A kind friend, despite feuds with Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber, Gomez has found a supportive partner in Blanco – so could September be the time to take their relationship to the next level?

A multitalented singer and actress with nearly 430 million followers on Instagram, Selena Gomez began her career as a child actress before emerging as a teen idol. She has released multiple albums, starred in numerous films, and won over 200 awards over her two-decade career. So what does the Year of the Wood Dragon hold for the 31-year-old superstar?

Born in the Year of the Water Monkey and Month of the Fire Goat on an Earth Pig Day – on July 22, 1992 – Gomez is an Earth personality. She is well suited to her booming beauty business, and while strong competitive forces may present certain challenges, it will be all about branding going forward. Gomez values her own space and her home is her sanctuary.

Sensitive and exuding an air of grace, she is a good friend – despite well-publicised feuds with fellow “It” girls Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber. The Wood Dragon year may not be easy as it can stoke envy or jealousy, which could lead to legal issues or potential obstacles to success. This is a yo-yo year for Gomez – one that demands a strong and detached approach for her to evolve unscathed from external and destructive forces.

According to her human destiny cycles, Gomez is currently in a progressive cycle (ages 30–34) as she is influenced by the energy of the Dragon. The Dragon demands hard work and discipline, which could create an elemental overload for her already strong Earth energy. This could cause her to feel trapped, judged and misunderstood by certain individuals. The Wood Dragon year may not be easy as it could cause an elemental (emotional) overload for Gomez; maintaining harmony will be key to her success this year.

Although Gomez is always prepared to adopt a “live and let live” approach, her social status demands that she go against her nature to fuel her public image, usually when she is most vulnerable – and at times in ways she may regret.

Resisting definition, Gomez’s Monkey nature can appear disorganised and unconventional – yet this adds to her charm, leading her to become involved in situations that only add to the confusion.

The Wood Dragon year will offer Gomez the chance to make corrections in her life should she choose to do so, as this is considered a karmic year for her, when opportunities come in the form of lessons to be learned. Gomez rarely takes herself seriously – but she does take her craft very seriously.
