What Is Your Baby’s Chinese Zodiac Sign If They’re Born In 2018? There's More Than One Option!

Western astrology relies on the sun signs. The young and the old are familiar with the characteristics and behavior associated with their own sun sign – that’s just how prevalent they are! But in the East, we have the moon signs and the Chinese Zodiac!

In total, there are 12 Chinese zodiacs, which are represented by 12 different animals. While the sun sign is determined by the month of your birth, the Chinese Zodiac makes its prediction based on the year that you were born in. Those who love astrology are naturally curious to find out what the Chinese calendar has to predict for every year, especially if they are expecting a baby in 2018.

According to the Chinese zodiac, 2017-18 is the year of the Rooster, while 2018-19 is the year of the Dog. The year of the Dog begins on the 16th of February 2018. Hence, babies born before this date are actually from the year of the Rooster. Babies that are born after the 16th (and till the 4th of February 2019) are considered to be born in the year of the Dog. But what does this mean for your baby? Read on to find out!

If your baby is born before 16th February, it is going to be good looking! Not only that, it will also be blessed with a quick mind that can identify the best strategies to solve problems without taking unwarranted risks. Being detail oriented, s/he will have a flair for technically advanced fields such as the law, finance, and advanced medicine. Additionally, Roosters are honest to the point of being rude and have no time for tricky niceties.

However, such a logical outlook does not preclude them from having a strong intuition. Many people wonder if they are psychic, so strong is their ability to observe and grasp the intangible. Being logical as well as shrewd, the Roosters are very successful professionals!

The Dog: Loyal, Honest, And Responsible

If your baby is born in the year of the Dog, it could become a judge or a counselor. The Dog is associated with objectivity, efficiency, and focus; although they can be a bit slow. You can trust your child just as you can trust a dog to be loyal. The baby may also turn out like the dog who chooses its master and listens to others very rarely. So, it is possible that your child may take time to trust strangers; however, once s/he decides upon where their loyalty lies, they will always be faithful!

Born with a keen sense of justice, your baby could also be upset by the inequality that is widening across all societies today. This could make him or her take sides with those who lag behind in the ‘rat race’ that is experienced by all people today. Your baby has the potential to be a crusader who wants to set right the errors in society. S/he will rebel against injustice and try to help the underdog.

A baby born in the year of the Dog does not find love easily. They set high expectations for their partners, and this can be very trying for those who are romantically involved with them. This makes life complicated as the romantic partner feels stressed and insecure as they are put to the test. It is not just the romantic partner who has to suffer the doubts of the Dog, but his or her friends are upheld to have certain standards of behavior as well. Parents-to-be should keep this in mind and gently train their child to be more caring in their relationships.

Parenting is a joy, whatever be the nature of the child. Parents just have to equip themselves to cater to the need of the newborn. A quick review of the Chinese zodiac is just one more way you can get ready to take on your duties as parents. Best of a luck!
