Note: The names of the signs in the Chinese zodiac occasionally differ in the various books on Chinese astrology, although the characteristics of the signs remain the same. In some books the Ox is referred to as the Buffalo or Bull, the Rabbit as the Hare or Cat, the Goat as the Sheep and the Pig as the Boar.
For the sake of convenience, the male gender is used throughout. Unless otherwise stated , the characteristics of the signs apply to both sexes.
