Chokakoi, '84?  If it's so, then you're born the same year as me! 
Was out the whole day visiting relatives. Collected a lot of red packets too. ^^"

O! I think I'm most compatible with the Ox. >>high fives<<
Mind you, I find zodiacs of any nature problematic and dangerous, but for believers or trivia purposes, here's info on the Rat (since it's the year of the rat  )

Actually if your sign matches that of the year (e.g. an Ox in the year of the Ox) you'll need to prepare yourself for a bumpy ride during the year.

Numerology isn't an exact science. The Chinese, however, can use the date of birth (down to the hour) to calculate a person's fortunes (and I don't just mean riches) and it can be surprising accurate.

Yes, it can. But I still believe human beings are a lot more complicated.
