Personality

The Monkey and Rooster sit in the west, autumn, the direction of harvest and real results. People missing them are said to have the theme of inheriting work and roles and guarding and growing them. This type is called successor luck (work). You have a strong sense of duty and see what you are given through to the end.

Love and marriage

Because you throw yourself into work, your partner often ends up supporting you. You do well with someone who understands how busy you are and cheers you on. Saying thank you out loud keeps the relationship strong.

Work and what suits you

Taking over core work in a company or growing a family business. You gain strength as you build a record inside an organisation and widen what you are trusted with.

When are the years?

Two years in a row come round every twelve years. The year changes at Risshun (around 4 February).

How to spend the years

The next Monkey and Rooster years are 2028 and 2029. Unplanned moves in work or position are likely, so plan job changes or going independent around them, and spend the two years raising the quality of your current work.
