Am I a tiger or an Ox?

There is an animal representing each year, but the “year” is defined by Chinese lunar calendar, not the Gregorian year you are familiar with from Jan. 1st to Dec. 31st. The dates of Chinese Lunar New Year vary every year, but will fall on a day in January or February. February 19, 1985 – February 8, 1986 is considered a Wood Ox. The wood is just the element you are. I am also an Ox but a fire Ox.

I too thought that I was a Tiger for the longest time. I became sad to know that I was an Ox. I feel like even being born on Jan 14th 1986, near the cusp, that I have characteristics of both zodiac signs.
