What is my Chinese zodiac animal?

Each year is represented by one of 12 zodiac animals.

If your birthday is in January or February, your zodiac animal will be the same as the previous year. This is because the lunar calendar and the Gregorian calendar don’t exactly line up.

How to boost your luck this year

Rat

“The Rat’s luckiest trait is their quick mind,” Inbaal says. “They’re problem-solvers, charming and ambitious.” That wit will be your greatest ally in a year full of unexpected changes.

Inbaal suggests initiating new ventures before circumstances shift on their own. “Changes are certain this year, but you can write the script yourself,” she advises.

Ox

If you’re an Ox, persistence is your superpower. “Oxen are honest, diligent, and down-to-earth,” Inbaal says.

But in a year as unpredictable as this, patience is key. “Resist the temptation to commit to new routines. Things are likely to change before you can settle into them,” she explains.

Tiger

Tigers are natural leaders, and their strong, confident energy thrives on challenges. But this year, less is more.

“The Year of the Snake is exhilarating for Tigers because change makes them come alive,” Inbaal shares. “Just don’t overcomplicate things to make them more fun. Let life flow.”

Rabbit

“The Rabbit’s quick mind and vigilance make them fantastic at recalibrating plans,” says Inbaal.

Transformation is the theme of this year, but Rabbits will find it fun, even inspiring.

“Others will look to you for guidance, so share how you turn challenges into victories,” she suggests.

Dragon

Dragons are fearless and courageous, which will serve them well in the unpredictable Year of the Snake. “Your boldness shines when new paths emerge,” Inbaal notes.

But her advice? “Hide your fire until you’ve fully assessed the situation. Sometimes, strategy is more powerful than action.”

Snake

It’s your year, Snakes! “Your flexibility, wisdom, and charm make you perfectly equipped for the transformations ahead,” Inbaal says.

Her top tip? “Anticipate changes and use your intuition to stay ahead of the curve. You’re already in tune with this year’s energy.”

Horse

Horses thrive on hard work and routine, but the Snake’s dynamic energy may test their comfort zone. “Horses can feel overwhelmed by sudden challenges,” Inbaal explains.

“Lean into your perseverance and apply your core values to new situations — it’s how you’ll find balance.”

Goat

For Goats, compassion is their lucky charm. “You’re naturally harmonious and nurturing,” says Inbaal.

“This year, personal growth is a theme for everyone. Helping others navigate their transformations will bring you luck, too.”

Monkey

Monkeys love change, and their playful, witty energy makes them adaptable. “This year is lucky for Monkeys because transformation is their comfort zone,” Inbaal reveals.

“Teach others to enjoy shedding their old skin — you’ll inspire them to embrace the Snake’s energy.”

Rooster

Roosters are all about excellence, but this year’s pace may challenge their discipline. “The Year of the Snake demands flexibility,” Inbaal explains.

“Congratulate yourself for progress instead of striving for perfection. It’s about moving forward, not being the very best.”

Dog

Reliable and loyal, Dogs are the ultimate connectors. “This year’s winds of change are perfect for Dogs to forge new friendships while strengthening old ones,” Inbaal says.

“Introduce people from different parts of your life — it’s your secret superpower.”

Pig

Pigs love stability, so the Snake’s dynamic energy may feel unsettling. “Your popularity and easy-going nature mean you’ve built an incredible support network,” Inbaal notes.

“Let your friends guide you through any challenges — you don’t have to face them alone.”
