In preparation for the year ahead, here are his nuggets of wisdom for the 12 zodiacs.
Tiger
2022 will be a very busy year for tigers. Many will have their eyes on you, so stepping up and doing what you must should come naturally. However, this can in turn set you back in your love life or personal relationships with others. Learning the art of time management will certainly help you throughout the year. Financially, you could have had better years, so you may want to think twice before making any big money decisions. Practice caution when investing or spending. Besides wealth, also be on the lookout for both your physical and mental health. The amount of work you’re going to be doing, may cause some stress, so at least try to take it one day at a time.
Rabbit
For rabbits, this new year could be one filled with love and warmth if you allow it. Spending time with loved ones-family and friends, would bring you immense joy, light and security. An added bonus for those of you who are single, your peach blossom star is stronger than ever. 2022 is your year to make moves. With regards to wealth, opportunities will be aplenty. That being said, seize the day when the day arrives. Nevertheless, finding a mentor or nobleman to help you along the way, could also work in your favour. Career aside though, pay attention to your mental health for your chances of feeling isolated and alone could also be higher.
Dragon

Following your gut is always advised, but that doesn’t mean being too hasty about important decisions. When in doubt, reflect first. In brighter news, you will be receiving some good financial gains this year, so with regards to wealth, everything will be turning up green. However, you may want to take extra precautions about the things you consume, for an improper diet can bring back unwanted diseases for this animal sign.
Snake
Unfortunately, stressed-out snakes may be the key term for this animal sign come 2022. Thus, it is vital that you do whatever you can to remain calm and collected. Avoid yourself from being mentally-strained. Personal relationships, whether filial or romantic also do not appear too well in 2022 for the group of you. Hold off of on any major investment/money deals and focus your energies on maybe picking up a hobby, or even just looking after yourself physically, emotionally as well as mentally this year.
Horse
Horses will do splendidly this year in terms of wealth and career. Due to this, expanding businesses, making investments or generally anything money-wise will be the right move to make in 2022. Your busy schedule will keep you on your feet, however, that could also come in the way of your personal relationships, for the lack of time spent with others. Horses may go through hormonal changes throughout the year, and this can in turn mess with them both physically and emotionally. Keep in mind that these changes are merely temporary.
Goat
Overall, the year 2022 happens to be a great year for fellow goats. Whether it is in wealth, relationships or health, everything appears to be positive throughout the year. However, this isn’t to say there isn’t a couple of trials and tribulations here and there. For instance, grab business opportunities which come, but do not overspend your money. Good time spent with family and friends, but do not forget to care for the elderly of your home. An ability to enjoy good health, but be sure to practice all habits in moderation.
Monkey

However, the good news is that, this animal sign has always been one who knows their way around solving problems, regardless of its nature. So, whether it’s wealth, relationships or health, persevering and coming out on top can be assured. Expect money losses this year, but also be smart about the ways in which you can best make money. In terms of love, it could be a year of betrayal, watch your back, and ponder before you decide to react.
Rooster

Many would come in search for the group of you this year for guidance. Be ever ready to give, but also be sure to accept help when you need it. Having someone assist you with financial aspects will not put you at a disadvantage. Your relationships this year though, may not be as lucky as your wealth and career. You could feel like things between you and a significant other getting monotonous, so maybe find exciting ways to change that tune. Besides that, also watch what you eat/drink.

For dogs, it is important to take 2022 as a year to understand yourself, your emotions, thoughts and actions.
