Chinese zodiac sign

Each of the 12 years in the Chinese zodiac cycle is represented by an animal associated with five elemental signs. The animals are:

Zi (rat)

Chou (ox)

Yin (tiger)

Mao (rabbit)

Chen (dragon)

Si (snake)

Wu (horse)

Wei (sheep)

Shen (monkey)

You (rooster)

Xu (dog)

Hai (boar/pig)

The zodiac traditionally starts with the Year of the Rat and cycles continuously. These animal signs are calculated in accordance with the Chinese calendar, which is lunisolar and predates the Gregorian calendar. The Chinese calendar is based on exact astronomical observances of the sun’s longitude and the moon’s phases.

How the Chinese Calendar works

Zodiac animal and human connections

According to the Chinese zodiac, your birth year tells you more than just your age. It is believed that there is a special relationship between people and the animals in the Chinese zodiac. This belief, which can be traced back to the Han Dynasty (206 BCE – 220 CE), is based on the idea that one's personality is affected by the animal their birth year is associated with.

It is also believed that some relationships are more compatible than others depending on one’s zodiac (like the western astrological zodiac based on months). Unlike the western zodiac, the Chinese zodiac animals are not associated with constellations.

There are also 5 elements in the zodiac associated with the animals and their personalities:

Wood

Earth

Fire

Water

Metal

The zodiac of twelve animal signs represents twelve different types of personality.

The following are the twelve zodiac signs in order and their characteristics.^[2]

The zodiac of twelve animal signs represents twelve different types of personality. The zodiac traditionally begins with the sign of the Rat, and there are many stories about the Origins of the Chinese Zodiac which explain why this is so (see below). The following are the twelve zodiac signs in order and their characteristics.^[2]
Each of the 12 animals are governed by an element plus a Yin Yang Direction.
Rat (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Water).
Ox (Water buffalo in Vietnam), (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Water).
Tiger (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Rabbit (Cat in Vietnam) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Dragon (Snail in Kazakhstan) (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Wood).
Snake (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Horse (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Ram (Goat in Vietnam) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Fire).
Monkey (Yang, 1st Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Rooster (Yin, 2nd Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Dog (Yang, 3rd Trine, Fixed Element Metal).
Pig (Wild boar in Japan) (Yin, 4th Trine, Fixed Element Water).
The animal signs assigned by year represent what others perceive you as being or how you present yourself. It is a common misconception that the animals assigned by year are the only signs, and many western descriptions of Chinese astrology draw solely on this system. In fact, there are also animal signs assigned by month, day, and hours of the day. The combination of one's birth year, month, day and hour are a part of the 'four pillars' of Chinese astrology which determine one's fate.
To sum it up, while a person might appear to be a dragon because they were born in the year of the dragon, they might also be a snake based on their birth month and an ox based on their birthday and a Ram based on their birth hour.
