I am a fire rabbit: 2017 has been fairly steady for me but I am having a hard time with my studies.

Steven,
This year is your’ opposite year. So I’m not surprised abut your studies frustrating you. Yes she is wiser than you with her finances, because she was born in a year with Earth element. And this particular astrological element has invented wise investments. Actually she is a good person, with lots of qualities. My astrological advice is to let her find a compatible man (like Metal Monkey born 1980). When a rabbit approaches, the dragon loses its luster. You need to find a woman born in 1995 (Wood Pig). She would be your best match. The only good thing in your present relationship is that she can benefit from you. Also she has to be in charge. Remember Hyacinth, from the famous British TV Comedy “Keeping up appearances”? Good luck to both of you.
