It's Chinese New Year - the Year of the Sheep, so look east for inspiration with our great zodiac guide and find the peace and prosperity you desire and deserve. Locate your birth year, look up your animal sign and see what joys the coming 12 months have waiting for you.

Sheep: 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015
Some say you're a Sheep, some say you're a Goat, but you'll be more of a go-getting Ram this year. Don't stay in the shadows where you cannot be seen, seek out the spotlight, because it's your turn to shine. That creative project you've been working on? It will bring fame and fortune at last.

Monkey: 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004
You will be unusually reserved and restrained over the coming 12 months - your clever Monkey brain has some pretty big questions to think about and you can't be dealing with too much noise and confusion. Create a space you can call your own and retreat there whenever you need peace and quiet

Rooster: 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005
Work - why is there so much of it? Because you are always so eager to take on more tasks, that's wy. Yes, you like to impress, but this year you need to co-operate more with other people so you can share the load. Don't worry, you will still get to crow about your many Rooster successes.

Dog: 1934, 1946, 1958, 1979, 1982, 1994, 2006
No one is more charming than the lovable Dog but you have collected so many friends that your social life has taken over. You still have a burning desire to fulfil your potential, so focus more on your career over the coming 12 months. A few less nights on the town will do you no harm.

Pig: 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007
You will get out into the world and explore this year and the more exotic the destination and the more unusual the people you meet the more you will enjoy yourself. Has the dependable Pig taken leave of his senses? Maybe, but when fantasy is this much fun why should you care about reality?

Rat: 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008
The Rat may not care much about money - the best things in life tend to be free - but the serious side of your nature (yes, there is one!) is urging you to plan for your financial future. You don't have to give up your life of adventure but you do have to find ways to make it pay.

Ox: 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009
It may seem to some as if nothing ever bothers you but that just shows what great self-control you possess. But when romance comes knocking this year - and it will - your emotions are likely to go haywire. Once your affections have been engaged there can be no turning back - the Ox mates for life.

Tiger: 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010
The noble Tiger wants to be everyone's friend but the fact is some people are on contrary wavelengths and there can be no meeting of minds, still less of hearts. Don't let differences of outlook undermine your emotional or mental well-being this year. It takes all sorts to make such an intersting world.

Rabbit: 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011
Life will be a frenzy of activity for the Rabbit this - that dear little bunny we all know and love will transmogrify into a Mad March Hare. Anyone who thinks you lack ambition will be forced to think again and if it's their job you desire, it won't be long fefore they are out on their ear.

Dragon: 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012
The Dragon won't stray far from his lair this year - home is where the heart is and home is where you will find peace and fulfilment. No matter how ambitious you may be your greatest joy will come from teaching all those little dragons how to be big, firebreathing monsters just like you.

Snake: 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013
You may be wise as a serpent but there is always more to learn and what you discover over the coming 12 months wil change your opioions and maybe your ambitions too. Don't keep what you find out to yourself - use your way with words to let others in on the secret. Knowledge is power.

Horse: 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014
The Horse likes to take risks and usually they pay off but a little more caution is needed this year. Make sure you know who your real friends are and don't fall for get-rich-quick schemes. If someone tries to sweet-talk you into parting with cash, hold on to your wallet as tight as you can.
