The Chinese horoscope, like the Western one, consists of 12 signs, or "houses". But in contrast, each sign has a duration of 1 year, not 1 month. So, the Chinese horoscope signs are determined by the year of birth.
In China, years are calculated according to the lunar time system. Chinese New Year begins on February 1st and there are 12 animals that correspond to certain years. The year 2024 is the year of the Dragon and belongs to those born in the years: 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024.
According to the Chinese horoscope, the Dragon represents authority, prosperity and good fortune. Those born in the year of the Dragon are known for their charming demeanor, unique personality and strong leadership skills.
In Chinese culture, the Dragon occupies an important place as an auspicious and extraordinary creature, unparalleled in talent and excellence. It symbolizes power, nobility, honor, luck and success. Consequently, the year 2024 is predicted to bring opportunities, changes and challenges. If you are looking for a change in your current life, this year may offer a favorable chance.
