FAQ
What Chinese zodiac sign is someone born on September 10, 1971?
September 10, 1971 falls in the 辛亥 year — the Metal Pig. Note that the zodiac year follows the solar calendar (changing at 立春, early February), not January 1, so dates in January and early February belong to the previous animal year.

The zodiac animal is one of eight characters in the full chart. The Day Master — here 戊 (Yang Earth) — is the element that represents the person; classical BaZi reads everything else relative to it.
