My husband is born May 9, 1979 and this year has started out rough already.

YP, this year is both a challenging and lucky year for your husband to develop his business according to the prediction. Cope with each challenges well and everything can go in a good direction. When his business is on a good track, he might even think about extending the business.
There might not be other servere problems bothering him this year, except health. It is suggested you pay more attention to his body condition and help him release the work pressure.
