Every 12 years, the sign and symbol of the year returns, the change of signs is due to the eastern calendar, with which almost the whole world is being checked today. It returns not just the symbol of the year, expressed by the animal, but also the element. The tree is replaced by Fire, Fire by Earth, Earth by Metal, and Metal by Water. So, for example, people born in 1988 were born in the year of the Earth (Yellow) Dragon. And they, of course, have some important differences from the Dragons of other years.
General information
The Chinese calendar claims that 1988 was the year of the Dragon. It started on February 17, and ended on February 5 already in 1989. The eastern horoscope especially highlights this animal, since only the emperor was endowed with the title of a dragon in Ancient China. It means that birth in 1988 is associated with energy power. Power often controls a person, controls his passions, emotions. But the Dragons of the 88th are different - they have a very rare balance. This is due to the fact that the year is in the elements of the Earth: that is, they are quite confident, firmly on their feet, and even, in a sense, mundane people. Their strong point is that they can set clear goals. They work them out to the smallest tasks, and successively solving them, they come to the main result.
And these definitely positive, enviable qualities are combined with such strong negative traits as despotism and the desire to subjugate. And here it is important how the individual qualities of a person will correct their natural inclinations.Someone will have the same despotism as hyperdemanding and workaholism, but some Dragons seem to be real tyrants. Representatives of this sign are easier than many other people to cope with the choice of profession.
They clearly know what they want, they do not break doubt. They understand themselves and their strengths, therefore they can often achieve success precisely by virtue of the right choice of their life’s business.
Main characteristics
Those born under the sign of the Dragon can rely on the numbers 1,6,7 - they bring them luck, but 3 and 8 are unhappy. Favorite colors are white, gold and silver, and unhappy - blue and green. Good luck will bring them green chrysolite and amethyst, the best metal for them is bronze. Dragons born in 1988 are better at doing business on Monday, but on Friday their energy is no longer so strong.
To the undoubtedly strong side of the sign can be attributed the ability to analyze their actions, work, relationships and make the right, most objective conclusions. They not only know how to admit their mistakes, they do it without unnecessary emotions and tantrums. These are determined and frank people who will not keep a stone in the bosom. They are loyal to friends, they know how to be friends, and they know that good relationships require effort and time. The obvious disadvantages of the Dragon include a certain aggressiveness and vanity. Sometimes their hot temper and impulsiveness appear where the situation is not so acute and deserves a more calm reaction. But those around them do not resent such emotionality if they understand the Dragon well and see the goals behind this intolerance.
Vanity and ambition are the key features of the sign. These people love praise, attention, universal glee about their successes. They know how to accept compliments and congratulations, they will not unnecessarily flirt and be embarrassed.
Modesty in relation to their own festivities and victories is not about them. They love guests, gifts, beautiful toasts and exquisite greetings. They like to bring this fun into their lives, in the center of which are themselves.
Women
The element of the Earth affects these Dragons, makes them balanced, calm, averse to external panic. Even if they have complete misunderstanding, fear and anxiety in their souls, they will not bother with the external manifestation of the inner confusion of those around them. It is very important for them not to lose face, so as soon as they allow themselves a tantrum or a nervous breakdown, they seem to have exhausted strength. They can only be trusted by those closest to them, but to the end, what is happening in their souls will not be known to anyone.
The Dragon Woman is not ready for public scandals. She can flare up, raise her voice, but just do not make a showdown for the viewer. And even if everything is in full swing in her soul, she will find an opportunity to calm down and come to the right decision. As a leader, she is recognized as a strict and demanding, but fair and active boss. She will not imitate violent activity, but will really work.
Female Dragon succeeds in actions related to children, therefore, in the pedagogical field, she can build an outstanding career. It is in working with children that she will show maximum hard work, endurance and will be able to reveal talents. What she once failed to fully realize herself, she will do with her students.

Men do not like surprises, try to foresee everything, like to play it safe. They are thrifty, economical, but it doesn’t reach greed. At work, they are responsible and punctual employees who value discipline and diligence.

These are good, loyal friends, able to respond to any request.They converge well with people, they can find points of intersection with anyone. But their best friend will be a life partner, the choice of which they take with all seriousness.

Description of the astrological signs of the zodiac
More accurate characteristic there will be a description of the Dragons according to the signs of the zodiac.
- Aries. The combination of signs strengthens key qualities, makes positive ones more obvious, but negative ones become more visible. These are very active people, who are often pioneers, innovators. They are charming and cheerful, able to charge others with love of life and readiness to storm new heights. They often fail to wait, impatience. They are afraid of wasting energy, do not like to mess with those who are less risky, decisive, and may be dismissive of people of such irrepressible temperament.
- Calf. Realistic, pragmatic, constructive - these are the three main features of these people. They will never rekindle a flame unless they are sure they can handle its consequences. They try to protect themselves as much as possible. Surrounded by reputation as reinsurers, and this trait can sometimes turn them into alarmists. They make good financiers. In love, they are prone to dramatization and excessive sentimentality.
- Twins. Bright Dragons who love to shine and impress. But, alas, this impression is not always consistent with the true state of affairs. Impatient, unable to stock up on vitality, not always true to their promises. They intentionally do not want to offend anyone, but they often do this with their irritability. For good work and self-confidence, they need a tone, a constant challenge (albeit not very grandiose).
- Cancer. Their main features are stubbornness and the ability to give an accurate assessment of the situation. These are defenders, whose reliability there is no doubt. People often come to them for advice, and they generously share their rational thoughts with people.

The main thing for them is the family, and they will spare no effort and time to protect it. Protect your peace of mind.
- A lion. These leaders are not at all close to routine. They are ready to do anything, if only these actions were not monotonous. They are not so important monetary reward as the inner fire that glows in them in the process of working on an interesting project. They need equally bright partners, although in terms of love, they often disappoint their soul mate. They do not stand a long passion, a little lazy in personal relationships. Boasting is inherent in them, but harmless. If the praise will “fly” to them more often, they are ready to roll mountains.
- Virgo. These are well-aimed arrows (in every sense). They understand more clearly than others in which direction they really need to move. Excellent strategists who can wait and analyze. Often their appearance is deceiving: in the "gray mice" lies a huge potential. In the struggle for the throne, they are ready to make a forbidden reception. Careerists may deceive, but this is not always a deal with conscience. If there is a partner with an easier attitude to fame and success, he will help people of this sign not to make fatal mistakes.
- Libra. In these people there is no artificiality, false splendor. They are usually appreciated, respected, they know how to like, but achieve such a reputation by work and again by labor. Often these are very beautiful, spectacular people who can make themselves a royal image for “3 rubles”.But they calmly relate to their appearance, for them actions, authority, efforts are much more important. Rarely give yourself a break. Whatever you do, it will all be served under the most beautiful, delicate, elegant sauce. They love adoration, they don’t like boasters of mediocrity. They prefer the peace path to war, action to relaxation, and plans to dreams.
- Scorpio. You definitely need to be careful with these people. In a couple of steps they can destroy an opponent, anyone who got in their way. It is better not to argue with them, to maintain neutrality. These are stinging people, although they are characterized by talents, vivid abilities and skills. They love and know how to work, but are arrogant, touchy and vengeful. Together they need a gentle and generous person who will balance their ardor and passions and focus on the main positive qualities.
- Sagittarius. Enthusiasts, even adventurers in something. They like to take risks and are maximally disclosed in stressful situations. Calmness and routine piss them off. Magnanimous, peaceful, ready to help and love the whole world. They are sociable and inventive, which often helps them a lot. In love, they guess the wishes of a partner, but are not always true.
- Capricorn. Everything in life goes to them with considerable work. They ascend to their main peaks for a long time. They are ambitious, longing for power and know how to dispose of it. They go straight, do not let dust in the eyes, carefully choose friends, partners, life partners. A bit closed, do not want to let even the closest ones into your soul.
- Aquarius. Independent, easy-going, energetic. They are not afraid of critics, they do not see obstacles where many simply turn astray. Always know how to get out on the exam. They can postpone important things to the last, but still manage to complete them. They undertake grandiose projects, they don’t like to exchange for trifles.
- Fishes. Very sensual people with well-developed creative thinking. Idealists, ready to save and transform the world. Brave and enterprising, captivating. There is a sin of infidelity in them, but this windiness is often forgiven for them. The main thing for them is not to turn off the intended path.
No less important may be the characteristic of relatively different aspects of life.
Finance and career
Material stability is one of the values of the Dragon. They do not like unexpected large expenses, they nervously endure them, but they know how to turn the situation so that they do not remain in the loser anyway. They know how to save, thrifty and economical, like to spend money on loved ones, but with good calculation. They do not make frivolous purchases, but even with a small income they know how to distribute funds so that they are enough for everyday life, for arranging the nest, and for rest, and for the development of children.
In a career, it's hard to get them astray. Even if there are many advisers nearby, Dragons know what to do. It is difficult to seduce them with large salaries and favorable conditions, if they clearly know that their place is not there. They go forward, do not allow to shut up their own ambitions, do not rest on their laurels.
A good career can be built in the fields of pedagogy, culture, law, business analytics.
Love and relationships
Fidelity to the companion is not the Dragon's horse. This does not mean that all representatives of the sign necessarily change the partner. But the taboo on betrayal does not stand clearly in their lives, they will decide to have an affair if they themselves forgive it in advance. However, if they make a mistake, they will not repeat it again.
They are easily forgiven because they are strong and attractive people. Often, they pull the partner along with them, therefore they change, and therefore the partner, even humiliated and offended, quickly forgets offenses. In love, these are bright and demanding natures, passionate and a little insidious.
Compatibility
The Dragon can form an ideal union with the Rat, Monkey and Rooster. True, in a marriage with a Rooster, infidelity can be mutual. But sometimes without them, relationships lose their former passion, because both of them are happy. You should not start a relationship with a Rabbit or a Dog. At least you should not do it in a hurry.Before you run down the aisle, a year, or even two or three, you should look at each other.
The goat will not be able to maintain the Dragon’s passion for a long time. With the Horse, financial friction can arise, with the same Dragon, the struggle for power can begin. With the Bull, the Dragon is better to be just friends, and with the Snake, things may not go beyond a stormy love relationship.
Talismans
As already mentioned, amethyst can become a powerful talisman for the Dragon. It aggravates intuition, helps to choose the most important among the vain and make accurate decisions. The Dragon can make any jewelry his talisman, because this fabulous creature often guarded the treasure chests. Therefore, people of this sign love jewelry and know a lot about elegant jewelry.
Any figurine or pendant with a dragon can become a talisman. The figurine should be kept in the working area. In order for the amulet to work, activate the eye zone for it - draw tiny dots in the eye area with a black marker.
And do not forget, the information is good in that it can be analyzed, draw conclusions and learn from the mistakes of others. There are no bad and good signs, there is only the inability to accept oneself and learn to work with one’s own potential.
