- Same sign: Dog
- You resonate most with American Express if you were born between Feb 14, 1934 and Feb 3, 1935; Feb 2, 1946 and Jan 21, 1947; Feb 18, 1958 and Feb 7, 1959; Feb 6, 1970 and Jan 26, 1971; Jan 25, 1982 and Feb 12, 1983; Feb 10, 1994 and Jan 30, 1995; Jan 29, 2006 and Feb 17, 2007 or Feb 16, 2018 and Feb 4, 2019.
- Its two friends (三合 San He): Tiger y Horse
- It also resonates with people born in years of the Tiger or Horse: Tiger, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010; Horse, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002, 2014.
