What is the Chinese Zodiac ?

It is a type of astrology that has been used for 4000 thousand years. The Chinese zodiac is based on the twelve-year cycle of the lunar calendar. Each lunar year is assigned an animal and its recognized attributes. In Chinese astrology, animal zodiac signs assigned by year represent how others perceive you.

The Chinese zodiac is calculated by dividing the person's of birth year by 12. According to the remainder of the division:

If birth year%12 = 0 the Chinese Zodiac is Monkey
If birth year%12 = 1 the Chinese Zodiac is Rooster
If birth year%12 = 2 the Chinese Zodiac is Dog
If birth year%12 = 3 the Chinese Zodiac is Pig
If birth year%12 = 4 the Chinese Zodiac is Rat
If birth year%12 = 5 the Chinese Zodiac is Ox
If birth year%12 = 6 the Chinese Zodiac is Tiger
If birth year%12 = 7 the Chinese Zodiac is Rabbit
If birth year%12 = 8 the Chinese Zodiac is Dragon
If birth year%12 = 9 the Chinese Zodiac is Snake
If birth year%12 = 10 the Chinese Zodiac is Horse
