How to Check Your Vietnamese Zodiac
Your Vietnamese zodiac animal is determined by your birth year in the Lunar Calendar — not the Western calendar. This is especially important because the Lunar New Year falls on a different date each year. If you were born in January or February, you may actually belong to the previous year's zodiac.
