Chinese Zodiac — Quick Answers
The questions people ask most about the 12 Chinese zodiac signs.
What are the Chinese zodiac signs and years?
The 12 Chinese zodiac signs are Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. Recent years: Rat 2020, Ox 2021, Tiger 2022, Rabbit 2023, Dragon 2024, Snake 2025, Horse 2026, Goat 2027. Your sign follows your birth year — but the year turns at Chinese New Year (late January to mid-February), not January 1. Enter any birthday in the chart box above and the engine resolves your exact sign, element, and stem instantly.
How do I find my Chinese zodiac sign and element?
Type your birth date into the form at the top of this page and press My Zodiac Sign. The calculator checks the exact Chinese New Year boundary of your birth year (the #1 mistake in zodiac lookup), then returns your animal, fixed element, yin-yang polarity, and heavenly stem. January and February birthdays need this check most — born before the New Year, you belong to the previous year's animal.
Is there a Chinese zodiac compatibility calculator?
Yes — the free compatibility calculator on this site scores any two signs instantly: 78 animal pairs from love to friendship to work, with the traditional trine (three-harmony) and six-clash logic explained for each match. No sign-up, results in your browser.
What is the difference between Chinese zodiac and Western zodiac?
The Western zodiac divides the year by the sun's path into 12 month-long star signs; the Chinese zodiac assigns one animal to an entire year in a 12-year cycle, layered with five elements for a 60-year rhythm. Western reads your birth month; Chinese reads your birth year (and in BaZi, the month, day, and hour too). The two systems share almost no machinery — different symbols, different math.
What is a BaZi chart calculator?
A BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny) calculator converts your birth date, time, and place into eight characters — four pillars of a heavenly stem and earthly branch — mapping your element balance and 10-year luck cycles. The free BaZi calculator on this site adds true solar time correction, an element radar, and a chart you can paste into ChatGPT or Claude for a deeper AI reading.
