WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ASTROLOGY AND THE CHINESE ZODIAC?
The Chinese zodiac and Western astrology are both ways to understand people’s personalities based on when they were born, but they are a bit different. The Chinese zodiac uses 12 animals, like dragons and tigers, and each animal represents a whole year in a repeating 12-year cycle based on the lunar calendar. Astrology uses 12 star signs, like Aries and Taurus, which are based on the sun’s position and follow the solar calendar, repeating every year.
So, basically, in the Chinese zodiac, your animal sign depends on the year you were born, while in Western astrology, your star sign depends on the exact date you were born. Isn’t that cool?
