The Characters of the People Who Have Been Born in the Year of the Sheep

I have a relative who was born in 1955, the year of the Sheep. He is like a sheep to his wife and children. He is a super soft person and he is always willing to help others. Many people like him, especially females.

2015 will be the year of the Sheep. These years are the year of the Sheep: 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015, 2027, I do not know the date for the New Year¡¦s Day for the year of the Sheep yet, but it is between Jan. 21 to Feb.19 on the Western calendar.

It said that the character of the person who is born in the year of the Sheep is very elegant, creative, gentle, smart, kind, loving, romantic, but timid. The ¡§Sheep people¡¨ can get alone with people who are born in the year of the Pig and the year of the Rabbit but do not have good relationship with ¡§Ox people¡¨.

To most of the people, it is impossible to relate human beings¡¦ characters to the characters of animals. For sure nobody would like to compare himself or herself with an animal. However, according to the Chinese traditional folk stories and the Chinese calendar (the lunar calendar), all human beings are born under the influence of the Zodiac. There are 12 animals on the Chinese Zodiac. Every animal has his unique characters and whoever is born in the year of that animal will have the same kind of characters. I am not sure about the truth of such theory. However, I do find some animals¡¦ characters in every person that I know. Yes, under certain situation, we, as human beings will demonstrate some animal nature and desire.

Both the Western and traditional Chinese calendars are used in all Asian countries. But people use the lunar calendar only to set the dates for traditional festivals. I celebrate the Western New Year and the Chinese New Year. There are many Chinese traditional celebrations here in America. Especially in California, every year we have big parade, Chinese New Year Art Exhibition and the Asian American Expo.
