What is the Chinese Zodiac?
The Chinese zodiac is a 12-year cycle, with each year represented by a different animal: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.
Your Chinese zodiac sign reveals personality traits, compatible relationships, and lucky attributes. Combined with the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water), it creates a 60-year cycle for detailed astrological readings.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find my Chinese zodiac sign?
Your Chinese zodiac sign is determined by your birth year. If you were born in January or February, check whether your birthday falls before or after Chinese New Year, as your sign may be from the previous year.
What are the Five Elements?
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water cycle through each zodiac animal, creating a 60-year grand cycle. Your birth year's element adds nuance to your animal sign.
What is 2026 in Chinese astrology?
2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse. Chinese New Year 2026 begins on February 17, 2026.
“Chinese astrology operates on a completely different logic to Western astrology — it's based on years, not months, and the Moon, not the Sun. Your Chinese zodiac animal reveals your social instincts and the way you navigate power, while your element adds the texture of how you do it.”
