The official Chinese New Year was Saturday 28 January 2017, which symbolised the year of the Rooster.
Those born in 1957 or 2017 are fire roosters, who are said to be trustworthy, responsible at work and have a strong sense of timekeeping. Other years of the Rooster are 1921, 1933, 1945, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005 and 2029.
Roosters are said to be the most motivated animal in the Chinese zodiac, and make their careers a priority. They are hard-working and able to deal with a variety of jobs due to their multiple talents.
If you’re a rooster, you’re well suited to become a journalist, salesperson, hairdresser, soldier, surgeon or security guard.
Roosters who take the initiative will make good career achievements in the upcoming year, which will make up for the fickle finances from the previous year of the Monkey.
