IN YOUR ELEMENT
The characteristics of the Dog Sign are tempered by one of the five Chinese elements of Metal, Water, Wood,
Fire and Earth overlaying a 5-year cycle of characteristics on the original 12-year cycle.
THE METAL DOG 1910 AND 1970
Metal Dogs have extremely high standards and expect a lot of themselves and of others. They are loyal and
hold a strong outlook about the direction they want their life to take. They choose their friends and causes with care, as
they do not plan to ever not support these people and things again. Once they have committed themselves, there is little to
no turning back. They are bold, unafraid to disagree out loud about anything they feel is unjust or unfair. Metal Dogs are
easily stressed if a plan does not go accordingly. They find it difficult to relax when there are things to be done.
THE WATER DOG 1922 AND 1982
These Dogs have great foresight and are well-educated on many different things. This quality helps them appreciate
other points of view, making them quite flexible and liberal. They are easygoing, but this can cause them to be too spendthrift
with money and less loyal with friends. Still, because of their flexible natures and their ability to appreciate difference,
these Dogs always have friends and are usually popular people.
THE WOOD DOG 1934 AND 1994
Wood Dogs are well-rounded individuals. They are adaptable, flexible and laid back. However, they are not
as independent as other Dogs and like being part of the group. This is due in part to the support they crave, but it also
makes them feel secure and self-confident. In return, they are faithful friends, shy at first, then warm and affectionate.
THE FIRE DOG 1946 AND 2006
Fire Dogs are natural leaders. Fire Dogs are popular, charismatic people, always surrounded by a group of
admirers. Not only admired for their vibrant personalities, these Dogs also possess a sexual attractiveness that makes them
irresistible. These people are adventurous and vivacious, yet, honest and openhearted. However, because they are so active,
they are generally not the settle down type.
THE EARTH DOG 1958 AND 2018
The earth Dog is clever and genuine. He is rational and supportive, stable and stoic. Earth gives this Dog
an element of security, for he is inspiring and confident. These characters are just, certain to hear both sides before making
a decision. He makes a great leader because he is such a trustworthy, diplomatic individual.
MONEY AND THE DOG
Dogs work hard and spend wisely. They do not work to buy luxurious things. They work to secure a future for
their families. They generally have hidden savings accounts for future family endeavors such as family vacations and college
tuitions.
