The Monkey always considers life to be a comedy rather than a tragedy, and this saves them from pessimism and discouragement. They will therefore enjoy themselves this year, and do many frivolous things, but will always keep a certain sense of balance. Moreover, they will study philosophers, particularly those who know how to make fun of philosophy, such as Montaigne and Pascal. If they continue on this path, they will have many chances to spend the year profitably. Beware, however! They should not continue to believe that all people are foolish except for themselves: 'It's great folly to want to be wise all alone,' as La Rochefoucauld said!

First quarter

In January, the stars present you with some challenges. Some natives will notice that their mate is swimming in rough waters. You must then accept the situation with calm and resignation, avoiding inopportune and useless scenes. But as early as February, you'll profit from very good amorous prospects. Your ties will strengthen. As for single natives, flirtations will be numerous, and encounters will take place in an unusual manner and in unexpected places.

Second quarter

Love at first sight might befall you during April. In any case, amorous happiness will come within your reach. Don't be so unmindful that you miss the boat and have to regret it. Be aware that 'Once lost, Jupiter himself cannot bring back opportunity' as Phaedrus said. During these months, you'll set your own limits and won't listen to another's outmoded ideas. From now on you'll lead your love life as you like. Your mate will be irresistible at the beginning of June. As for single natives, this period will prove stimulating; new encounters will bring about much joy of living, and the relationships will be marked with sentimentality and dreams.

Third quarter

Your appetite for enjoyment will be intensified in the course of this period. You'll appreciate pleasures of all kinds, most particularly the amorous ones. Happy encounters will probably take place during these months. As for married couples, emotions will be stronger and more profound. By the beginning of September, your heart will be restless, though. You'll be craving a change of pace. Talk about this with your beloved one: they will in all likelihood be disposed to cooperate with you in order to find an ideal solution to your problem.
