Why might someone born in January have a different sign?
The Chinese year starts at the Lunar New Year, between January 21 and February 20. People born before that date belong to the previous year's sign. The tool warns you when your date falls in that period.
What is the element?
Each year also has one of the five elements (Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth), which changes every two years and combines with the 12 animals in a 60-year cycle.
