People have been fascinated by their Zodiac signs for centuries. The idea that one’s birth month could determine their personality traits is an intriguing notion to many. While the Western Zodiac signs household symbols, they’re actually inspired by the original Chinese Zodiac. They form the basis for the Chinese Calendar, which depicts Zodiac signs and lunar animals that repeat in 12-year cycles. This calendar still plays a significant role in Chinese culture today.
