Chinese Astrology - Year of the Dragon

by

taoism.jpgPersons born within these date ranges can be said to have been born in the “year of the Dragon,” while also bearing the following elemental sign:

16 February 1904 - 3 February 1905: Wood Dragon
3 February 1916 - 22 January 1917: Fire Dragon
23 January 1928 - 9 February 1929: Earth Dragon
8 February 1940 - 26 January 1941: Metal Dragon
27 January 1952 - 13 February 1953: Water Dragon
13 February 1964 - 1 February 1965: Wood Dragon
31 January 1976 - 17 February 1977: Fire Dragon
17 February 1988 - 5 February 1989: Earth Dragon
5 February 2000 - 23 January 2001: Metal Dragon
2012 - 2013: Water Dragon
2024 - 2025: Wood Dragon

Strong and protective, dragons often decorate doorways and rooftops to help keep away demons from those inside. People born under this sign often show the same power that the dragon holds, taking advantage of what is often considered a lucky life.

This power is matched only by the dragon’s interest in the world around him/her. Vibrant and full of life, the world notices the dragon just as much as the dragon notices the world. With all this attention, though, it is easy for the dragon to become arrogant and pompous. After all, who wouldn’t when the whole world seems to take notice?

Dragons and those who know dragons should take special care to notice the demanding tendencies of the dragon. The world occasionally has other interests, and that doesn’t always sit well with the dragon.

With all this energy and potential surrounding it, the dragon can achieve many wonderful things if s/he simply learns to harness that energy and put it to good use.

Remember to refer to this post for information about what your element and yin or yang mean in accordance to your sign.
