Discover Your Chinese Zodiac Sign

You can find your Chinese zodiac sign and element using our calculator above. Simply enter your birth date, and we'll tell you your zodiac animal sign and corresponding element. The five elements rotate in a specific order and combine with the animal signs to influence personality traits and fortune.

The 12 animals in order are: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

Chinese zodiac years follow a 12-year cycle, with each year represented by a different animal. The cycle repeats every 12 years, and your zodiac animal is determined by your birth year. The Chinese New Year usually falls between late January and mid-February of the Gregorian calendar.

Chinese zodiac compatibility is based on the relationship between different animal signs. Some signs naturally complement each other, while others may clash. For example, Rat and Dragon are considered highly compatible, while Tiger and Monkey may face challenges in their relationship.

Each zodiac animal has unique personality traits and characteristics. For instance, Dragons are considered confident and ambitious, Rabbits are gentle and elegant, and Tigers are brave and competitive. These traits are believed to influence the personality of people born in those years.

The Chinese zodiac calendar is a lunisolar calendar system that combines the 12 animal signs with the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) in a 60-year cycle. Each year is associated with both an animal and an element, creating unique combinations that repeat every 60 years.
