Chinese Zodiac Finder

Enter your birth year to find your Chinese zodiac animal.

Born in January or February? The Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year (usually between 21 January and 20 February), so if you were born before that date, your zodiac animal is actually the previous year's — this tool uses the simple calendar year, so double-check against the exact Chinese New Year date for your birth year if you were born in that window.

About this tool

The Chinese zodiac follows a 12-year cycle of animals, each said to carry its own traits — taken as light-hearted fun here, not a serious claim about personality.
