Born in 2016: the Monkey
A Yang Fire Monkey 🐒
Monkeys are fast learners and natural problem-solvers with a sharp sense of humor. They improvise well and rarely stay stuck. As a Fire-element year, 2016 adds a dynamic, warm and a little restless streak to the usual Monkey character.
The 2016 lunar year ran from February 8, 2016 to January 28, 2017. If you were born on or after February 8, 2016 you are a Monkey; if you were born earlier in 2016, you belong to the previous year's sign, the Goat.
