Year of the Goat
未 · Earth energy
People born in the Year of the Goat (also called the Sheep) tend to be gentle and full of affection, giving the people around them a sense of ease. Rather than clash, they'd rather hold and soothe — that warmth runs deep. Soft as they look, they carry a delicate artistic sensibility that is firmly their own.
In Korean Saju, your zodiac animal is the year branch (未) — one of the eight characters in your birth chart. It's a real part of the reading, but only one-eighth of it: a lens for reflection, never a verdict.
