A snake is obviously a libra (vain, wise, philosophical, lazy, absolutely beautiful, hypersensitive, needs harmony at all costs, loves to show off her charm and needs people, logical  and analytical but needy), the pig a cancer (the opposite of libra: hates vanity or waste of any kind, both are very indecisive, pig is very naive and likes to believe everyone is  good at heart in the end), the goat pisces the dreamer (totally unrealistic, uber shy, very kind to everyone), the ox taurus (hard workers, stubborn, likes routine, quiet and shy), the rabbit capricorn (unaffectionate, cold, philosophical, but sensitive on the inside, a humorous person but can be really antisocial and have a stubborn/insensitive streak), the rooster virgo (workaholic, demanding perfectionist, plain-looking), the tiger gemini (naive, childlike, always energetic), the horse sagittarius (duh) (arrogant, impul sive, always making jokes), the dragon aries, (go getter, larger than life, and very confident  and guys are very masculine, wants to dominate) the monkey aquarius (always joking and on the move, stubborn and opinionated, a rebel), the dog leo (loyal, critical or bossy, and friendly, and has a generous heart and a sense of pride) and the rat scorpio (appears cold, calculating and weird or just plain creepy, hard to get to know, not great with peop le but can be witty and charming nevertheless, though they seem mean and sneaky)   

I have a hard time deciding if a rooster is more of a scorpio though. According to astrologizeme.com they have sadistic tendencies and very love/hate attitudes, and also they are people of extremes, everything is either black or white.

The dog definitely doesnt seem like a leo to me. But that's the only one that was left lol. The dog seems more like a capricorn because they criticize everything on its morality and have a stern serious demeanor, and have a hard time expressing feelings. But in real life the persoanlity of the animal (dog) is most like leo to me. But i guess dogs really arent like the actual animal. Dogs, the animal, are a ray of sunshine like leos are.

Tigers are warm, expressive and personal, while aquariuses seem cold distant and impersonal, though humorous. The snake is perhaps a bit too clingy and emotional and personal to be a detached libra, but every other quality matches so well to the extravagant, kind, and sophisticated libra that i cant ignore it. The rabbit is really cold and unaffectionate, and in fact seems almost like they are a lot more cerebral than emotional, though they arent really. Think of what a rabbit or cat looks like, with that blank expression in their eyes. That doesnt make me think pisces at all. And rabbits are nowhere near as big of dreamers as pisces are. The pig is almost exactly like a cancer, and o thinkthe goat fits pisces much better.

I perceive a correlation, and in some ways, I can better understand a Western sign by thinking of it in terms of its corresponding Chinese sign.

For instance, Taurus = Snake.

There are some differences, I agree...but Taurus is more intuitive than Westerners give it credit for...a mistake that could be corrected by thinking of the Snake.

As for Scorpio = Pig

Pigs are said to be financially astute...so is Scorpio. Pigs love food/drink and so does Scorpio. Pigs are SWEET and in my experience, so is Scorpio. But they both get enraged when pressed to their limits.

Rabbit = Pisces

The reason for the traditional association must be because each sign in western astrology has to stay in its element. All the earthsigns must coincide with the earth signs in chinese astrology---the snake, ox, and rooster. Etc.

Yeah, I know. I was going to say that same thing. I used to agree with the correspondencies, but now I think it's more complicated than that. In relation to the rabbit, in particular, deep inside they are cold and they don't give that much affection genuinely. I don't see Pisces like that. With Rabbit I think of an Air sign, probably Aquarius or Libra. I hadn't thought of Capricorn, but it kind of makes sense.
Tiger is supposed to be Aquarius, but more courageous and proud, so I'd say a mixture of Aqua, Gemini and Leo..

But which rabbit, there is more that one Rabbit ,there is more than one OX and so on,
there are not twelve,, but 60.12 x 5
A fire chicken has diff personality than a wood chicken.

and so on,,
Additionally in Chinese astrology they do not consider the person to be the YEAR, but the day.

Anyone trying to make a correlation but has never even read 5 real pages on Chinese astrology is acting un-intelligently.

Well, Pisces is accused of being cold, too.

Loving in "too universal" a way.

To me, the reading is not the actual "school."

It's paying attention to real life.

Noticing how the Years work.

I've read books on Chinese astrology.

Not sure if they count as "real"?

I would be a sloth, had I actually been born in the year of the rabbit as I had thought originally (I was born in 1999). Apparently my birth-date translates to sometime in December for the Chinese zodiac, so I'm a Panther instead.

@Electro: 1999?!!!

My oldest son was born then...let's see...he's a Sugar Glider.

I won't tell him, it's hard enough to get him to see he's a Sagittarius.
Though he vastly prefers Archer to "Rabbit".
