More about Zodiac Animal

What is the Chinese Zodiac animal and why does it play such an important role in the Asian culture? The Chinese Zodiac consists of 12 animals: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Boar. Depending on the year you are born, you will be assigned one of these animals, or better known as the "Chinese Zodiac animal signs."

Each of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals or Chinese zodiac symbols supposedly represents the individual's innate traits and characteristics from birth. Therefore, the Asian culture tends to "rely" on these traits and characteristics to foresee one's future--whether it relates to wealth, career, love, personality, compatibility, and so forth. These conceptual ideas about the Chinese zodiac animal, or Chinese zodiac animal signs, or Chinese zodiac symbol can either be "interesting" or just plain "strange" to the Western world.

Believe it or not but many of the arranged marriages in the old Chinese history, as well the current modern day Chinese practices, are solely determined by the Chinese zodiac sign and compatibility factor. The belief is that each Zodiac animal or Zodiac animal sign has a unique set of compatible traits and characteristics that are deemed a good fit and will get along, or vice versa.
