Dragons’ Den
Chinese New Year is being celebrated across the globe as the Year of the Dragon starts on 10 February 2024.
The forecast is a year of fortune for those born in the Year of the Dragon together with their compatible signs.
If you believe in Chinese astrology, it’s going to be a great year at Motorfinity HQ with 7 Dragons in the den and their most compatible sign, the Monkey, leading the horde.
What to Expect from Dragons
Dragons are the movers and shakers of the world – courageous and fearless leaders who’ll never back down from any challenge.
As natural leaders, they have an infectious enthusiasm for life - ambitious, visionary, full of vitality, and powerful with a keen sense of self.
Confident, they do everything to the best of their ability with high standards.
When their interest is piqued, Dragons are almost tireless in their drive to know everything about their chosen field and get to the top.
They believe in making the world a better place as advocates and pioneers.
Striving towards lofty ideals, they like to benefit their community.
Contrary to many mythical legends, Dragons are kind and bring good luck.
