Year of the Ox zodiac predictions 2021 with Thierry Chow

Chinese zodiac: rat

If your Chinese sign is the rat, you share it with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. Because the rat is already over the conflicting Fan Tai Sui year of 2020, there should be more stability in 2021, according to Chow. “It’s good for him to actually try new things,” she says of 1984-born Zuckerberg. This year she recommends that if he has a direction he wants to go in creatively, he should try out new concepts and ideas.

Kylie Jenner will experience a Fan Tai Sui year, just like the rest of us born in the Year of the Ox. This means she can expect to experience a lot of instability. Chow warns that the 1997-born celebrity should be aware of this as some of the things she has done before or been working on will, “tend to be a bit more challenging this year.” While it might not be a smooth year for Jenner, Chow says this can also be a good thing as challenges present an opportunity to grow.

Chinese zodiac: tiger
