The combination of your birth year, its allotted animal, element, and whether it is a yin or yang year decides which years will bring you good or bad fortune, and to what extent. A fortune teller or an annual Chinese almanac can help you determine if you are yin or yang, but you can also figure it out based on certain characteristics. For example, if your birthday is in the first month of the year then you are a yin person. If it is in the fourth, then you are a yang person. Also, if your birthday is at the end of a quarter or at the end of a month, then you are more likely to be yang. Here are some other clues to help you decide if you are a yin or yang person: If you prefer the quiet life and dislike crowds, then you are probably a yin person. Yang people are usually more outgoing and like to get involved in different projects and activities. Whether you are a yin person depends on many factors such as heredity, environment, and current situation in your life.
