Two zodiac signs fall within the Gregorian year 1967. Choose the row containing your birthday. These dates include both the first and last day; the animal changes at Chinese New Year, not on January 1.

Stem & branch: 丁未 · dīng-wèi
Lunar year length: 355 days

Goat personality in tradition

Yáng can refer to a goat or sheep; English lists may also say Ram. The sign is often linked with kindness and harmony.

The phrase “kind & creative” describes a traditional association with this animal, rather than a rule about everyone born in 1967. The year element is one part of the calendar; it does not establish a person's complete five-elements or Bāzì chart.

我属羊。

Wǒ shǔ yáng. “I was born in the Year of the Goat.”

Goat compatibility in folklore

Goat, Pig and Rabbit form a traditional harmony group of three. Ox sits opposite Goat, six places away in the twelve-animal cycle. These describe symbolic positions, not evidence of who will make a good partner.
