It’s time to hog all the glory this year, my friend! People close to you know you as the hardworking and faithful friend. Some might even say that you’re stylish as well, serving some of the best looks around town! It’s no wonder that you put a lot of thought into your day-to-day outfits.
This year, everything you desire will come rather easily to you (it is YOUR year, after all!), and luck and success will help your self-esteem greatly. Anticipate new friends this year as well, as many will be attracted by your beneficent and lucky aura. However, word of caution: not all these new friends come bearing good intentions to be aware of these individuals! Since the Year of the Dog bore a number of hardships for you, it’s only fair that you desire more than ever to seize happiness this year so enjoy the new wind and reap with delight the fruits of your labour and good fortune in 2019!
As a gourmet of the group, don’t be shy to splurge your newfound wealth on delectable spreads and the best eats in Singapore. From popular buffets to everyone’s favourite spots, dive in and enjoy yourself – you deserve it!

2. RAT
As one of the most intelligent animals of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs, the choices that you make are pretty solid and you know it too – which can also mean that you get stubborn about what you like and what you don’t like.
For the Lunar New Year, be prepared to face a period of change and transition. This will cause a shift in your routine and you’ll feel anxious to restructure life, but don’t jump into huge projects just yet! It’s best to start planning and taking baby steps throughout the year, and use this as an opportunity to reflect.

It’s also recommended to embrace life a la Marie Kondo and clear out any unwanted junk to make room for optimism. Things can get stressful at work as well, so make sure to take care of yourself and don’t skip meals!

3. OX
Traditions are your foundation, loyal Ox, but you’ll need to be aware not to get carried away with your legendary tantrums! While 2019 starts off on a somewhat ambivalent note, things will start getting rather bumpy as the year progresses. But perseverance is your second nature, so you’ll still manage with resistance and determination throughout the year.

You will be tempted to seize opportunities to sow new seeds and strive to turn your projects into profitable undertakings. From experiencing a disappointing Year of the Dog, you may be cautious to pursue your ambitions at first but fret not: take comfort in knowing that your investments will ultimately be extremely beneficial towards the end of the year, while developing strategic partnerships along the way!
It’s about to be a fruitful year for you, dear Ox, so treat yourself to some fancy dining options to satisfy your cravings. From Modern European flavours to exquisite French cuisine, take your pick because the world is your oyster!

4. TIGER
There’s an attractive air about you, charming Tiger, and you know you’re gifted with irresistible magnetism even if you don’t usually acknowledge it. You’re no stranger to having all the attention, which may explain why you need a job that allows you to express yourself as a leader.
However, 2019 will come as a challenge for you, so prepare for twists and turns that may put you in a rough spot. But with your courageous (and sometimes reckless) personality, these are challenges that you can easily overcome. Take heed to find solace from the comforts of your own home so that you can make a clear and objective assessment of what you have struggled with in the past and learn from them. It is also best to steer clear of going on solitary trips, and avoid interfering with events that don’t directly concern you!

Out of all the zodiac signs, none can pull off a suave and cool demeanour like our dearest Snake. Elegant and refined characters, you are never one to doubt yourself and why should you, when you know you’re good at what you do? You are also endowed with a subtle and captivating beauty which helps you avoid money problems unlike most of the other Chinese zodiac signs.
This year brings a mixture of good joy and good humour with a dash of difficulty, however. Many disappointments abound, mostly caused by imperfections and delays in your daily life. It may test your nerves for once, but don’t lose your cool just yet! Stay persistent and double your efforts to maintain the balance in the Year of the Pig.

8. HORSE
As the most free-spirited Chinese zodiac, you are known for your proclivity for travel, our dearest equine friend. Culture and society are your passions, and you are extremely comfortable in settings that allow you to share what you know about different cultures. However, your tendency to shrink responsibilities due to your insatiable desire for freedom may prove to be a challenge when it comes to completing projects!
Nevertheless, the Year of the Pig beckons for stronger social ties and a clearer prioritisation towards activities that have long been neglected. Devote yourself to leisure, arts, and interior decoration to help relieve stress as well; rejuvenate at home with family and friends so that you can retain your strength to set up ambitious future projects.
This year seems to be marked by pleasure and gluttony, signalling for heightened social activities to strengthen the bond on the occasion of good meals with friends. Looking for your next spot to hang out at? Try these happening bars and tapas houses around town, and let the good times roll!

Love, exciting discoveries, and new experiences are all aligned with your year, so seize the opportunity when you can!

Hardships were fought and won last year, and you continue your journey with a positive outlook. With the Year of the Pig, it’s time to take advantage of the new year and embark on new activities! Bulk up your contacts and start socialising; however, don’t neglect your loved ones as they need the attention too. Show that you care for them by filling up their tummies!

Last year was your year so in the Year of the Pig, it’s time for you to take a step back and relax. Take the necessary time to rejuvenate in the peace and serenity that your home offers, so that you can draw strength for business meetings that may come your way this year.
