About The Chinese Zodiac
The Chinese Zodiac, a captivating facet of Chinese culture, bestows a unique animal upon each year in a 12-year cycle. These animals—Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig—imbue individuals with distinctive traits and destinies. This ancient tradition, the Shengxiào, kindles passions, guiding lives with a dynamic interplay of characteristics attributed to each animal. Much like a vibrant tapestry woven from five elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water—these animals forge an intricate narrative of identity, destiny, and compatibility.
The Chinese New Year heralds a fresh cycle, enveloping celebrations with familial warmth and cultural reverence, painting existence with the colors of each unique creature.
One of the most popular coins produced by the Perth Mint is the Lunar Series, which celebrates the Chinese zodiac calendar. The mint also makes other popular coin series, such as the Kangaroo, Kookaburra, and Koala series.
