The sign
The Chinese sign of Washington DC: Dog
Founding on Jul 16, 1790, in the year of the Dog in the Chinese calendar. On Molino, affinity is measured sign against sign: yours, according to your date of birth, against that of Washington DC.
- Same sign: Dog
- You resonate most with Washington DC 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.
- Its enemy (六冲 Liu Chong): Dragon
- The opposite energy. If you were born in a year of the Dragon (1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, 2012), the one with Washington DC is the relationship best avoided.
The Chinese year starts between January 21 and February 21: if you were born in those weeks, check the exact range on your sign's page.

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.
