Chinese astrology has become one of the aspects that most people have a fascination for nowadays. As we all know, this has been going on since the ancient times, and has been rooted on early myths and legends. The concept of the twelve animal signs works hand in hand with the five elements and forms a cycle of sixty years. The animals represent the years that people are born. Chinese astrology believes that the characteristics of these animals are given to the people who are born in the years that they represent.


As how all stories go, there are existing tales which govern the twelve animals of the zodiac. Probably the most famous is about the invitation of these animals to a race. The first twelve beings that will finish the race will be rewarded with a spot in zodiac. The animals that came first in the race are the rat, followed by the ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and lastly, the pig.


The first animal in Chinese astrology is the rat. Individuals who are born under the Rat sign are considered to be inventive, charming and intelligent but they can be very extravagant. People who are born under this sign are compatible with people born under the signs of Dragon, Monkey and Ox.

They get along with those who are born under the sign of the Monkey.  People born under the sign of the Snake are also very passionate and intense in everything that they do.
