The sign
The Chinese sign of Mendoza: Rooster
Founding on Mar 2, 1561, in the year of the Rooster in the Chinese calendar. On Molino, affinity is measured sign against sign: yours, according to your date of birth, against that of Mendoza.
- Same sign: Rooster
- You resonate most with Mendoza if you were born between Jan 26, 1933 and Feb 13, 1934; Feb 13, 1945 and Feb 1, 1946; Jan 31, 1957 and Feb 17, 1958; Feb 17, 1969 and Feb 5, 1970; Feb 5, 1981 and Jan 24, 1982; Jan 23, 1993 and Feb 9, 1994; Feb 9, 2005 and Jan 28, 2006 or Jan 28, 2017 and Feb 15, 2018.
- Its two friends (三合 San He): Ox y Snake
- It also resonates with people born in years of the Ox or Snake: Ox, 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009; Snake, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013.
- Its enemy (六冲 Liu Chong): Cat
- The opposite energy. If you were born in a year of the Cat (1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011), the one with Mendoza is the relationship best avoided.
