Our Chinese horoscope predicts good luck for each zodiac sign all week, starting August 26-September 1, 2024. The I Ching hexagram is Fire over Mountain (#56), changing to Water over Thunder (#3). This hexagram urges us always to be excited about what’s new and unexplored.
You can always temper this prediction with realism so you don’t miss essential cues, stops and starts. If the enthusiasm is missing, your fears will soon take over, and you may not push yourself past your comfort zone at the first challenge or discomfort.
Every world traveler will tell you the same. Exploring new places and meeting new people is always worth the pains that come with long airport transits, the discomfort of learning and speaking (badly) in a foreign language, or eating something that disagrees with your stomach.
The realism will help you prepare to the best of your capabilities, which includes getting vaccines for tropical diseases and keeping maps and info cards close. But the enthusiasm will help you explore and experience the new. Will you let this be your guiding light this week? It’s a choice only you can make. Now, let’s focus on the horoscopes for each Chinese zodiac sign.
Each Chinese zodiac sign’s weekly horoscope beginning August 26-September 1, 2024.
