Your Chinese Astrology Animal and Element

Your Chinese Astrology Animal
and Element

Each animal in Chinese astrology is modified by each of the five elements or phases (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water). This forms an overall sixty-year cycle, known as chia-tzu.

During each cycle, smaller increments of time defined as the Twelve Earthly Branches and Ten Celestial stems combine with the signs of the astrology to determine the Lunar New Year and other special dates on the Chinese calendar. Thus, this is Lunar year, 4709, the Year of the Water Dragon.

To find your animal and element, find your birth date below in the Lunar Year.
