The Chinese sign of Mexico City: Snake

Founding on Tenochtitlan on Aug 13, 1521, in the year of the Snake in the Chinese calendar. On Molino, affinity is measured sign against sign: yours, according to your date of birth, against that of Mexico City.

Same sign: Snake
You resonate most with Mexico City if you were born between Feb 10, 1929 and Jan 29, 1930; Jan 27, 1941 and Feb 14, 1942; Feb 14, 1953 and Feb 2, 1954; Feb 2, 1965 and Jan 20, 1966; Feb 18, 1977 and Feb 6, 1978; Feb 6, 1989 and Jan 26, 1990; Jan 24, 2001 and Feb 11, 2002 or Feb 10, 2013 and Jan 30, 2014.
Its two friends (三合 San He): Ox y Rooster
It also resonates with people born in years of the Ox or Rooster: Ox, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009; Rooster, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017.
Its enemy (六冲 Liu Chong): Pig
The opposite energy. If you were born in a year of the Pig (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019), the one with Mexico City is the relationship best avoided.

Keep in mind

Affinity is a symbolic reading from the Chinese zodiac tradition, not a measurement: it compares the sign of the year you were born with that of each entry's year of origin.
