The ancient Chinese Astrology is not only fascinating but also quite accurate. It's Zodiac is based on 12 signs, a cycle of 12 years and are named after 12 symbolic animals : Rat (or Mouse), Ox (or Buffalo or Bull or Cow), Tiger, Rabbit (or Hare or Cat), Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat (or Sheep or Ram), Monkey, Rooster (or Hen or Cock or Chicken or Phoenix), Dog and Pig (or Boar or Hog).

Your Chinese Astrological Zodiac Animal Sign is based on your Chinese Lunar Year of Birth. The Chinese New Year is movable and could start anywhere between 21st January and 20th February, depending upon the year.

If your Date of Birth falls into any of these below listed Chinese Lunar Years, then, because you are born in the Year of the Goat (or Sheep or Ram), you are symbolically identified as a "Goat or Sheep or Ram" :

CAREER :

Not a stable year for career. Some of you will gain substantially while many others may fall from grace. If you can be patient, co-operative and flexible, you can get through and even grow in power. If you are bold, brave and unyielding, you will face hidden dangers and concealed cheats that could land you in situations leading to brawls, back-biting, scandals and lawsuits. Poor judgements in professional life and internal politics in office would end up in serious domestic crisis. Do not switch jobs and do not plan any expansions. But accept more responsibilities when they come and execute them to the best of your abilities, without worrying about the credits due to you. You would be better off acting conservatively rather than aggressively, right now. You will get your recognition and rewards, in time. Females will fare much better than the males. Wear an Amethyst Pendant and display the combined icon of Dragon & Phoenix alongwith the Rooster icon in the North.

You are in punishment formation with the Tai Sui this year, so display the statue of a Three Generations Dragon Head Turtle alongwith a photograph of the presiding Year Authority of 2006 in the North West, to minimise the negativities of gossips and scandals. You should also wear a Fengshui Rabbit Pendant or place the statue of a Rabbit in the East. (The position of Tai Sui corresponds to North West this year. Tai Sui is also popularly called as Grand Duke of Jupiter and is an intangible energy body of war-like nature that should not be disturbed.)

MONEY :

Cashflow will just trickle in. Some of you could make irregular but spectacular monetary gains through timely and exclusive tips from influential people. Big expenses and high money loss are in store. You may have to spend a lot of money on health bills. Finding more financial resources will be the top job. Plant a Citrine or Red Cornelian Crystal Tree in the North. Plan your budget stringently and save anything that you can.

HEALTH :

Average health. Don't let your worries dominate your health. Sleep and rest well. Relax and meditate when you can. Some of you may get foot and throat problems.

LOVE :

Mixed luck here too. Be careful when you deal with your spouse. No arguments please. Spend quality time with your dear ones. Good mutual communication is a must, even if you are travelling. If you wish, install a pair of pink Mandarin Ducks in the South West of your bedroom.
