RAT: 1912, 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008

Although you may suffer from occasional melancholy this year, you shouldn’t complain: you’ll become more confident, more intuitive and more creative. Your love life holds excellent prospects. Singles will definitely find a lover who may have long-term potential, and those in a relationship will revel in the warmth of love. You’ll need to prioritise at work, and not let yourself delay in dealing with difficult tasks. You will strive for and get results, but should be careful to be diplomatic. As the year goes by you’ll become more inventive and this will bring success. However you’ll need to steer clear of impulsive actions at the end of the year, when your ambitions may temporarily be thwarted, perhaps because of issues in your personal life. There’ll be good study opportunities this year. Think carefully before taking out any loans in the first quarter, seek counsel in reorganising your finances in the third quarter, and don’t hesitate to ask for a pay rise at the end of the year.
