Born in 1980: the Monkey
A Yang Metal Monkey 🐒
Monkeys are fast learners and natural problem-solvers with a sharp sense of humor. They improvise well and rarely stay stuck. As a Metal-element year, 1980 adds a determined, disciplined and self-reliant streak to the usual Monkey character.
The 1980 lunar year ran from February 16, 1980 to February 5, 1981. If you were born on or after February 16, 1980 you are a Monkey; if you were born earlier in 1980, you belong to the previous year's sign, the Goat.
