Monkey Chinese Horoscope

It was a Full Moon late last week that brought you to the halfway point in the month of the Pig, with this second half more about tying up loose ends, setting your priorities and focusing on the things that matter. The month of the Pig and its focus on home, family and on those rituals and routines that can help you feel grounded and can bring a sense of belonging doesn't end until the end of next week, but with the month of the Rat starting on 1st December with a need to be ready to draw a new line in the sand. This is when, in the final month of 2024 the focus is set to shift massively to the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence.
Year of the Dragon
Feb 10, 2024 - Jan 28, 2025
For the Monkey, this is the year that you have been waiting for, with life now able to be viewed in technicolour rather than in black and white. For you, the lights will come on the moment the Year of the Dragon begins on 10th February and they will stay on until it ends on 29th January 2025. What makes the Year of the Dragon such a special year for you is not just that this puts the focus on the more adventurous side of life’s fence, where the focus is on adventure, travel, learning and discovery. This is partly because the Dragon gives you the confidence to embrace life, making it hard to watch from the sidelines, but this is also a year for exploring the things that you are passionate about and for experiencing life firsthand.

What also makes this such a good year for you is that the Monkey and Dragon are part of the same triad of affinity, with a similar DNA. As the Monkey and Dragon are the best of friends, life will flow more smoothly, and this will genuinely be a lucky year and especially when you put in the effort instead of waiting for things to happen. This means that the month of the Dragon, which will run from 9th April to 8th May and the month of the Monkey, which this year will run from 4th August to 3rd October will be especially good months. As will be the playful and creative month of the Rat, also part of your triad of affinity, which will run from 1st December to 31st December.

Throughout the Year of the Dragon, its bold and daring influence can be felt, but this will also have an influence on the different lunar months. For example, in months like the competitive and professionally charged month of the Snake, from 8th May to 7th June, you might be more focused on your professional life, but the Dragon’s influence could see you looking further afield or ready to embark on a new professional adventure. In all aspects of your life, this will make it harder to stay in a rut or to get stuck in the weeds, with the Dragon helping you to focus on the big picture and on new and different ways of doing things. Meanwhile, a month like the month of the Goat, from 6th July to 4th August could see the Dragon’s influence call for change in many aspects of your life.

Monkeys are very intelligent and find it easy to influence others. Despite this, you will sometimes get confused and discouraged. But, conversely, you will always be enthusiastic and really go for whatever you want to achieve.

A Monkey often finds it difficult to commit to one person for they are popular with everyone.
