属龙的人今年要做好心理准备，以应对未来的坎坷；属猴的人今年工作顺利；属鼠的人今年要远离高风险运动；属兔的人今年运势不佳。

How will your Chinese zodiac animal fare in 2024? Every lunar year there are a handful that offend the guardian deities, or tai sui, and traditional belief holds that people born under those signs can expect to encounter more challenges than others.

你的生肖在 2024 年的运势如何？每个农历年都会有少数生肖犯太岁，传统观念认为，这些属相的人可能会遇到更多挑战。

01

Dragons offend two different tai sui this year, so be prepared for a few bumps ahead.

They should boost their luck with auspicious events such as getting married, starting a family, buying property or starting a business. There is a lucky star that will also help with promotions and progression in their career.

Two cursed stars are present for Dragons this year, which will affect health and lead to accidents. To abate these curses, they should give blood or get their teeth cleaned at the dentist in the third or ninth month of the lunar calendar.

今年属龙的双犯太岁，所以要做好心理准备。

属龙的人今年运势不佳，宜通过结婚、成家、置业或创业等吉事来提升运势。有吉星相助，事业上也能得到晋升和发展。

龙属相的人今年有两颗凶星出现，会影响健康，导致意外事故。要化解厄运，应在农历三月或九月献血或到牙医处洗牙。

02

This will be a good year for learning new things and further education for Snakes, so if there is a course or a hobby they have always wanted to pursue, this is a great time for it.

This is also their year for love, so single Snakes will meet their partner this year.

Snakes working in male-dominated industries will have a good chance for career advancement. It is also a good year for promotions for those in clerical or white-collar jobs.

There are two unlucky stars for Snakes this year that will cast a shadow over their health and relationships. Extra effort made in communicating with their partners may prevent potential break-ups.

对于属蛇人来说，今年是学习新事物、继续深造的好年份，因此如果他们有一直想学习的课程或爱好，今年是大好时机。

今年也是属蛇人的爱情年，因此单身的属蛇人今年会遇到自己的伴侣。

在男性主导的行业中工作的属蛇人，将有很好的晋升机会。对于从事文职或白领工作的属蛇人来说，今年也是升职的好时机。

属蛇人今年有两颗凶星，会给他们的健康和人际关系蒙上阴影。多与伴侣沟通，可避免潜在的分手。

03

This will be a good year for Horses to expand their horizons, so they should consider attending seminars or furthering their education.

Their lucky stars will help them overcome obstacles but there are also cursed stars that will lead to accidents, so stay away from high-risk water sports such as scuba diving and jet skiing this year.

Other cursed stars will affect the home and interpersonal relationships. A good way to balance that bad luck would be to follow the Buddhist tradition and be vegetarian on the first and fifteenth days of each lunar calendar month.

对于属马的人来说，今年是开拓视野的好年份，因此他们应该考虑参加研讨会或继续深造。

他们的吉星将帮助他们克服障碍，但也有一些凶星会带来意外，因此今年要远离高风险的水上运动，如潜水和水上摩托。

其它凶星会影响家庭和人际关系。一个平衡厄运的好方法是遵循佛教传统，在每个农历月的初一和十五吃素。

04

This year Sheep will reap the rewards of effort put in, so it’s a time to work towards their goals.

Their lucky star will help with wealth, so it will be a good time to invest in new ventures. Sheep working in female-dominated industries such as jewellery and cosmetics will have a good chance for career advancement.

But bad stars this year will also affect wealth, and relationships, meaning there will be money disputes ahead. Sheep should be careful about lending to friends and family, or offering themselves as a guarantor of loans.

今年，属羊人的努力将得到回报，因此是努力实现目标的一年。

他们的吉星将助力财富，因此是投资新企业的好时机。从事珠宝、化妆品等女性主导的行业的属羊人会有不错的晋升机会。

但今年的凶星也会影响财运和人际关系，这意味着未来会有金钱纠纷。属羊的人在借贷给亲朋好友或为贷款提供担保时要小心谨慎。

05

Things will go well for Monkeys this year, especially for those seeking partnerships, collaborations and networking.

Work is also great for this animal sign as this is a year of progression, meaning there’s a chance for a raise or promotion.

Cursed stars will lead to some anxiety about people talking behind their backs. Be careful when entering into contracts and legal agreements with counterparties and make sure to consult professionals when dealing with legal matters.

属猴的人今年工作运势也不错，今年是发展之年，有加薪或晋升的机会。

凶星会让人担心别人在背后议论自己。与对方签订合同和法律协议时要小心谨慎，在处理法律事务时一定要咨询专业人士。

06

Roosters match with the guardian deity this year, which means there will be many people to help them along the way, as well as many opportunities arising from networking.

Their lucky stars will help overcome obstacles, so whenever they are in trouble there will be benefactors who will come to their aid.

There is a small unlucky star this year that will affect Roosters’ finances. A good strategy to balance this will be making a large, big-ticket purchase to fulfil a “happy financial loss”, such as a luxury handbag or a car.

There is a strong romance star this year but be mindful that relationships will often be impermanent.

属鸡的人今年合太岁，一路上会有很多人帮助他们，人际交往也会带来很多机会。

吉星会帮助他们克服困难，所以每当他们遇到困难时，就会有贵人前来相助。

今年有一颗小凶星影响属鸡人的财运。一个很好的平衡策略是购买大件、昂贵的商品来实现“幸福的经济损失”，比如一个奢侈包包或一辆汽车。

今年有一颗强大的爱情星，但要注意感情无常。

07

Dogs conflict with the guardian deity this year and should use auspicious events – getting married, starting a family, buying property or starting a business – to wash the bad luck away. They can also attend weddings and parties to boost their luck.

Unfortunately Dogs don’t have lucky stars to help them, so they will have to rely on themselves for a lot of things. There is also a big cursed star that will affect their finances this year, so avoid any aggressive investments.

There are also bad stars that will affect Dogs’ health and home. They can balance this energy by going to give blood or to the dentist in the third or ninth month of the lunar calendar.

属狗的人今年与太岁相冲，应借助结婚、成家、置业或创业等吉事来冲淡霉运。他们还可以参加婚礼和聚会来提升运势。

不幸的是，属狗的人没有吉星相助，所以很多事情只能靠自己。今年还有一颗大凶星影响他们的财运，因此要避免激进的投资。

此外，还有凶星影响属狗人的健康和家庭。他们可以在农历三月或九月去献血或看牙医，以平衡负面能量。

08

Pigs will have a good year in terms of networking and relationships as well as their wealth and career, so there is a good chance for a promotion. Long-term goals will also be achieved this year.

The Year of the Dragon will be big for romance, so single Pigs can meet the love of their life. This will be a good time to attend social events such as weddings and reunions to meet your match.

Unlucky stars will mean Pigs are a bit absent-minded this year, so remember to buy travel insurance before going abroad.

This will also be a year of volatility, so even though it is a year for wealth, pigs should be aware of their risk appetite when investing.

属猪的人今年在社交、爱情以及财富和事业方面都会有不错的发展，因此升职加薪的机会很大。长期目标也将在今年实现。

龙年将是浪漫的一年，单身属猪人会邂逅自己的真爱。今年是参加社交活动（如婚礼和聚会）以邂逅另一半的好时机。

凶星意味着属猪人今年会有点心不在焉，所以出国前记得购买旅行保险。

09

Rats match the tai sui this year so it will be a good year for networking and relationships.

Lucky stars are shining on the careers of Rats so there is a good chance for a promotion at work. Leadership is also in the stars, so this will be a particularly good year for Rats in law enforcement.

There is also a lucky star for wealth, but there are cursed stars that will lead to accidents, so Rats should stay away from high-risk adventure sports.

属鼠的人今年与太岁相合，因此在社交和爱情方面会有不错的发展。

吉星高照，属鼠的人今年事业运势大好，工作上有升职加薪的机会。吉星显示有望进入领导层，因此今年对于从事执法工作的属鼠人来说是特别好的一年。

Unfortunately, Rabbits don’t have lucky stars to help them so they will have to rely on themselves for a lot of things.

Bad stars will also mean it’s easy to get into accidents that lead to injury this year, so Rabbits should give blood or get their teeth cleaned at the dentist in the second or eighth month of the lunar calendar to balance the bad energy.
