Japanese Year of the Dragon



The dragon is the fifth symbol in the Japanese Zodiac. In ancient China, dragons were associated with power, and only the Emperors were allowed to use the symbol. This sign represents “justice” and “trust”.

Personality traits

Dragons are energetic, brave, honest, and can inspire trust in almost everyone. However, they are also short-tempered and very competitive, so they tend to have as many enemies as friends.

You can identify a dragon if they:

  • Work better as individuals than in groups
  • Speak their mind without reservations.

Compatibility with other signs

Dragons are most compatible with monkeys and rats. If these three come together, it generates a great positive power. Dragons also have a mutually beneficial relationship with roosters. Dogs are the least compatible with dragons.

In Japanese

In Japanese, a dragon is “tatsu” in romaji, and is written as “龍” or “竜”in kanji. In the Japanese Zodiac, however, it is written as “辰”.
