The Chinese follow a zodiac pattern that is represented by various animals. They believe that the animals also affect the characters of people, just like the western astrology signs do.
Here is what horoscope.com says about the Chinese Horoscope
Rat: This is an ideal time for a short holiday. It is good to be adventurous, but a cautious approach is best. Even if friends encourage you to do something risky, slow down and play it safe when making decisions. Give yourself time to adjust when contemplating a big change.
Ox: You may have to be very organised as you juggle work and family responsibilities. Your loyalty and interest in other people's concerns help make you a great favorite. Humour is the best way to approach people who are demanding or too full of themselves. You have nothing to prove.
Tiger: If you tell someone you are too busy, it may be like saying you don't care about them. Instead say, "It's a great idea, but right now I'm in the middle of this project. I'd love to help you when I'm done." Leave the door open and avoid hurt feelings.
Rabbit: This is a wonderful day to get out with friends or make plans for a party. Introduce others to something you especially enjoy. You are a wonderful team player and have much to contribute to any group. Look for ways to spend more time with people who share your interests.
Dragon: Events today could make you less concerned about your own personal challenges. Focus in a supportive way on the needs of others. Make simple gestures to recognise those who have been especially patient and helpful to you. Your need to make a good impression can override good sense this evening.
Snake: Today you may want to work hard to accomplish some specific goals. Be willing to take your time in order to do the best job possible. If you're upbeat and funny, people will eagerly offer to help. Be willing to compromise if someone has an unexpected suggestion this evening.
Horse: Change has come - some of it unwelcome. Sometimes it is difficult to accept that things are different. You, or someone near you, may be stubbornly resisting the need to move in a new direction. What you have depended upon in the past may no longer put food on the table.
Goat: Activities with children or people who depend on you can be especially happy and rewarding today. This is a wonderful time for planning family parties. Artistic projects around the house can bring surprising results and lasting satisfaction. Consider taking a crafts class. Reorganise and toss out what is no longer necessary.
Monkey: This is a good time to work behind the scenes. Reach out to people who might need your help. A longstanding situation that seems never to get any better could change if you make a plan and take action. Doing the same thing again won't work. A different approach is necessary.
Rooster: You're naturally cooperative. It may be surprising to others when you voice a complaint. Be cautious about how you present potentially difficult or negative subjects. People can easily misinterpret your motives or become hostile and shut down. Stay calm and pleasant, and avoid appearing in any way threatening.
Dog: Taking a break is the best use of today's energy. Pause and think about your life. This is a great time to create very specific goals in any area that you hope to change or improve. Take time to write down a list of big dreams you hope to achieve.
Pig: Are your spending habits in line with what you want to get out of life? This is a powerful day to analyze your habits and beliefs about money. You must be honest about your situation. Face any fears head on. It's possible to improve your situation with some planning.
