Chinese horoscope and lucky numbers.

At the foundation of the Chinese horoscope there are 5 elements: fire, water, metal, wood and earth, also a cycle of 12 years.

Each year of the Chinese horoscope is associated with a certain animal. Such horoscopes are popular not only in China, but also in Korea, Vietnam, Japan and Thailand.




The roots of the Chinese horoscope reach far back into ancient times. There are two versions of why the Chinese horoscope has survived to this day and looks exactly like that.

Even in the distant 206 BC, during the era of the Han dynasty, animals were chosen and arranged in that certain order. There’s a legend about the 12 animals that came to say goodbye to Buddha who left the earth. Here is the list and order: the year of the Monkey, the year of the Rat, the year of the Bull, the year of the Tiger, the year of the Rabbit, the year of the Dragon, the year of the Snake, the year of the Horse, the year of the Sheep, the year of the Rooster, the year of the Dog, and the year of the Pig. Though the modern astrologists tell us that animals are associated with the cycle of Jupiter, which in those years was known to the astronomers.

As astrologists say, the years that relate to each animal have a certain influence on wellbeing, wealth and fortune.

The culture of ancient China says that everyone has their own lucky numbers. There are also three virtues: wellbeing, luck and longevity. A person’s lucky numbers given to them at birth can fortify each of them.
