Chinese Zodiac Symbols Affecting Your Chinese Horoscope
By Jane Mineralis
There are many stories in the world about how zodiac
symbols came to be. But if you want to know the story
behind the Chinese zodiac symbols, then you have to
know the story of the Jade King and how he sent out
a proclamation for twelve animals to be representatives
of the Earth.
It is a story of a rat, ox, tiger, dragon, rabbit,
snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and a pig, and
how they came to represent the Chinese Zodiac. There
should have been a cat instead of a pig but that rascal
of a rat did not invite the poor cat.
Each Chinese Zodiac Sign Represents The Year Of Your
Birth
Once you get past the mythology portion of the Chinese
zodiac symbols you can get down to how the Chinese zodiac
sign(s) actually work. Each Chinese zodiac sign is made
up of one of the aforementioned animals. One of the
animal signs represents the year of your birth. Each
of the signs rotate in a twelve year cycle. If you were
born this year, then you would be an ox because this
is the Year of the Ox. You can learn more at

One aspect of the Chinese zodiac that people do take
seriously, is the compatible zodiac signs to their own
sign. Sometimes, the Chinese zodiac sign compatibility
factor plays a major role in personal relationships,
because with zodiac signs, there are different personality
characteristics that are said to represent the person’s
true self.
Accuracy Of The Chinese Zodiac Sign
Whether or not this is true and should be believed,
is for you to review and decide. Sometimes the Chinese
zodiac sign is accurate and people really base their
worldly decisions on whatever the prediction is for
that day, month or year.
One important note: if you are a fan of zodiac signs
tattoos and want to get your Chinese zodiac sign tattooed
on your body, then make sure that the symbol is accurate.
Words in a foreign language often do not translate into
the same meaning in other languages.
On the website mentioned, there are zodiac pictures
that you will find to be quite unique. It would be terribly
unfortunate for you to get a tattoo of your zodiac symbol
and later realize that it has no relation to the zodiac.
The Jade King And His Tricky Rat
Chinese zodiac symbols are rife with history and legend.
Everyone interested in a Chinese zodiac sign should
know about the Jade King and his tricky rat that outsmarted
the cat. The cat would have been one of the twelve signs
had it not been for the rat failing to give him his
invitation.
That rat was crafty and so the pig got the cat’s spot.
If you are interested in learning more about the mythology
and the mechanics behind the signs and how they cycle
through time, then you can always find more information
on the internet.
