The Chinese zodiac years chart helps you accurately identify your zodiac animal according to the Chinese lunar calendar. Since the lunar calendar doesn’t align perfectly with the Gregorian calendar, the start and end dates of each zodiac year vary.
For example, 2025 is the Chinese zodiac Snake year, beginning on January 29, 2025, and ending on February 16, 2026.
At BTA Feng Shui, we use the Chinese zodiac years to explore the energy of each birth year—revealing personality insights, luck cycles, and relationship harmony based on traditional Chinese astrology.

How to Find Your Chinese Zodiac Sign
To determine your Chinese zodiac sign, locate your birth year in the chart above. Pay attention to the exact dates, as the Chinese New Year does not align perfectly with the Gregorian calendar. For example:
- If you were born on January 15, 2014, your zodiac sign is Snake (Year of the Snake: February 10, 2013 – January 30, 2014), not Horse.
- If you were born on February 5, 2014, your zodiac sign is Horse (Year of the Horse: January 31, 2014 – February 18, 2015).
Each zodiac sign is tied to specific personality traits. For instance:
- Rat: Clever, resourceful, and adaptable.
- Tiger: Brave, confident, and competitive.
- Dragon: Ambitious, energetic, and charismatic.
- Snake: Wise, intuitive, and charming.
