Monkey in 2009 - You’ll exude optimism and confidence. For 1932, be content with family life. Don’t be lured by an unbelievable business opportunity. For 1944, you’re relatively apt to accrue wealth, but watch your mouth. For 1956, you’re flush with success and many good opportunities. If you feel lured, retreat. For 1968, be successful and innovative. Acquire property. For 1980, avoid being swollen with pride or results will be contrary to your wishes. For 1992, there’s too much fun but don’t let that delay your studies. High spirits are the strengths of all monkeys. Meek monkeys will be very brave and go beyond their abilities.

1/5–2/4: There are many good opportunities before you, but listen to different opinions.  Heed sincere advice and sharp criticism, no matter how unpleasant, or you’ll be easily tricked.  Be practical in your behavior and style. 

2/4-3/5: Seek the far and wide when it is within reach.  If you aim too high, it will hinder your undertaking. 

3/5-4/4: Don’t hesitate because your heart tells you to do so.  Love between man and woman may delay proper business. 

4/4-5/5: Your mind changes too much with emotional rises and falls.  Mind your affairs and speak easily.  Focus on study and amusement. 

5/5-6/5:  This moon brings you good luck and many joyful events.  Love is proud.  Seize the opportunity.  Quick endings are victorious. 

6/5 –7/7: Show your resolve.  Handle your affairs guided by your principles, not the scarcity of calmness.  Keep working to improve yourself. 

7/7– 8/7: Don’t let your heart get in the way of business.  Indulging your feelings will cause delays at work.  This affects being able to differentiate between true and false affection too.
