The Chinese horoscope follows a 12-year cycle used for dating the years, and consists of 12 zodiac signs. Each of these signs is characterized by an animal and follows this sequence: the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and the pig.
The Chinese horoscope is also associated with the elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water. A person’s horoscope therefore possesses both an animal sign as well as an element. Traditional Chinese people are particular about horoscopes, and marriages are sometimes arranged according to compatible signs.
The Chinese horoscope follows the Chinese lunar calendar, so the sign changes to the next one during Chinese New Year instead of 1 January as with the Gregorian calendar.
