     Chinese horoscope is organized according to the 12 animals signs. These 12 animals were assigned to each of the 12 years when, according to legend, the Lord Buddha summoned all the animals to come to him before he departed from Earth. Only 12 animals came to bid him farewell. As a reward he named a year after each one in the order that they arrived. First came the Rat, then the Ox, the Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Boar. Thus we have twelve signs today. In Chinese calendar, each Lunar Year is depicted by a characteristic animal trait. Your birth year determines your dominant animal sign. Some people still believe that the animal ruling the year in which one was born exercises a profound influence on one's life.
