It includes the Rat, the Ox, the Tiger, the Rabbit, the Dragon, the Snake, the Horse, the sheep, the Monkey, the Rooster, the Dog, and the Pig. Each animal sign symbolizes unique traits and characteristics. These signs play a crucial role in various cultural practices and personal identity.

Each zodiac sign has its own characteristics and personality tendencies. For example, those born in the year of the Rat are usually witty, intelligent, and flexible, while those born in the year of the Ox are hardworking, down-to-earth, and stable. Those born in the year of the Tiger are independent and forge ahead bravely, in contrast, individuals of the Rabbit sign are gentle, considerate, and meticulous. Those born in the year of the Dragon usually have grand ideals and ambitions, while those born in the year of the Snake are clever, cunning, and adept at navigating changes. Those born in the year of the Horse are full of energy and enthusiasm, while those born in the year of the Sheep are gentle, kind, and compassionate.

Apart from personality traits, Chinese zodiac signs are also believed to influence a person’s energy aura. In traditional culture, each Chinese Zodiac Sign has its own auspicious days, known as ‘lucky days’, and acting on these lucky days often leads to good fortune and success. As a result, many people plan their activities and select special occasions based on their own or others’ Chinese zodiac signs.

The Chinese zodiac signs are a part of traditional culture, representing a person’s characteristics and life path. Although modern science cannot prove the influence of the Chinese zodiac signs, their importance in culture remains significant, and many people still choose when to act and where to go based on their own or others’ Chinese zodiac signs.
