Monkey If your birthday is before February 4, then your astrological sign is Sheep, not Monkey. (Verify Your Sign)

That is a sign of jinx in Chinese horoscopes when a Monkey meets another Monkey. That means people born in the year of Monkey won't have good luck during any Monkey years. The scene is that if a Monkey is passing by a land with a local Monkey tyrant in charge. If the traveling Monkey can keep quiet, then it will be safe and pass the land. If the traveling Monkey wants to mess with or challenge the tyrant, then trouble will come to the traveling Monkey during its journey.

Therefore, if you are the traveling Monkey under somebody's territory. You had better play low-profile during that journey. You should realize it's normal that your people relationship, love relationship, money luck or job development could encounter a certain limitation in the year of Monkey.

The above is not complete true. According to Chinese Yin Yang Five Elements (Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth) astrology, our astrology birth chart built by our birthday and birth time contains different amounts of Five Elements. Imbalanced Five Elements will bring us bad luck.

Monkey is in the Metal group. Monkey year will bring more Metal to you. If you already have too much Metal in your astrology birth chart, then you won't do well in the Monkey years. If you have only a few Metal in your birth chart, then the Monkey always brings you good luck.

Monkey is also connected to the strong wind. Two Monkeys together generate even stronger wind. That will become natural hazard to damage people's properties. That's the sign of money loss.
