I'm always curious about the current "Year of" animal designation for the Chinese New Years.
Examples:
2009 is The Year of the OX.
2010 is The Year of the Tiger.
2011 is The Year of the Rabbit.
Have you wondered what animal in the Chinese New Year corresponds to your birth year?
Here is a chart, with the 'year of' animals and the corresponding years from our calendar:
