Chinese Zodiac is a doctrine which dates back to
more than two thousand years. It is based on the lunar cycle, which is believed
to determine the zodiac sign a person is born under (as per his year of birth).
Each zodiac has been given distinct set of attributes that contribute largely
towards the personality of the individual born in it.
The
Chinese Zodiac is composed of 12 different animal signs. Which group you fall
into depends on your birth date. Many people believe that people who are
compatible with one another share compatible Zodiac signs. While it is
impossible to neither confirm nor deny this, many people still hold the Zodiac
and its 12 signs to a very high regard. There are a total of 12 Chinese Zodiac signs, each of which
relates to a different animal. Below is a list of the animal signs, and their
associated personalities and attitudes.
