2016 is Male Fire Monkey year. Male Fire is related to the Sun. Fire is connected to red. So 2016 is the Red Monkey Year. The prediction here for 2016 Monkey is a little bit difference from the previous years. Besides the theory of Five Elements (Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth), the prediction follows more natural phenomena of the Wood cycle to forecast the fortune. This is because that only Wood (tree) in the Five Elements has the life cycle.

In the traditional Five Elements, Wood helps Fire to burn. Wood is the mother element of Fire. Wood wastes the energy to Fire. Since Sunshine provides energy for trees to grow. Now we adjust that Male Fire (Sun) contains the mother characteristics to tree. It's hard to burn down a tall tree. Only dead wood is for burning.

In Five Elements, Metal is connected to the lung. Metal is strong in the autumn, which is the wind season. Male Metal of August refers to the strong wind. Female Metal of September refers to slow flowing air, such as fog. People can see the fruit on the tree in September before the harvest season. So Female Metal also will be connected to the fruit.

Furthermore, 2016 prediction adds the element of I-Ching to concrete the accuracy in some zodiac-sign combinations. Every prediction contains Yin and Yang, the prediction tries to avoid the negatives.

The following predictions are based on the birth year, Chinese Zodiac Sign. The 2016 Five Element Chinese Astrology explanation is still available at http://www.chinesefortunecalendar.com/2016chineseastrology.htm

I'm a Fire Dragon, and I'm really trying to find the time and stop the excuses, and fit as many long walks into a week, as I can. There's also a warning in Western astrology for me of: "Eyes bigger than stomach". So I'm trying to be mindful of this and this Chinese forecast might be the extra kick I needed.

So far I'm enjoying this year even though there definitely have been challenges. My husband is a Monkey though, so for him it's really a lucky year! :joyful:
