Predictions For 2021
The Energy of the Year of the Metal Ox
The Bazi chart of the year 2021 shows that the Fire element is missing and the Earth element is in excess. The missing Fire element represents missing wealth luck and the excessive Earth element indicates unwanted attention.
Going into 2021, the strong influence of Water will continue to cast a dark shadow of fear all over the world. The atmosphere will feel dull, cold, and gray. This will bring fierce competition, fights for power, big conflicts. It’s not the year when people play clean. Oppositely, they will play very dirty to get what they want by any means.
The continuous decline in economic growth will force investors to be more conservative and the public to spend less (demand will go down).
In general, the Metal Ox Year is a symbol of a harsh and cold atmosphere that incites disharmony, conflict, assassination, and terrorism. As the world economy continues to decline, the atmosphere of distrust will lead to more social unrest, political struggles, international tensions, assassinations, subversions, and coups.
Furthermore, with the drastic and extreme nature of Yin Metal, brute force and cold-blooded killing will frequent the news and heighten the emotional intensity of the year. People may choose to resort to violence in achieving their ideology and bring about more protests, demonstrations, and anti-government sentiments.
Natural disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, water and air accidents, environmental disasters, and world epidemics will continue to persist and prevail.
2021 is a year with severe aggression. There is a possibility for revolution. You will notice that people become much more angry and aggressive. This is the time when aggressive people cause lots of trouble and even close friends can become enemies. Make sure you carry the 28 HUMs Protection Wheel Amulet throughout the entire year to protect yourself from aggressive and destructive energies!
2021 lacks growth energy which is going to be problematic for businesses and the economy. Generally, the world economy is going to be pretty weak this year. Many businesses will suffer from a lack of resources or support for expansion and innovation. Productivity will be reduced. However, the Horoscope 2021 promises that hardworking, disciplined, and patient people will be able to reach good results and have good potential for gaining success.
This year it is very important to always have live plants around you – it will bring growth, soothes aggressiveness, and attract friends. Alternatively, you can wear green accessories to activate the Wood element in your life.
There is an indication of strong politicking and back-stabbing, as well as gossip this year. Conflicts and misunderstandings will be continued throughout the year. However, horoscope 2021 promises that a coming together at the end of the year will bring improved harmony.
The younger generation must be realistic and guard against arrogance and over-confidence, or they are sure to face problems.
Health Predictions For 2021
In 2021, we will continue to see the COVID-19 pandemic spread, including more prevalent cases of the flu and viral infections affecting people’s breathing organs (lungs, nose, skin).
Furthermore, because the Fire element is totally absent in the chart, the Earth Element of the Ox is very weak, contributing to the weakness of the stomach such as digestive problems and diabetes. The weakness of the Fire element will also affect the “Fire organs” such as the heart, blood circulation, and overall vitality of the body. The excessive amount of Water element in the chart could wreak havoc on the urinary system, kidneys, and reproductive organs.
The biggest problem in 2021 is the weakness of the Fire element. To bring balance, consider taking certain health supplements such as antioxidants (to regulate the Earth element) and CoQ10 to strengthen the Fire element. Be sure to check with your licensed health provider for the adequate use of these supplements.
Also, work-related stress could become a cause of ill health this year. Make sure you make time for daily meditations and pranayama – this will help you to reduce your stress level and calm down. Also, make sure to use all the Feng Shui recommendations for good health and longevity!
Relationship Predictions For 2021
In 2021, overall romance is not in the air! Betrayal and infidelity energies can affect stale marriages. Depression and worries create misunderstandings, leading to breakups. Beware third parties and gossip mongers ruining your relationship. Avoid temptation and taking the easy way out, which would only lead to more problems!
However, the relationship/marriage problems will not be faced by those born in the years of the Snake, Monkey, Tiger, and Boar as they have good luck stars to protect them from the negative influences of betrayal and infidelity energies.
Finances In 2021
The energy of the Water Element is going to take over and prevail in 2021. Pessimism, cynicism, and despair will set in and contribute to economic decline. Any activities will also lead to longer-term setbacks, and more economic crises will arise. Because the Fire element is missing in the chart until 2025, we can expect a longer bearish market ahead.
Let’s take a closer look at the luck of different industries in 2021.
Fire Element Industries:
- the stock market;
- entertainment;
- power generation;
- restaurants, etc.
Industries belonging to the Fire Element can expect prosperity because Fire conquers Metal, and Metal is Fire’s money.
2021 is a year when strong fundamentals will do better. Fire industries will have a very speculative market but lack of growth potential. Focus on small but steady profits.
Earth Element Industries:
- real estate;
- mining;
- hotels;
- building constructions;
- land development;
- insurance;
- technology;
- computer software, etc.
2021 continues to be challenging for the earth industries with plenty of competition. Lack of demand and higher costs will reduce profits. The second half of the year will see an increase in sales of used properties. Speculative investments will result in loss.
Metal Element Industries:
- automobiles;
- engineering;
- banking;
- machinery;
- jewelry;
- white goods, etc.
The Metal industries will face serious competition this year. They need to run lean as business continues to be poor. Consolidate strengths and reduce costs to stay in the game. Focus on innovation and niche markets.
Water Element Industries:
- shipping;
- transportation;
- communication;
- beverages;
- shipping;
- fishing, etc.
Water industries will not be able to make money this year. They will see the reduced profits due to lack of sales. It’s important to reinvent the industry to stay ahead and work extra hard on staying competitive.
Wood Element Industries:
- fashion;
- media;
- publishing;
- the environment and climate change;
- plantation;
- agriculture;
- flowers and plants, etc.
The money prospect for the Wood industries is also weak. They will see lower profits, reduced production, and poorer harvests but can continue operations. You need to be more efficient and to work on reducing costs. Then you may see the potential to make money.
In summary, industries belonging to the Fire and Earth Elements will prosper and make progress. All other industries will suffer or experience an uphill climb.
Stock Market Outlook
There is a lack of sustainability in the world stock markets – lack of growth. Stock markets will lack volume, although there are enough resources. Beware of companies that make promising announcements!
There is potential for good profits in the middle of the year. Innovative companies with new technology will see excellent growth.
Use your lucky Feng Shui colors to activate your hidden potential and make this year prosperous!
Career Predictions For 2021
2021 lacks growth energy, therefore, this is not a good year for changing jobs or careers.
Stay focused and do not allow your feelings to control your decisions. Stay calm and avoid confrontations with co-workers. Don’t refuse added work responsibilities to improve promotion prospects.
In 2021, you have to work harder than usual to succeed. As this is a challenging year, do not allow yourself to get distracted. As friendships and networking play big roles this year, learn to work as a team for greater success. Keep emotions under control as there will be unavoidable situations that create anger and frustration.
To strengthen your career luck and activate wealth-bringing opportunities, display the Winning-Chip Talisman on your work desk. Those born in the year of Ox, Tiger, Horse, and Rooster especially should apply this enhancer, as they have heightened chances of increasing their asset wealth substantially this year.
The Bottom Line
I hope that Bazi predictions for 2021 helped you to get more clarity about the year of the Metal Ox. But the main thing to remember in 2021 is that the Ox is a kind and hard-working animal that rewards people who put energy and effort into their work, stay focused on their goals, and being kind to others. Therefore, if you want this year to be successful for you, make sure you stay kind and work hard!
