Calculate My Chinese Astrology
Each hour, day, month, and year correlate to one of twelve animals in the Chinese Zodiac so that each person has an astrology chart made up of four animal signs, one for their hour, day, month, and year.
There are both lunar and solar-based Chinese calendar systems, so you will find differences in the starting and ending dates of certain years and months between different sources’ calendars depending on whether you are looking at a solar or lunar calendar or one that combines both.
