Chinese Zodiac and
Dragon
Chinese Zodiac
The Chinese Zodiac (生肖) consists of twelve animal signs, each representing a year according to the lunar calendar. The twelve animal signs are: Rat; Ox; Tiger; Rabbit; Dragon; Snake; Horse; Sheep; Monkey; Chicken; Dog and Pig.
Emperor Huang and Yan
Every year, on the Tomb-sweeping Day (usually on April 5th）, thousands of Chinese people come back from all over the world to the tomb of their oldest ancestors in Shaanxi province to participate the annual memorial ceremony..
The order of the animals is often explained with a folk-tale about how the animals were summoned （召唤）to heaven by the Jade Emperor.
The dragon, as the only animal of the twelve that could fly, was expected to arrive first. But the dragon’s nature is to be helpful, and he stopped to help some villagers and then the rabbit, so he was the fifth animal to arrive for the Jade King's feast.
This year is the year of Monkey!!!
