Have you ever wondered if the person you were dating really is “THE one?” Well, thanks to the ancient art of Chinese Astrology, one can interpret the Chinese Zodiac’s given dates and signs to come up with a love match or mismatch to see just how compatible you and your partner (or potential one) really are.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• you and your match's birthdates (month and year)

1. First, you will need to find out what Chinese Zodiac sign you were born under. Note: if you were born during the month of January, look under the previous calendar year for your animal, as most Chinese New Years occur during the month of February. In order to help make it easy, just look at the following guide below and match your birth year:
   
   Rat - 1900, 1912, 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008
   
   Ox- 1901, 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997
   
   Tiger- 1902, 1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998
   
   Rabbit- 1903, 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999
   
   Dragon - 1904, 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000
   
   Snake- 1905, 1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001
   
   Horse- 1906, 1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002
   
   Sheep- 1907, 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003
   
   Monkey- 1908, 1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004
   
   Rooster- 1909, 1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005
   
   Dog- 1910, 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006
   
   Pig- 1911, 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007
2. Ok, so now that you know each other’s signs, here is the best optimum match for each sign. You can have three choices: either yourself (same animal sign) or two others that are compatible. Below are the best choices when it comes to a relationship according to the Chinese Zodiac.
   
   Rat ~ Dragon ~ Monkey
   
   Ox ~ Snake ~ Rooster
   
   Tiger ~ Horse ~ Dog
   
   Sheep ~ Pig ~ Rabbit
3. Now to interpret this guide, I am going to use the example of myself. I am a dragon; therefore, I am compatible with another dragon, a rat, or a monkey. While I ultimately did not end up with either of these, it is fun to look back on my relationships and see just how well, or not so well, the different relationships I formed had any compatible validity influenced by this theory. Enjoy this tool as a means to rediscover your past, look at your present, or gaze into your future relationships.

Tips & Warnings

• Anything is possible and just because it doesn't look like your relationship isn't a match does not mean that it won't be the best one of your life!
