What animal is 1966 in the Chinese zodiac?
In the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle, 1966 is the Year of the Horse. More precisely, the 1966 lunar zodiac year runs from January 21, 1966 to February 8, 1967. People born before January 21, 1966 are usually counted under the previous sign, the Snake.
The 1966 Chinese zodiac is also connected with the Fire element. In traditional interpretation, Fire adds themes of visibility, passion, confidence, expression, and fast momentum to the natural Horse qualities. This is why the 1966 Horse is not read exactly the same as every other Horse year.
