How your year is formed

In Saju every year has a heavenly stem and an earthly branch. 1955 is 乙未: the stem 乙 is Wood Yin ("The Flexible Vine": the vine that always finds its way) and the branch 未 is the Goat. Together they make the year of the Wood Goat.

Your element and your animal

The element of the year (Wood) moderates the animal's element (Earth): a creative tension that asks for balance and often gives personality.

In Saju, the Wood element is associated with growth, flexibility and a desire to learn. It is an image to recognize yourself, not a fixed label: everyone lives it in their own way.

Born in January or February 1955?

Your Saju year starts on February 4, 1955 at 09:17 (UTC−5, approximate). If you were born before that moment, your sign is that of the previous year: 1954: Wood Horse. If you were born after, it is that of 1955. The free calculator resolves it with your exact date and time.
