1/20 is the day of Fire Monkey in the month of Fire Ox. This is the beginning of the month of Fire Ox, and marks the last lunar month in the Chinese lunar calendar year of Wood Horse. Chinese new year comes with the next new moon, February 19.
Fire Ox month can bring out discord in relationships, especially in marriage and with in-laws. And while it tends, because of its relationship with Horse Year, to generate anxiety associated with obstacles and difficulties, it is a generally lucky month for people born in years or days of Snake and Rooster. Fire Monkey favors saving up money. It is also the Star of Arts for Snake, Rooster, and Ox. If you were born in a year or day of one of these three signs this month favors creative planning, and artistic work.
The combination of Fire Monkey day with Fire Ox day is harmonious. It favors working hard to make money. Fire Monkey is an Academic Nobleman Star, having the ability to take advantage of problematic situations.
Monkey is the Traveling Star for Tiger, Horse, and Dog. If you were born in a year or day of one of these three signs, this is a day to be active. It favors travel, and making changes and moves in your home and/or at work.
1/20, 1/21, and 1/22 are not advantageous days for people born in years of Pig, Rabbit, or Sheep for important meetings or events. Guard against others taking unfair advantage of you or trying to compromise you. Wear something black to ward off shar (bad luck).
1/20 is also a bad day for anyone born in a year of Snake, Rooster, or Ox to get into an argument.
The I Ching hexagram for this day, using the King Wen method, is number 1, line 6.
Hexagram 1 is Qian, Heaven. Heaven is all-embracing. It brings complete success through perseverance. This hexagram is good in winter.
Line 6 warns against going to extremes and acting arrogantly. The zodiac sign of line 6, Dog, is in harmony with the signs of changing line 4, and with the sign for the day. But it clashes with the sign for the month. The Fire of Fire Monkey day puts a dragon in line 6. If in making progress you encounter a serious challenge, deal with it. Don't let yourself be abused.
The elements of this hexagram are Metal, Metal, and Metal. Good Fortune.
