Chinese zodiac
However, in Chinese zodiac, your sign is determined by the year of your birth and is celebrated during a 12 years period!
Chinese zodiac is used in China, its surrounding countries and many Turkic countries.
As you can see, they are really different. Chinese signs are associated to animal species.
地支 (dìzhī; dei6 zi1; tē-tsi): the twelve earthly branches, opposed by 天干 (tiāngān; tin1 gon1; thian-kan) the ten heavenly stems.
In Chinese, the words for 地支 can not indicate the animal, while in most other languages, the animals must be made clear.
When used as “time of the day”. it is called 時辰 / 时辰 (shíchen; si4 san4; sî-sîn).
Take a look at the following table:
