Three Chinese zodiac signs are set to see success and good fortune in the week of November 16 to 22, according to YourTango's senior horoscopes and zodiac signs editor Aria Gmitter. Gmitter describes Monday and Sunday as somewhat difficult days, while the rest of the week is considered fortunate. She advises against wasteful activities on Monday, noting that focusing on non-negotiable tasks will yield the best results on what she calls a Danger Day.

For the Monkey, Gmitter identifies Wednesday, November 18, as the luckiest day of the week, describing it as a Fire Monkey Day that brings extra motivation. She says anyone who has wanted to start a small business may find their ideas beginning to come together on that day. Gmitter recommends remaining open to celestial nudges throughout the week, especially on Wednesday, because the Monkey is ready to act quickly. She writes that money may arrive or an invitation to earn extra income may come, and that a deal could be closed or a promise made with full intention to keep it.

Gmitter cautions that narrow focus will serve success best, since distraction is easy on Monday, which she calls a Wood Horse Danger Day. Activities that appear simple can later feel like a drain on time, so she strongly advises using a schedule and sticking to it. The Monkey may feel ready for a day off by Friday, and completing tasks early in the week allows time to enjoy those accomplishments. Gmitter says the week may feel short for the Monkey and that their actions can make or break the entire month, adding that facing one's shadow side is required but that playing one's cards right brings a win.

For the Horse, Monday is a Danger Day in its own sign, falling in Wood and involving something likely begun earlier in the month. Gmitter warns that it may feel like no progress is being made, though progress is occurring, and advises against pushing too hard out of anxiety toward a goal. She counsels care with anger and anything that produces anxiety. Tuesday is also a Wood Day but brings signs of success, Wednesday can be a day to cash in luck and experience success, and the rest of the week suits planning for the future, with Sunday an opportunity to set aside what was disliked and begin the final week of November with a clean slate.

The Dog is described as living for the weekend, with the week of November 16 feeling special as a project closes and a strong impression is made on others. Monday sets the tone, and Gmitter writes that the Dog may feel like giving up or quitting but should not, since the moment serves as a wake-up call about the cost of success, making the eventual fortune sweeter. Results are likely to appear on Wednesday, whether through money or permission to do something desired, and the Dog feels optimistic by Thursday with greater freedom to accomplish goals. Friday is named the day to truly enjoy what has been accomplished.
