Chinese Zodiac - Year of the Rabbit

Chinese Zodiac - Year of the Rabbit

The Rabbit is part of series of the 12 Animal signs of the Chinese Zodiac — the rest of the zodiac are coming soon! In the background is the Chinese character for the Rabbit. This image also available in black-and-white and as a T-shirt.

Those born in the Year of the Rabbit are said to be gracious, cultured, intellectual, and detail-oriented. They may be very sensitive — sometimes to the point of nervousness — but this also makes them compassionate and attentive to those around them, and they like to make their homes comfortable and peaceful.

You are probably a Rabbit if you were born in 1999, 1987, 1975, 1963, 1951, 1939, or 1927, but double-check the exact dates if your birthday is in mid-January to mid-February because the Lunar New Year is on a different date each year. Wikipedia’s Chinese Zodiac page is a good starting point for more information about all of the signs and their meanings.
