🔎 Did you know?

In Chinese astrology, the calendar is lunar, so the New Year takes place every year on the day of the first lunation (usually between January and February). Your Chinese sign depends on your month and year of birth. Babies born on or after February 17, 2026, will be of the Horse sign.

Compatibility of Chinese Zodiac Signs: Which are the Winning Duos?

Each Chinese zodiac sign possesses its distinct personality and characteristics, shaping its essence both in life and romantic pursuits. Chinese zodiac compatibility enables you to ascertain with which other Chinese zodiac signs you will forge exceptional harmony and create an ideal partnership. We invite you, therefore, to discover which astrological signs you are most profoundly aligned with, as well as those you must unequivocally avoid!

The Monkey in Chinese Astrology: Who are they really?

The Monkey embodies intelligence and cleverness. Often funny and always seeking something new, it wins people over with its quick wit and natural charm. However, the Monkey also has its darker moments and can sometimes be moody and unpredictable. Let’s dive into everything you need to know about this complex and fascinating figure in Chinese astrology.

The Pig in Chinese Astrology: Who are they really?

The Pig stands out for its generosity and cheerful nature. A true lover of life, it knows how to appreciate the simple pleasures and never misses a chance to show love to those it holds dear. Let me reveal everything about the personality of the Pig zodiac sign.

The Tiger in Chinese Astrology: Discover Its Personality

Tigers are driven by movement. They need things to keep moving and avoid the monotony of a dull, routine life at all costs. Intelligent and charismatic, people are often eager to give them everything, but Tigers tend to quickly lose interest in what they’ve worked so hard to achieve. Let me tell you all about their bold and remarkable personality.

The Snake in Chinese Astrology: Discover Its Personality

Charismatic and highly attractive, the Snake has a way of captivating crowds, but often to conceal its hidden agenda. While it can be warm and welcoming, its overwhelming ambition can sometimes make it come across as arrogant or aggressive. Let me tell you everything about this majestic and mysterious creature.

The Dragon in Chinese Astrology: Discover Its Personality

Who could possibly overlook the dazzling Dragon? Magnificent and powerful, the Dragon naturally takes center stage, almost unintentionally (but only almost!). In these circumstances, how can you blame them for having just a touch of arrogance?

2026 Chinese Horoscope for the Pig: Keep Your Cool!

The energies of the Fire Horse will be unsettling for you, venerable Pig. 🐷 Your peaceful nature will be put to the test by the surrounding frenzy. Focus on your loved ones and avoid major risks. I reveal more in my 2026 Pig horoscope. Enjoy the read and Happy New Year!

2026 Chinese Horoscope for the Dog: Loyalty Rewarded!

Dear Dog friends, 2026, the Year of the Fire Horse, is shaping up to be an exceptional one for you! 🐶 Faithful, loyal, and protective, you are the Horse's natural ally, and this special bond will be your greatest asset. In my 2026 Dog horoscope, I break down exactly what the Year of the Fire Horse has in store for your love life, career, finances, health, and luck. Enjoy the read!

The principles of Chinese astrology: cycles, elements...

Chinese astrology amalgamates various astral data, encompassing not only the day, month, and year of birth, but also the precise hour. This intricate framework facilitates the attribution of one of the twelve zodiacal signs to an individual, each sign intrinsically connected to the five elemental forces.
