A daily forecast that is yours alone
Everyone born in the year of the Goat sees the same forecast today. The member daily forecast is worked out from your full BaZi chart: what to do first today, what to avoid, how work, money and relationships look, and your two best hours, delivered to your inbox or browser at the time you choose.
How to read the zodiac forecast
How is the daily zodiac forecast worked out?
It compares the day's stem and branch with your sign. A Six Harmony or Three Harmony between the day branch and your sign's branch traditionally means easy rapport and help; a clash, punishment or harm signals change or friction. Whether the day stem's element supports or controls your sign's element adds a smaller adjustment. The same sign on the same day always gets the same result.
Why do people with the same sign have different days?
Your zodiac sign reflects only one character, the year of birth, while a BaZi chart has eight: year, month, day and hour. Use the zodiac forecast as a light daily reminder; to see how today relates to your own chart, look at a daily reading based on your full BaZi.
Does the zodiac year start at Chinese New Year or Start of Spring?
Popular custom changes the sign at Chinese New Year, while BaZi uses Start of Spring (around 4 February). If you were born in January or February the two can differ by one sign; calculating your BaZi chart shows your year pillar.
The zodiac forecast follows traditional relationships between the day's stem and branch and each sign. It is cultural content, for reference only.
