The Chinese zodiac consists of 12 animals, each representing a year in a 12-year cycle. These animals are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

Each is associated with certain personality traits and characteristics; for example, the Dragon, the only mythical creature, stands for power and luck.

However, the astrologer and tarot reader Valeria Black suggests that each of the 12 animal signs will experience one that day, which brings them good fortune this month.

Sharing her astrological insights with Your Tango, Valeria revealed the “luckiest” date for each of the 12 zodiac signs in November.

She explained that the I Ching hexagram of luck for the month is Heaven over Thunder, which “reminds us that luck can sometimes breeze right past us if we don’t know what it looks like”.

Rat

The astrologer urged those born in the Year of the Rat (1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008, and 2020) to eliminate toxic beliefs that they are not destined for good luck and instead ground themselves through meditation. Valeria suggested that this unlock your luck, specifically on November 27, when the colour green will also serve as a token of good fortune.

Ox

Those born in the year of the Ox (1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021) will find that their luck on November 29 has “everything to do with intellect”. Valeria urged those affiliated with the Ox to trust their intellect and instincts and seek out their lucky colours: red, purple and white. She said: “When you do, luck will flow to you in the most unexpected ways”. 

Tiger

People born in the Year of the Tiger (1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022) will find their luck on November 11, and it will be deeply centred on their love life. Valeria warned that the true essence of love should be separated from toxic experiences to show yourself that love does exist. Do this and seek the steel colour this month, and “your luck will bloom”, said the astrologer.

Rabbit

Luck this month for those born in the Year of the Rabbit (1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011, 2023) is heavily tied to family and long-standing traditions. The astrologer said that luck might present “in mysterious ways” (and through the colour blue) on November 12, but there is “long term potential” in the successes that come of it.

Dragon

Valeria urged: “Dragon, has hesitation blocked luck from flowing into your life? When you stay in your comfort zone over trying something new or walking down a path essential for your personal growth, you prevent yourself from discovering luck.” Those born in the Year of the Dragon (1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024) should try to ground themselves and shake-off the procrastination this month. Seek out the colours blue and steel that are lucky for the Dragon in November, particularly on  November 14.

Snake

According to the astrologer, those born in the year of the Snake (1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013) will create their luck this month through extreme emotion and manifestation. Valeria warned: “Be wary of wishing something out of anger that you don’t want anyone to experience.” The colours red (particularly in shoes) and pink will be luck this month, with the Snake’s luckiest day on November 9.

Horse

On November 8, those born in the year of the Horse (1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014) will make no mistakes. Even those made will be insignificant or spark a new trend within the collective. The Tarot reader said: “Send your gratitude into the ether for the same to help keep the channels of positivity open much beyond November. The colours green, yellow, violet, and pink will be lucky for you this month.”

Goat

People born in the year of the Goat (1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015) share a lucky day with the Horse on November 8. The astrologer suggested that this luck will be “slow to unfold”, so those born in the Year of the Goat should find out what is at the heart of the luck they seek. The colour purple is lucky this month.

Monkey

Though their luckiest day was on November 2, the colour red remains luck all month for people born in the year of the Monkey (1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016). Valeria suggested it’s best to focus on your own heart and wants, even though they may be blocked by those close to you. When this happens, luck will “show itself like never before”, she said.

Rooster

Roosters (born in 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017) will have “strong and steady” luck this month. Valeria says their luckiest day occurred on November 1, with the colours pink and purple luck this month. She said: “This luck will pave the path for an easy experience in love, so lean into this, and you will transform your life in meaningful ways.”

Dog

The Tarot reader urged those born in the year of the Dog (1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018) to force past opposition to achieve whatever they have chosen as their main life or career path. The luckiest day for this zodiac was November 1, but journalling and seeking the colours blue and violet will “bolster” the successes of this luck.

Pig

Valeria said: “Patience will help you tap into your luck and make the most of the month. Your luck will sparkle in and out randomly, sometimes bringing you good friends, other times a good conversation or meal, or knowledge of an opportunity.” People born in the following Pig years (1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019) will find the colours rose gold, purple, and pink to be lucky this month – specifically on November 10.
