Wondering what the year of the rat has in store for you and your family in terms of career, their education, health and relationships? Here’s our guide for each zodiac in 2020.
1. Rat

Career & Finances
Even though a zodiac’s year is usually the most unlucky, 2020 will still proceed well for the Rat. Your efforts at work will be rewarded and seen, while your health and relationships may require more work. Those born in the first half of the year will receive exclusive bonuses. However, for those born in the later months, they’ll need to push a little harder to achieve their goals.
Tying in with this is finances, which will be booming this year. In fact your income might even double! Hence, it’s vital to take care of your finances - save and invest your money rather than recklessly spending it. Definitely clear any outstanding debts, purchase only the essentials and reduce impulse spending. Rather than spending your money on luxury items and vacations, opt to treat your family or those close to you to experiences.
For Your Kids
While your children should work hard and focus on their studies to achieve their goals, avoid overly stressing them as they might fall sick. Thus, make sure they get enough sleep, proper nutrition and supplement with vitamins. As Rats (not just children) are particularly susceptible to colds and fatigue this year, make sure your kids get immediate medical treatment to speed up their recovery. While having a healthy exercise regime is good for all ages, avoid injuries to the lower part of the body, and don’t over-exert.
Your Spouse and You
Make sure to quickly resolve arguments, whether big or small, spend quality time with your spouse and keep yourself grounded in love. Take heed of your family members’ matters and try to help them handle tricky situations that may arise. Of course, some family members will be more resistant than others due to their pride.
Lucky Months: March, September, and November.
Unlucky Months: April, July, and October.
2. Ox

Career, Side Hustles and Finance
Due to the compatibility of the Rat and the Ox, this year will be a good one for your career, education and health. Hence, you can expect promotions and compliments, and your best character traits - honesty and perseverance - will be visible to all. Additionally, this year is great to start something new, for instance, becoming a mumpreneur.
However, do be prudent this year, and clear any debts first. Spend the first third of the year organising your finances and it should run smoothly for the rest of the year. Pay for the essentials and save the rest, and avoid getting lured in by sales.
Romance and Relationships
However, your relationships will need a little more nurturing this year. For instance, a male colleague may cause some misfortune, so you should be wise in choosing your friends and work buddies. This year especially, oxen will need to work on their communication. Examples of this include listening to your partner, being invested in their daily experiences while understanding what they’re trying to tell you.
Do note, however, that there may be some parties who are trying to divert your partner away from you. Definitely fend off any advances and put a stop to them immediately.
Your Kids and Health
For your kids, they’ll need dedication and hard work to be unstoppable this year. Of course this means devoting time to their studies, joining study groups where applicable, going to the library for additional material, and attending their classes. Mums who want to enrich themselves this year might consider a speech class to elevate your rhetoric.
While you and your kids should be sturdy enough to endure minor ailments and work (and study) related stresses, make sure to get regular checkups to ensure a clean bill of health. Although a mother’s work never ends, ensure you and your family are eating at regular times, or having healthy snacks at hand. Of course, you’d also need to cultivate a healthy and active lifestyle.
Lucky Months: February, April, July, August, and November.
Unlucky Months: January, March, June, and September.
3. Tiger

Your Career & Finances
This year will be awesome for your career, and you can expect promotions, raises and all sorts of rewards. However, don’t take the opportunity to slack off, but try your best to climb up the ladder.
Be confident in the office, and your coworkers and superiors will think highly of you. Be sure to maintain good relationships in the workplace, especially since a colleague might recommend you for a promotion.
The exception to this are careers in media, telecommunication, investment markets or information technologies’ industries, and is likely to be turbulent for some time, so do consider other sources of income.
Your Kids at School
For your kids, encourage them to focus on communication, as they’ll have to rely on their classmates for support in classes and social events, so they should take some time to build some friendships. Additionally, travel will be good for Tigers this year. Older children might choose to go for a semester abroad, or you can just take a fun family trip to meet new people and immerse your children in a new culture.
Your Health
It’s essential to focus on your well-being this year, as there will be stressors. Make sure to cure the symptoms of any illnesses as they appear, thereby reducing your recovery period. Of course, the right diet is essential - avoid too many sweets and fatty foods and load up instead on fruits, vegetables and proteins. As this year will be a busy one, make sure to take regular breaks to destress and relax.
Your Marriage
Unsurprisingly, communication is crucial for a happy marriage. Try to showcase your best personality traits to your partner, and work on improving loyalty and trust in your marriage. Resolve any issues with your spouse, and even consider therapy if necessary. You’ll need to work hard to get to a place of love and understanding.

4. Rabbit

Your Career & Finances
Because rabbits are quiet individuals, they’ll need to communicate more to succeed in the workplace. Definitely maintain cordial relationships in office matters. Aside from social interactions, put in hard work to bring good fortune, promotions and financial advances. Additionally you’ll get help from a female friend, but a supposed friend may stab you in the back.
Don’t expect a huge bonus this year, and don’t let greed be your downfall. Know when to step down and let others take over. For mumpreneurs, the business should survive for a longer while if they can adapt to market changes and demands.
Your Kids
Their attention to detail and quiet focus will help them advance. Make sure they follow the guidelines of their assignment to the letter, and maintain concentration. Of course, building strong relationships during their school years is essential for their sanity.
Your Health
Focus on your mental health this year, by finding something that centers you. Take a class for your favourite hobbies, join a support group or visit your doctor for help. Instead of staring at your computer all day, spend some time outside in the fresh air - take a walk, ride a bike or head to the ocean.
Your Marriage
Married couples should watch out for infidelity and jealousy, and avoid flirtatious individuals and their advances. Focus on your loved one.
Lucky Months: January, May, June, October, and December.

Your Career & Finance
Dragons will be very successful this year, with a possible promotion just around the corner. Additionally, you can act on any new ideas for your career, while a small business plan can turn into a profitable corporation. Even though you’re definitely able to achieve goals on your own, teamwork is essential, so do work closely with your superiors and colleagues. Do tone down your laser intensity as others might be repelled by it.
Don’t be worried by your recent expenditure; you should be able to recover some of it within a short period. Of course, do curb unnecessary expenses. Mumpreneurs will be able to finalise some deals that were previously in the pipeline, and look out for more prosperous opportunities throughout the year.
Your Kids
Your kids’ education will be a breeze, if they can focus throughout the year. Just beware of their headstrong attitude and help them tone this down during their conversations with friends or when speaking up in class. Help them practice being good listeners and they might lead others in their studies or in a debate, for older children.
Your Health
While blessed with excellent mental and physical health, meaning they can push their limits far more than the average individual, they are still susceptible to colds and minor illnesses. Like everyone else, do address the symptoms when they first occur with preemptive medicine. Be mindful of circulatory and digestive issues during the year. Pace yourself to avoid burning out.
Your Marriage
Married dragons, put in the time and effort and don’t let stubborness erode your overall relationship satisfaction. Proceed cautiously through heavy conversations, and don’t be afraid to take some space to regroup your thoughts and then start over.
