Years of the Zodiac.

Unlike the Western Zodiac, where our stars are worked out on the Solar cycle, the Chinese work their Zodiac out on a Lunar scale. For this reason their dates for the start of an Aminals cycle doesn’t start on January 1st of each year.

For example,1996, is the year of the Rat, but if you were born on or before February 18th, then you are in fact a Pig. This is because the start of the Year of the Rat in 1996 is February 19th.
