Discover the Chinese horoscope to get to know yourself a little better according to your zodiac sign and to find out what will happen to you in the future. We give you some general guidelines to understand how the Chinese horoscope works.
This is how the Chinese horoscope works
The Chinese zodiac contemplates that every year there is a leading animal. For example, 2017 is the year of the Rooster, so all those born throughout this year will feel very identified with this sign. However, it must be taken into account that this zodiac is guided by the Chinese calendar that works from the lunar cycles. In this way, the Chinese change the year about a month after us. Therefore, all those who were born before February will feel more identified with the sign of the previous year.
The sign of the zodiac to which you belong will affect the way you are and how you understand the issues that surround you. For example, those who identify with the Snake tend to be somewhat suspicious and materialistic, but they are also very graceful and wise. You should also keep in mind that not all animals have the same compatibility. For example, Rabbits get along better with Horses than with Ox.
