2027, the Year of the Fire Goat

6 February 2027 – 25 January 2028 · Goat · Fire · Yin

In the Chinese calendar, 2027 is the Year of the Fire Goat. It begins with Chinese New Year on 6 February 2027 and runs until 25 January 2028. The Goat (also called the Sheep) is linked with gentleness, creativity, compassion and a longing for peace; the Fire element with passion, visibility and speed. Together they point to a year in which the arts, home life, close relationships and looking after one another come forward, but in which feelings also flare up easily.

In a Fire Goat year, cooperation pays more than fierce competition, and patience more than hasty decisions. Creative work, caring and healing professions and small but careful ventures suit the mood of the year. Keeping emotional reactions in check, and not spending according to your mood, is seen as the year's main lesson.

The readings below follow the animal of your birth year. The Chinese year changes between late January and mid-February, so if you were born in those weeks you may belong to the previous year's animal; if you're not sure, find your Chinese zodiac sign.
