Chinese horoscopes are based on the interaction between your zodiac animal's fixed element (from the Earthly Branches) and the year's element (from the Heavenly Stems). The five elements — Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water — follow a productive and destructive cycle that determines how supportive or challenging a given year is for each animal.
This is a general reading based on zodiac animal and element interaction. A personalized reading based on your full Bazi (Four Pillars) birth chart — which includes year, month, day, and hour of birth — provides significantly more detail and accuracy.
