The successful and dynamic Year of the Metal Rat, 2020 will be a year of growth. There will be golden opportunities galore for finding true love and earning wealth. The Year of the Metal Rat comes right after the Year of the Earth Pig (2019) and before the Year of the Metal Ox (2021). Since The Rat is the first sign from the 12-animal cycle of the Chinese Astrology, 2020 is considered a year of new beginnings and renewals.
The Metal Rat Year is going to be a strong, prosperous and lucky year for almost all Chinese zodiac signs. Everyone will show determination regarding their goals and aspirations. This is a great year for founding and evolving. Those who buy real estate, start a business or invest in long-term projects, have a good chance of a bright future. But, beware! This type of initiative will only be successful if meticulously planned.
This year is extremely bright and full of motivation. Think of it as a precious gift … a new, clean, fresh slate, with no mistakes and regrets. The Rat Year will bring in creative energy, which can manifest by fulfilling many dreams. You will realise that everything is possible and that you are the creator of your own life. To have an even greater year, it’s wise to include in your diet what rats like to eat. This means nuts and all kinds of cheese. Dress well and wear fine jewellery, because rats love opulence.
The metal element creates the wonderful water element, which means a flow of wealth and productivity for the metal industries. These include the production of cars and machinery, IT, high tech products, jewellery, marine and water-related industries, among others.
All the actions initiated this year are driven by success. You need to follow your goals with confidence and determination. You have to be relentless in order to accomplish your objectives and never let yourself be discouraged by failure or difficulties. Although on some days you may be fairly unreasonable, inflexible and stubborn, you need to count on your own strength and solve problems.
On the romance front, after 2019, a year full of unpredictable situations in love matters, 2020 is going to be more exciting. Your love life enters a harmonious path and communication helps to maintain it. Health wise, practicing sports is still the best medicine and is prescribed to each of us for improving our health and well-being. It reduces medical expenses and helps to have a restful sleep, thereby increasing productivity and maximising your potential.
All throughout 2020, luck is on your side, but you need to seize it as soon as it knocks on your door. The Chinese say that nothing scares away the luck more than you doubting it. In turn, those who show enthusiasm and act quickly will ensure their success.
In conclusion, the Year of the Metal Rat will not only bring beneficial circumstances, golden opportunities, meetings with special people and overall good luck but also dilemmas and changes that can push us out of our comfort zone. It’s up to us how we use them and especially how we perceive the experiences we encounter.
