What Is the Chinese Zodiac?
The Chinese zodiac is a 12-sign system based on birth year, with each sign corresponding to one of the Twelve Earthly Branches.
The Earthly Branches are also used in the year, month, day, and hour pillars of a BaZi chart.
The Chinese zodiac is often used to explore general personality traits and basic relationships between two zodiac signs, such as combination, clash, punishment, harm, and break.
