What the zodiac signs say today

The Chinese follow a zodiac pattern that is represented by various animals. They believe that the animals also affect the characters of people, just like the western astrology signs do.

Here is what horoscope.com says about the Chinese Horoscope

Rat: Your emotions may be on overdrive this morning. Intense feelings need to be channelled properly. It is especially important to let wounded pride cloud your judgment. Things will begin to ease in the afternoon. Sincere involvement with someone younger or weaker can make a big difference to his or her happiness.

Ox: Your fashion sense is strong. This is an ideal time for treasure hunting with friends. For very little money, you can add spice to your wardrobe and make a big impression. Creating a clean house can make you feel calmer and more prepared for the week ahead.

Tiger: Simply do the job in front of you. Don't expect support for big projects. Avoid being too self-critical. Quiet time listening to your heart will show you where to put your attention. Your natural sympathy and generosity make you a great favourite with children and people who appreciate good character.

Rabbit: It's break time! You'll be more effective if you take care of yourself first. This is an ideal time to create beauty around you and do simple things around the house. Add more colour and plants to your world. Wear comfortable clothes and don't worry about the usual chores.

Dragon: This is a very expansive day. It favors travel or planning for business or holiday journeys. You can shine in any social setting, particularly taking the lead in gatherings of people you know well. A more timid person may not have the courage to face you about a touchy issue.

Snake: Struggles for power or control can make things tense. A "live and let live" attitude is best. Make your own decisions. Allow others to express their love. Set modest and very specific goals for yourself. This is a positive time to promote or sell anything you feel strongly about.

Horse: Your natural restlessness is strong today. There is a chance of quarrels, especially if your desires are thwarted. You, or someone near you, may resort to stinging criticism. Find a way to channel your sharp wit into constructive channels. Keep things light. You will enjoy pursuing little errands in the neighbourhood.

Goat: Today can bring a major turning point for you or the one you love. Step up to express your affection in dramatic ways. Dress to impress, but within reason. Try not to take yourself too seriously. A playful and generous approach is best. Avoid jealousy or becoming overly possessive.

Monkey: Your natural cleverness may gain recognition or sort out difficult or confusing situations. You can shine in team efforts. At the very least, move through your day with confidence. A feeling that things are becoming dull may have you planning or playing tricks. Be sure others will appreciate the joke.

Rooster: Are you a person who demands extra attention? The week begins with more than your usual extravagance. You probably know what you want. Being too flexible may scatter your energies early in the day. Stay organized. Plan carefully or you may end up feeling anxious or frustrated.

Dog: Expect a fortunate day full of excitement. This can be a busy time, so get organised early with specific goals in mind. Any worry about the future is unnecessary and should be ignored in favour of having fun. Home, pets, and family needing extra attention can also bring unexpected rewards.

Pig: It's a wonderful day to share any interest in good food and good times with people you like. Is it time to have friends over for a party? You could also plan a special meal for the family. Bringing people together in this way builds an important sense of togetherness.
