishing and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is the best way for them to grow strong and happy in 2020.
BORN IN RABBIT YEAR:
Others might show interest in your abilities and cooperating with you.
BORN IN RABBIT MONTH:
Business opportunities come through entrepreneurship and female related industries.
BORN IN RABBIT DAY:
The atmosphere is auspicious for dating and establishing a lasting relationship.
BORN IN RABBIT HOUR:
The side-business may bring in some extra cash.

DRAGON Dragon has a special relationship with Rat which is typically referred to as Three Stages. This relationship is important because it might open many doors for Dragons in 2020. It can also make them more appealing, improving their people skills, and enabling them to expand their social circles. When it comes to those with Dragon in the Day Pillar (especially Earth Dragon males), they will be blessed with great relationship luck. For singles, 2020 is the right year to go out and date because they could more easily find the right match. For engaged Dragons, the Rat Year may present some temptations and hence they should be careful not to jeopardize the existing relationship. Regarding Dragons’ careers, since they will be more creative than ever, they should not hesitate to show their talents. In terms of business, Dragons should focus on connecting with others, because this is their thing in 2020. Those who were born in Dragon Month (April 5 - May 5) might expect advancements in their career, widening of networking circles, and financial gains. Since the Rat Year
15
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
will benefit Dragons’ fame and popularity, they should use this to network and cooperate with others. The best financial prospects for 2020 will involve Earth Dragons and/or other Dragons in art, design, and networking. Health-wise, the Rat Year brings average health to Dragons.
BORN IN DRAGON YEAR:
People will be foreboding and very helpful this year.
BORN IN DRAGON MONTH:
You can increase your income through networking and art.
BORN IN DRAGON DAY:
Auspicious for relationships in general; opportunities for singles.
BORN IN DRAGON HOUR:
Hire talented artists and designers, because they will aid your business.

SNAKE 2020 brings average luck for Snakes, meaning that they will have to put in more effort in order to accomplish their goals. Minding their average luck, Snakes should focus on what’s open to them, i.e. improving/completing education, mastering a new area of knowledge or set of skills, etc., because this is how they can make everything easier for themselves. Regarding relationships, Snakes’ love luck is average – except for Wood and Fire Snake females and Earth Snake males, whose love luck will be very good. Also, since 2020 might bring up opportunities for a secret relationship, Snakes should carefully consider every aspect of such a venture before engaging in it. Since Rat Year is the time when it becomes easy to break what’s already there, they should be more attentive and understanding towards the needs of their partner, friends, and family members. Snakes should be particularly careful when it comes to investments and expenses in general, because their spending might get them into trouble. The rule of thumb for 2020 when it comes to Snakes’ careers and wealth is: think twice before you make a decision that requires spending. Also, they should be careful when it comes to “get-rich-quick” schemes, because they are under the influence of Robbery Sha, which typically brings about losses. Hence, gambling is not
17
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
a good option for Snakes in the Rat Year and they should keep their spending in control instead. Moreover, those with Snake anywhere in their chart should pay attention to the security of their home, keeping an eye on their personal belongings at all times due to increased risk of theft and robbery. Snake’s health is average in 2020, and when it comes to Feng Shui and health, Snakes with sensitive health should avoid sleeping and/or spending time in North 2, Southeast 3, Southwest 1, or South 2.
BORN IN SNAKE YEAR:
Try not to lend or borrow money and do not get involved in others’ money schemes.
BORN IN SNAKE MONTH:
Do not aim too high in your career/business. Also, spend wisely or you may regret it.
BORN IN SNAKE DAY:
Relationship luck is great for Wood and Fire Snake females and Earth Snake males.
BORN IN SNAKE HOUR:
Keep an eye on your personal belongings.
18
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
HORSE 2020 will be a challenging year for those with Horse anywhere in their chart, since they are in opposition with the year. In Chinese astrology, this relationship is known as the Clash and it announces changes which are typically accompanied with tension, stress, and possible conflicts. Moreover, if you have Horse in your Day Pillar, your passion, impatience, and impulsiveness can cause you only problems. This Clash will also affect Horses’ love lives and, hence, Horses whose relationships are not on a good footing might face relationship issues, while other Horses could engage in a new and very intense liaison. In addition, the Rat Year may bring career challenges to Horses, who may be confused about their goals and the ways to achieve them. They might keep trying to obtain too many objectives, wasting both their energy and time, and failing to deliver actual results. Thus, Horses (especially those born in Horse Month: June 5 - July 6) should lie low in the Rat Year unless they have Monkey, Dragon, or Goat somewhere in their Chinese astrological chart. Luckily, the presence of one special Star in their sign indicates that Horses will be able to find solutions to their problems. Since there’s another Star in their sign which denotes losses, Horses should be very careful when it comes to investments and spending in general, as they should count on unexpected
19
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
costs. Furthermore, if they don’t pay attention to what’s happening around them, they can easily lose some of their fortune (they should also avoid borrowing or lending money). They are advised to employ Feng Shui in 2020 to prevent or minimize possible losses and improve their luck. In such a way, they should avoid sleeping/working in East and should aim for Northeast or Northwest locations instead. When it comes to health (Horse in the Day Pillar), Rat Year is the right time for Horses to work out or do yoga more intensely in order to overcome stress. They should also pay attention to their blood pressure – especially if they are overweight and prone to cardiac issues. Since those born in the days of Horse will be more tense and confused, they should be very careful when in motion – but especially while in traffic.
BORN IN HORSE YEAR:
People in your surroundings may appear to be more irritating than before.
BORN IN HORSE MONTH:
Changes in career and business are very likely in 2020; do not aim too high and avoid unnecessary risks.
BORN IN HORSE DAY:
Unstable love luck and possible changes in relationship.
BORN IN HORSE HOUR:
Employees might be distracted this year.

GOAT Those with Goat in their Day Pillar will do pretty well in the Rat Year as a result of the presence of certain auspicious Stars in their sign. However, since they also have a Harm relationship with the Rat, there is the probability that they will experience a few interpersonal problems in 2020 which can be hard on them. Although their relationship luck (Goat in the Day Pillar) tends to be good, 2020 is still the year when Goats have to learn important lessons about trust and boundaries. Accordingly, relationships might take away a lot of their energy and time, making them uneasy and bringing about disappointments. Also, Goats should be mindful of the effects of their own actions and speech because they can easily hurt others. Among all the good Stars in this sign, one is particularly important - the Nobleman Star. This Star will help Goats to find the right information, honest teachers, and generous mentors. This Star will especially benefit female Goats, improving their social status and bringing more favorable outcomes in general. Another auspicious Star in their sign will help them deal with problems and find adequate solutions.
21
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
Business-wise, it is important that Goats remain careful when it comes to making and especially signing agreements (particularly those with Goat in the Month Pillar). They should put everything in writing, because otherwise people can take advantage of their talents and work (this is especially relevant when it comes to business). The good news is that Goats will be blessed with good wealth luck (especially blind luck like winning bingo, lottery, etc.), but unless they remain very alert and careful in the Rat Year, they might also experience losses (mostly due to own misplaced trust). Regarding health, Goats are prone towards injuries in 2020, so they should be careful in traffic and when handling tools and utensils.
BORN IN GOAT YEAR:
You may find some good advisers and generous benefactors in 2020.
BORN IN GOAT MONTH:
Your wealth luck is good, and you might get well compensated for own consultancy services.
BORN IN GOAT DAY:
This is not a great time to start a new relationship, because of possible disappointments.
BORN IN GOAT HOUR:
Those working for you might be very helpful this year - but they can also bring harm.

MONKEY The Monkey has a special relationship with the Rat, commonly referred to as Three Stages. This relationship will work well for Monkeys’ social lives in 2020. If you have Monkey anywhere in your chart, you will be blessed with great relationship luck in 2020. When it comes to love, single Monkeys will have a lot of opportunities to date and find a partner, while engaged ones should go out more with their partner and have fun together. However, since Monkeys will be popular and will have a lot of opportunities for romance, those in a serious relationship should keep in mind that possible affairs usually have consequences. Career and business-wise, the Rat Year will especially benefit Monkeys’ fame. As they will be appealing and popular, they will also have more opportunities to socialize, network, and cooperate with others. Accordingly, the key for their success in 2020 is to focus on presentation, sales, networking, marketing, PR, branding their own name and/or products, advisory, consul-
23
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
tancy, and establishing new contacts. When it comes to Feng Shui, they should stay away from East this year (to avoid problems, do not sleep or work in East). To promote good luck, they should spend time (sleep, work, read, watch TV, etc.) in Northeast or Northwest locations of their home. Health-wise, Monkeys will be more prone to injuries, and this is why they should stay away from fights and/or participating in protests.
BORN IN MONKEY YEAR:
You’ll be popular in 2020 and people would like to have you at their social gatherings.
BORN IN MONKEY MONTH:
The best way to promote your career and business is to network and do public appearances.
BORN IN MONKEY DAY:
Good relationship luck awaits all Monkeys in 2020, but especially Fire Monkey females.
BORN IN MONKEY HOUR:
Employees can aid your business with their networking skills.
24

ROOSTER Although Roosters don’t have a great relationship with the Rat, certain auspicious Stars in their sign will improve their luck in 2020. When it comes to relationships, Rooster hosts a Peach Blossom Star in 2020, which is excellent for all kinds of relationships. It will make Roosters more charming and attractive, which will in turn provide them with more opportunities to date, establish a serious relationship, or get married (male Earth Roosters and female Fire Roosters will have especially good love luck). More good news is that another Star, Fu De, will also work well on Roosters’ behalf, making them feel better about themselves and enabling them to find personal fulfilment. However, since Rosters’ relationship luck is also under the influence of Destruction, they could easily say or do something completely wrong which might negatively affect their relationship. Besides, they will often meet some petty people who are ready to criticize, oppose, and create issues out of insignificant matters, which will also make Roosters uneasy.
25
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
Career and business wise, since the Peach Blossom Star makes people more likeable, those with Rooster in their Month Pillar should expect more social interactions and a supportive atmosphere for networking. In 2020, Roosters can especially benefit from presentations, lectures, PR, and social networks. Health-wise, due to the effect of Destruction (which particularly affects those with Rooster in the Day Pillar), Roosters might find themselves fighting with some bad habits in 2020 (alcohol, recreational drugs, etc.). They could also gain weight more easily.
BORN IN ROOSTER YEAR:
People will like you, but it’s best to be realistic when it comes to their offers.
BORN IN ROOSTER MONTH:
The Rat Year is a good time to brand your name, products, or services.
BORN IN ROOSTER DAY:
Although relationship luck is good for all Roosters, it’s better for Wood Rooster females.
BORN IN ROOSTER HOUR:
Do not exaggerate with food, because it’s easy to gain weight this year.

DOG Although Dogs’ overall luck in 2020 tends to be average, they will still do great in certain areas. For example, since their relationship luck will be under the influence of some auspicious Stars, Dogs will have opportunities to date and enjoy love and relationships – especially if they have Rabbit, Ox, or Goat somewhere in their Chinese astrological chart. Among all five Dogs, the Earth Dog males stand out for having very good love luck in 2020, and some of them might even consider tying the knot. However, Dogs might also face a few relationship issues in the Rat Year, mostly due to their own offensive behaviors which can alienate others and create unnecessary hostility. In addition, since there is also a Loneliness Star in their sign, Dogs might have issues with intimacy and sharing with others. The best they can do for both themselves and the people they love is to reserve some ‘me’ time for themselves. However, it is also recommended to take part in enjoyable activities and remain attentive towards their needs of their partner and family members.
27
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
When it comes to their career and business, Dogs will have to put in greater effort in order to gain tangible results. Among all Dogs, those who have Rabbit, Monkey, or Tiger in their chart will do much better than others. Since Dog’s personality and special talents could bring them popularity, Dogs in the media business might also perform very well in 2020 (better than other Dogs). Health wise, Dogs should stay away from dangerous sports in 2020 because of the heightened risk of injuries. They should also do their best to establish and maintain a healthy lifestyle, which includes spending some time in nature.
BORN IN DOG YEAR:
You may feel alienated and not very interested in your surroundings or opportunities to socialize.
BORN IN DOG MONTH:
Minding their average wealth luck, Dogs will have to work hard.
BORN IN DOG DAY:
Of all Dogs, the best of relationship luck will be enjoyed by Wood Dog females.
BORN IN DOG HOUR:
Possible communication issues with employees.

PIG Although their luck tends to be average in the Rat Year, the Intelligence Star in the Pig sign will aid their versatility and resourcefulness. In such a way, Pigs (especially those born under Pig Day) will be more able to find creative solutions and make use of most conditions and situations. Since the Intelligence Star will help those born in the Pig Days or Months in everything related to learning, studying, teaching, researching, writing, etc., they should go for academics in 2020. When it comes to relationships, Pig’s luck in this area tends to be rather average in 2020. However, female Wood Pigs and male Earth Pigs will have more opportunities to meet their soul mate or to find happiness and fulfilment in the existing relationship. Regarding their career and wealth, Pigs will be more able to find solutions to business problems, as they will manage different situations with more confidence. Of all Pigs, the best wealth
29
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
opportunities are reserved for Earth Pigs, while Pigs in education, science, and research will have more opportunities to grow and advance in their field. What really needs Pig’s attention in 2020 is their health, which will be very sensitive. In particular, Day Pillar Pigs should be very careful health-wise, as the Illness Star in their sign could make them prone towards various health issues, including colds and the flu. When it comes to Feng Shui, they should definitely avoid sleeping in South or East in 2020 in order to minimize and/or avoid possible health issues.
BORN IN PIG YEAR:
Pay attention to the health of your elderly.
BORN IN PIG MONTH:
This is the year to come up with fresh ideas, which will create new career/business opportunities.
BORN IN PIG DAY:
Female Wood Pigs and male Earth Pigs will enjoy good love luck; for other Pigs, relationship luck is average.
BORN IN PIG HOUR:
Pay attention to your children’s health.

RAT In Chinese astrology, if you’re a Rat and Rat Year comes, it’s not your year. Contrary to common belief, it’s a year when one should count on challenges and setbacks. Holding the title of ‘’wrath of the Tai Sui’’, Rats can occasionally find themselves caught in misunderstandings and/ or disputes in 2020, mostly because of their strong character and lack of flexibility. When it comes to their relationship luck, it’s not great in 2020. This is why Rats will have to invest more time and energy in their relationship to keep the partner happy. When it comes to singles, Fire Rats will have better prospects than other Rats. As such, some of them could easily get engaged or married. Career and business wise, the good news is that the Rat hosts two auspicious Stars: one in charge of financial luck, and the other one which positively affects one’s authority and status. Accordingly, those who have Rat anywhere in their chart (but particularly Month: December 5 - January 5) will still be doing well in 2020 and can count on support from friends in high places. If they play their cards well in 2020, Rats will not only be able to finance their debts, but also to make profits and/or invest wisely (long-term). The auspicious Stars in the Rat sign will also benefit these individuals’ strategic abilities, helping them to gain respect, improve their reputation, and increase authority and power. This Star
31
The Complete Chinese Astrology Guide for 2020 https://altheachineseastrology.com
will positively affect their leadership abilities, just as it will increase their chances to get promoted. However, as the overall development for Rats in 2020 tends to be unstable, they’ll have to adapt quickly and change their course of action appropriately. In such a way, their overall success depends on their capability to create a great strategy and be ready to implement a plan B (or C) at short notice. Unless they have Ox, Dragon, or Monkey in their Ba Zi chart, Rats should not aim too high but stick to everything that used to work well for them before. Health-wise, since Rats might be more prone towards stress-related issues, they should find ways to relax more. For example, some great ways they can help themselves are by getting the occasional massage, swimming regularly, or going on a weekend getaway every now and then. When it comes to Metal Rats, they’ll have some special lessons to learn this year...
BORN IN RAT YEAR:
People in their surroundings might not be very friendly, especially authorities.
BORN IN RAT MONTH:
Be alert and ready to alter business strategy in order to stay in the game.
BORN IN RAT DAY:
You’ll have to put a lot of effort into your relationship just to keep your partner happy.
BORN IN RAT HOUR:
Possible cash flow problems and conflicts with employees.

OX Since Ox is the sign which combines well with the Rat, this is generally considered as a good omen for those born under the days of the Ox. However, although relationship luck is good for single Oxen, the overall development for those in lasting relationships depends on the quality of their relationship. If issues are already present, and if the “Partner Star” in their chart shows clash or harm, they might go through a break-up in 2020. On the other hand, many Oxen will also go through happy times in their relationship, and some might even consider marriage in the Rat Year. For male Earth Oxen and female Wood Oxen, 2020 is ideal for establishing a lasting relationship and/or tying the knot. When it comes to career and work, those with Ox in their chart will be blessed with great networking luck.

Ox also hosts the other strong auspicious Star in 2020, Tai Yang, which is a great aid for career and business. This Star promotes one’s wealth luck and works particularly well for individuals with Ox in the Month Pillar, but especially for those in construction and property development business. However, although Oxen will be blessed with attention and help from the right people (especially male Oxen), they will more often be the ones who give, mentor, advise, guide, and support others. When it comes to their wealth luck, it will be especially good for Earth Oxen and Oxen who have Monkey, Dragon, or Tiger in their chart. Health-wise, Oxen health in the Rat year tends to be good.

Your career and business prospects are very good, and you should chase your big goals.
