Will 2024 *finally* be my year?
Hello!
I was born in August of 2000, thus making me a metal dragon.
I had an **extremely** rough 2019 to 2021, 2022 was so-so but 2023 was extremely tough mentally (was so close to ending it all).
I'm hoping 2024 will be (at least a little bit) better in terms of career, like finding a job and finances cause god knows I've cleared my dues. Is that at all possible?
Also, can you pleasee give me tips on how to gain more luck through the year?
(I saw a comment saying wear more red so something along the lines of that?)
Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry but 2024 would be a little tough year for Dragon people as this is your Zodiac Year of Birth. Good chances can still be expected but challenges also come with them. Generally, the saying is right, and you can wear red socks, belts, pants, etc to increase your luck.

So sorry about your experience. However, this year is still not very lucky for you. Anyway, keep positive and things may get better in the next half of the year. I know hard it is to struggle with addiction. But just keep it and you will see the hope of the life. Good luck!

Tyson, I was an addict to Meth, Crack and other drugs for 14 years. You will only change when the drugs no longer serve their purpose. I am six years sober and have not looked back since. Some people survive their addiction and some don't. If you are a naturally strong person you can beat this but only when you decide when you need to change. I hope this helps.

Tyson - the fact you recognize your addiction is the first step! I was addicted to coke for a number of years but also alcohol for many years. Even though the alcohol was a low level, often more like a habit, I might just have 2 beers in the evening, but I would wake up with a headache, take aspirin, the aspirin gave me stomach and intestinal problems that I still deal with 20 years later.
Addiction can come in many forms. But you want to deal with the substances that give you the most problems first. One key factor as you wean yourself off is you actually begin to feel better physically and mentally. That is because your body has it's own intelligence that helps you heal. You body creates your own chemicals that can help you feel better and have more energy. Taking drugs and alcohol are often done to mask feelings you don't want to feel. But eventually your body shuts down it's own production of hormones. As you get sober your body will wake up and you start feeling better without the drugs. Eventually you will start to enjoy life without them. Try to keep that feeling. Don't feel bad if you slip up and go back once in a while. Just reaffirm your commitment to improving your condition one day at a time!

I'm sorry but your fortune this year is not very good. In career aspects, there are not many good chances so it may be a little hard for you to get a government job this year.

Your luck in health is better than last year. But you'd better also do something to enhance the immunity. As for the weath horoscope, it's just so-so.
