This Year of the Dog will be especially auspicious as it is a "Double Spring" year, the Chinese calendar equivalent to a leap year, a period during which it is considered lucky for young couples to marry.
Another fortune-teller, Alion Yeo, warned of increasing intestinal illnesses or other deadly diseases between April and May.
Unlike the rooster year, whose predicted sex scandals largely didn't materialize, the dog year would come as a complete contrast due to the strong fire element, Yeo said.
"Love will burn like fire; people will be more passionate about their relationships. There is no hiding it," he said.
