Dragon Years
As one of the most important animals, it is no wonder that Asian birthrates skyrocket during Dragon years. Flamboyant and large-scale are the themes for these years. Bold political and business moves will be made during this time, with promises of great reward, but also a corresponding risk.

Dragons in Rat Years
Dragons should take full advantage of the Year of the Rat, a time of creativity and innovation. Especially focus on the areas of health, relationships, and business.

Dragon Personality
Expect a Dragon to be very extroverted, trendy, stylish, and imaginative. They thrive on the attention of others. Although they have many ideas for business ventures, few tend to be practical. Dragons have a tendency to amass great wealth, yet end up wasting it all.

Dragon Symbolism
As the only imaginary animal among the twelve, the Dragon represents the supernatural and mysterious. It also represents water and floods, royalty, power, wealth, and fertility.

Dragon People
Sigmund Freud, Grace Kelley, Oliver Hardy, Shirley Temple, Martin Luther King, Bruce Lee (of course!), Christopher Reeves
