It’s that time of year to look up this year’s predictions for your Chinese zodiac sign, especially for your love life. If your prediction says that you will find love this year, find out which zodiac sign is meant for you. 

Instead of pairing Chinese zodiac signs together, we’ve decided to recommend you potential zodiac matches based off your astrology sign. Let’s be real: most of us are more familiar with the fact that we are Scorpios and Geminis than whether we are Wood Pigs or Metal Snakes. Finding love shouldn’t have to be a math exercise after all!

1. Aquarius (20 January to 18 February) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Horse 

Since Aquarians typically love freedom, horses are the best match for them. Known as the life of the party, horses know how to live freely and can easily keep up with the wildness of an Aquarius. Horses also enjoy seeking out new experiences, which can keep an Aquarius on their toes. There’s never a boring day in this relationship!

2. Pisces (19 February to 20 March) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Goat 

Pisces’ should look for someone who will take care of them as much as they take care of others. The empathetic nature of a goat means they will always put others before themselves, which parallels the same tendencies in a Pisces. 

Both zodiacs also have a strong artistic sense, so you can look forward to planning dates that allow you to unleash your creativity together. 

3. Aries (21 March to 19 April) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Monkey 

As one of the most powerful signs, Arieses need someone who can easily keep up with them, such as those born in the year of the Monkey. Monkeys are extremely fast learners and can easily adapt, complimenting Aries’ fiery passion. Since Arieses tend to be very ambitious, the curious traits of a Monkey will push the fire sign to go along with every one of their ambitions. 

4. Taurus (20 April to 20 May) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Rooster  

Do you value practicality in a romantic relationship? If you do, you’d be most compatible with the Rooster. As detail-oriented and hardworking individuals, they constantly strive for perfection, so they need someone like a Taurus to ground them. Additionally, Roosters are also very self-assured, which reassures a Taurus’ need for comfort and stability. 

5. Gemini (21 May to 21 June) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Dog 

Dogs aren’t named man’s best friend for no reason. They are extremely sociable, loyal, and trustworthy which will go hand-in-hand with social butterflies like Geminis. Even though some people may say that Geminis have split personalities, those born in the year of the Dog can handle them by being a constant companion to depend on.  

6. Cancer (22 June to 22 July) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Pig 

Out of all the astrology zodiac signs, Cancers are known to be the most sensitive. Nurturing and compassionate, they tend to put the happiness of others above their own, so they need a partner that’s equally in touch with their emotions. Those born in the year of the Pig are very kind-hearted and will always help those in need, so they will be your shoulder to cry on when you feel like your emotions are getting too overwhelming.  

7. Leo (23 July to 22 August)

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Rat

This natural pairing of the Rat and a Leo is bound to exude major rizz since both zodiacs are known to be naturally charming. Rats are also very intelligent and resourceful, so couple that with the leadership skills of a Leo, and there’s a couple that will be sure to get stuff done. This is the team you want to take on any tasks that need to be completed ASAP. 

8. Virgo (23 August to 22 September)

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Ox 

Virgos, if you’re tired of giving your all only to receive nothing in return, look for those born in the year of the Ox. Oxes have a strong work ethic and can always be relied on, which means Virgos can trust them to hold up their end of the deal. In this relationship, both of you can have faith that you will honour and respect each other’s time wholeheartedly. 

9. Libra (23 September to 23 October)

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Tiger

Libras are considered to be hopeless romantics who love being in a relationship. They always find balance in life through companionship and are attracted to partners who will sweep them off their feet. Since romantic gestures can be hard to pull off, Libras need a significant other who’s willing to take up that challenge, such as those born in the year of the Tiger. As thrill seekers, they are also courageous and are always willing to try new things to keep their partners satisfied. 

10. Scorpio (24 October to 21 November)

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Rabbit

Scorpios are very passionate and captivating towards those around them, so they will easily catch the keen eye of the Rabbit. Rabbits are drawn towards things they consider beautiful, such as the aura of a Scorpio. In this case, opposites attract because compared to the intensity and passion a Scorpio possesses, Rabbits are more gentle and quiet. A match made in heaven if you ask us. 

11. Saggitarius (22 November to 21 December)

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Dragon

Saggitariuses are forever optimists with a philosophical outlook on life. As a result, they will be most compatible with the Dragon because Dragons represent power and are not afraid to pursue their dreams, no matter the cost. Sagittariuses always aim to try something new so they will be more than willing to follow their Dragon partner to help them achieve their dreams. 

12. Capricorn (22 December to 19 January) 

Most compatible Chinese Zodiac: Snake

This partnership between a Capricorn and a Snake is an intellectual one, as both signs are known for being wise and deep thinkers. Persevering and ambitious, Capricorns aren’t easily fazed by responsibility, so Snakes can rely on them to take charge of the relationship. Moreover, it’s the year of the snake this CNY, so this relationship will have extra huat since Snakes are among the luckiest signs.

The post These Are The Most Compatible Chinese Zodiacs For Your Star Sign appeared first on ZULA.sg.

On my 20th birthday, I promised myself that I was going to try to step out of my comfort zone more. And yet, one of my biggest fears is doing things alone. Couple that with being an introvert, and it’s safe to say that stepping out of my comfort zone and into a dating party is not my idea of a great time. However, when the opportunity came up to attend Until 11.11, the viral numerology dating party in Singapore, I decided to follow through with my promise and seize the opportunity. 

The Until 11.11 dating parties were going viral on TikTok and Instagram because of how it includes numerology in the matchmaking process, and for being so exclusive that previously only a few people could get in. This time, the event was open to the public, which made access easier.

Dating parties have been on the rise in Singapore this year as many Gen Z and millennials are seeking more in-person avenues to meet their next partner, rather than swiping on a screen. Most of the dating parties we see today use AI or personality quizzes to match up their attendees, but Until 11.11 sets itself apart by returning to the ancient art of numerology to help you find your match.

I spoke to the founder, Ching, 22, who told me that she started these parties because she wanted to create opportunities for people who had the potential to maintain long-term relationships to find one another. 

Her interest in numerology started when her polytechnic lecturer, who also happened to be a retired numerology master, taught her how to calculate numerology for people. Once she learned the skill,she explained that numerology helped her leave a less-than-ideal relationship, and to better understand her romantic priorities. She wanted to offer numerology as a tool to help other people, so she started Until 11.11.  

What happened during the party

The party was held at an event space in Ang Mo Kio. Once I registered by getting my name tag and giving them my birthday and astrology sign, I was free to get a drink and mingle until the party formally started. 

Ching and I talked for a bit about ourselves and what to expect during the parties—some icebreakers, opportunities to mingle around and get your numerology read. 

Ching was a very amiable host. She could tell that I was more introverted, so she helped introduce me to some of the other attendees, who happened to be returning attendees. When I asked some of them why they wanted to return, they said they simply thought the event was fun. This made me less anxious. Instead, I looked forward to the activities in store for us.

The queue to get your numerology read was also open, so I decided to snag a queue number before more people arrived. Contrary to my impression of the dating party, getting your numerology read was an optional activity rather than something used to matchmake participants. Still, I was game to see what insights numerology could offer about my love life. 

Numerology is the study of numbers done with the belief that they have special importance in people’s lives. At Until 11.11, your reading is calculated using your Chinese birthday. During your 5-minute reading, the expert will tell you what your dating prospects are like. With this knowledge, you can decide for yourself whether you will meet your person at a party like this. 

I’m not fully Chinese, nor do I understand the language, so this was slightly confusing for me because I did not know how to read the Chinese calendar. Nevertheless, the expert helped me discern the right date. Personally, using my Chinese birthday didn’t affect the clarity of the reading and my learnings.

An hour into the party, more people started to arrive and things got livelier. The event organisers gave a quick introduction about the party and the activities they had lined up for us, starting with some icebreakers. 

For the first icebreaker, we were given a list of horoscope signs and were tasked to find strangers whose horoscope signs matched the ones on the list. This reminded me of CCA general meetings where we would play human bingo to try to get to know as many people as possible. Next, we played “This or That”, where the organisers asked questions such as “Indoors or Outdoors” before levelling up to deeper questions such as “Would you be okay if your partner earned less than you?”.

After playing the games, we were separated into groups based on our horoscope’s element signs—air, water, earth or fire to play more icebreakers.

Once we completed those icebreakers, we gathered into smaller groups for the next activity. We were given a stack of cards with a relationship question on one side, and a political one on the other. We answered 3 rounds of questions before the organisers just shuffled us around. 

Though most people seemed to be into the icebreakers, the majority of the attendees still preferred to mingle around on their own. For me, the icebreakers were reminiscent of orientation camp, which weirdly was nice to experience—a throwback, of sorts.  

After this activity, we were free to do anything we wanted. Some people engaged in deeper conversations, some got their readings done, and some got more drinks. There was also a futsal table in the event space so I played a few very intense rounds of futsal with other attendees, and I surprisingly won a few rounds!   

At 11:10, they started to make us gather so that we could collectively make a wish at 11:11. In numerology, 11:11 is seen as a significant time for an event to occur, most commonly known as an “angel number”. 

Angel numbers are repetitive number sequences believed to be messages from the spiritual realm to confirm that you’re on the right path or to shed some light on a difficult situation. Whether you believe in this or not, you have to admit that it’s pretty satisfying to see a pattern of repetitive numbers. 

Though I don’t subscribe to angel numbers, it was pretty magical for everyone to collectively make a wish at 11:11. 

What I learnt about numerology and astrology 

Before attending the party, I confess that I was a complete sceptic about numerology. Though I’m still not completely sold, I learnt a lot during the experience.

For example, I realised that numerology was derived from the concept of astrology and that Ching considered it to be a science. While there are a lot of arguments about whether astrology and numerology are legitimate sciences, I have to admit that the reading that I got at the party made sense when considering the trajectory of my life so far. 

The numerology master, Rick, has 15 years of experience so it’s safe to say that he knows what he’s doing. During my reading, he told me that I was very emotional and needed to slow down so I don’t push myself too hard, which I completely agreed with as someone who loves being busy. My dating prospects, however, were a punch to the gut.  He told me that it would be quite difficult for me to find The One because I wasn’t very lucky in life and that my romantic prospects might not always have the best intentions. 

It wasn’t all bad though, because he mentioned that I’m a very creative person and I’m definitely in the correct industry, which made me happy to hear. Overall, the reading was quite fascinating for me as I learnt a lot about myself and my life, even if I’m choosing to take some of the information with a pinch of salt. 

What to expect at an Until 11.11 dating party

If you’re looking to attend a similar event in the future, here are some things to consider. Firstly, manage your expectations. The chances of you meeting the love of your life at these parties are pretty low. While it is a great way to meet people organically, you are more likely to find friends rather than a significant other. 

Secondly, if you’re afraid of going to an event like this alone, don’t be. You’ll be able to make some new friends and meet people who are willing to “adopt” you for the night so that you have a group to hang out with. The attendees are extremely friendly and outgoing, especially once the icebreakers start.

Lastly, if you don’t believe in astrology and numerology, the event could still be fun for you. Getting your numerology read is an optional activity so if that’s not something you’re into, you can just use it as a fun opportunity to meet new people and have meaningful conversations with them. 

What I experienced at the viral numerology dating party in Singapore

If I only had one piece of advice for people on the fence about attending the Until 11.11 numerology dating party in Singapore, I would say to just go for it. It’s a fun way to meet new people you’d otherwise not cross paths with, akin to orientation camps. Plus, you get a numerology reading as part of the package, so who knows? Maybe you could learn something new about yourself.

I Went To A Dating Party For Gen Zs, And Here’s Why I Won’t Be Going Again

The post I Went To The TikTok Viral Numerology Dating Party—Was The Experience Legit? appeared first on ZULA.sg.

For most of my life, astrology was a fun read, consulted only when I needed to “Click Here To Find Out If Your Star Sign Is Compatible With Your Crush!”

But in the past year, I joined the increasing ranks of millennials who have taken to astrology faster than the PSI rose over the weekend. I found my attraction to reading horoscopes puzzling because I’m that person who needs receipts for everything.

Though there is no evidence that astrology influences your personality, the new age practice does have its own reasoning.

For the uninitiated, you have to factor where the sun, moon and planets are positioned at the moment of your birth to generate your unique chart. Astrologers then interpret the interactions between the celestial orbs to determine how they influence your life.

To get a better understanding of astrology and the growing millennial interest in it, I decided to pay astrologer May Sim a visit.

Saturn Return and why your late twenties is a #struggle

Selfstrology Academy office

One of the first things May says to me is, “You are not an adult yet.”

The International Academy of Astrology graduate explains it’s because I’ve not completed my Saturn Return.

Astrologers believe your first Saturn Return is your astrological coming of age. The planet takes 29.5 years to return to its original position at the time of your birth. With its return, Saturn allegedly brings a period of transition and (often painful) changes, which causes you to examine if your life, career and relationships are going as you wished they would.

For the 34-year-old, the period leading to her Saturn Return saw her quitting her high-paying height safety consultancy management job. In turn, May decided to pursue her interest in teaching and doing astrology consultations.

Unbeknown to her then, she set up Selfstrology Academy—her career transformation astrology firm—on the exact day of her Saturn Return.

Why astrology can be like therapy

What a birth chart looks like

Since she started reading charts at 18, May has seen more than 2,000 people. Now, her clients range from those in their early 20s to late 60s. There is an even male-female divide. Their jobs range from a special needs education teacher to CEOs in the finance sectors.

“If you want to know if it’s accurate, we never have complaints,” May says.

A consultation involves May analysing her clients’ chart to “see what’s causing, and be aware of, their problems.” Subsequently, she introduces new thought patterns to shift their perspectives.

In some sense, May likens the job of an astrology consultant to a therapist’s; she helps clients make peace with their decisions but does not advise them.

“One of my clients, a young lady, asked me if [she] should marry her boyfriend [who had been cheating on her]. From the chart, I could tell she has a thing of equating a relationship to monetary benefits.”

Upon further probing, the client revealed a willingness to turn a blind eye to her boyfriend’s philandering because his family was giving her a monthly clothing stipend of $1,500. The client was also promised an apartment in Shanghai if they were to marry.

The client’s chart suggested she had learnt these values from her parents. True enough, the client disclosed that her father had been caught cheating years ago. Her grandparents had moved her parents into a landed property and gave her mother a mahjong allowance to keep mum about the affair.

“I was able to show her that she was not happy with how her parents conducted the marriage. Now, she has a choice: [does she] want to sell [herself] into a marriage or demand for a committed relationship?”

Role of astrology in everyday life

May featured in a previous newspaper interview

I ask May what she thinks is astrology’s role in everyday life, as well as her thoughts on the renewed interest in astrology amongst millennials.

She stresses astrology is merely a framework to understanding life. Astrology should only be consulted when you run into problems and need clarity to improve a situation.

“What I like about modern astrology is that it gives free will back to a person. We don’t care about things like fate and destiny anymore because we believe if we can make our [own] decisions, the world is your oyster.”

“If you are born in the generation where there are a lot of outer planets in Aquarius, Aquarius is a sign that naturally relates to new age interest, something that is unconventional.”

“Young people are looking for a way to understand the world, because they have realised that conventional wisdom doesn’t work for them anymore. The alternatives are what they are looking for, and astrology gives [them] that.”

For the next two hours, May and I continue to discuss astrology’s role in religion, love and work. Leaving her office, I come to an understanding that it doesn’t matter if astrology is ‘real’ or has scientific backing; what matters is that it’s meaningful to the people who use it.

Astrology As Language To Understand Life

Through astrology, May gives her clients the language to express and organise the human experience. With terms like “Mercury in retrograde” and “your moon is in the fifth house,’” they can make sense of life’s randomness and formulate a plan to achieve what they want.

The proliferation of Instagram horoscope meme accounts and new astrology apps like Co-Star has done the same. With astrology presented in an easy-to-digest, structured and relatable way, it has become more accessible than ever.

I understand now that astrology can be a tool for self-introspection and is a medium for the social media generation to engage and understand the world they live in.

In our heart of hearts, we are all storytellers. We look for narratives to explain our lives, share our hopes and dreams, and form communities.

The people who go to May or subscribe to astrology are neither stupid nor take astrology as 100% fact.

Like the sailors of old, I believe they’re trying to pluck meaning from the stars to more easily navigate the sea of life.
