Chinese Zodiac Animals - CSV
The Chinese zodiac, also known as the Twelve Earthly Branches, is a system of 12 animals corresponding to the traditional Chinese calendar's earthly branches. The 12 animals are Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig (Boar), each possessing distinct personality traits and symbolic meanings. The cycle repeats every 12 years, and the animal of one's birth year is believed to influence their character and fortune. Widely celebrated across East Asia including Japan, these zodiac animals are featured in New Year decorations, fortune-telling, and cultural celebrations.
