Those born in the Year of the Ox will experience ups and downs with health this year. The beginning of the year comes with the promise of hard work, but at the cost of neglecting your health. The chance to prove yourself will make you fatigued with a minor illness and unfavorable health conditions. It’s advised to take time to care for yourself and your health.

Oxen can expect a more auspicious year under the influence of the Pig. This year will still have its ups and downs, but despite some bad signs on the horizon, stability can be expected overall.

Tiger

Therefore, you should take notice of potential liver illnesses and regulate yourself accordingly to keep well.

This year you will find that success will not come easily, but you will find many helping hands that share your workload and support you when you need it most. Being relaxed and patient this year is the right recipe to attract what you need.

Snake

The Year of the Pig is going to be a challenging year for the Snakes, because you have less blessings from auspicious stars, yet more impacts from inauspicious stars. You may come across trouble in health, so be sure to look after your body more to avoid health issues.

For other aspects of life, like work and relationships, be more optimistic and patient, and you may turn ill luck into good and make miracles.

Horse

Similar to snakes, the health forecast for Monkeys is the weakest outlook on your 2019 horizon. You will have to pay close attention to minor sicknesses such as colds or the flu to keep them from developing into anything major.

This year the inauspicious stars will mean turbulence in relationships, including misunderstandings between you and your co-workers or partners. To help you get through the tough times, it’s important to be patient and communicate more effectively when disagreements occur.

Rooster

Roosters are more vulnerable to poor health in the Year of the Pig, so take care of your health by eating better and doing more exercise. During this challenging time, take note of your mental wellness too, as you will be at high stress level, so it’s a good year to take up meditation and yoga if you haven’t already.

This is a difficult year for the Roosters in other areas too, for example, you may suffer financial losses. You should be more careful in dealing with things calmly and listen more to other’s opinions, so as to get over the year safely.

Dog

Health is the one area that is not all that positive for Dogs, but it is not entirely negative either, rather landing somewhere in the middle. Dogs can expect to suffer from fatigue (partly due to a busy life), as well as some lesser illnesses such as stomach ache and mild flu. You should take care of yourself by maintaining a daily routine of exercise and a balanced diet, which will improve your health prospects.

Other areas are better as you will see fortunes on the rise in 2019. You will also be assisted by others and have many good surprises in daily life.

Pig

For the Pigs, this is your own Zodiac year, but surprisingly it’s not a great year for you. Health can be rated as mediocre for Pigs this year. While there are no major illnesses on your horizon, Pigs will have to pay special attention to minor illnesses to keep them from growing into something large.

The impact of several inauspicious stars will make your overall luck this year not good, so it will be a shaky year for you. Fortunately, you are blessed by two auspicious stars, which can improve your outlook and turn ill luck into good.
