The sign
The Chinese sign of Rio de Janeiro: Ox
Founding on Mar 1, 1565, in the year of the Ox in the Chinese calendar. On Molino, affinity is measured sign against sign: yours, according to your date of birth, against that of Rio de Janeiro.
- Same sign: Ox
- You resonate most with Rio de Janeiro if you were born between Jan 25, 1925 and Feb 12, 1926; Feb 11, 1937 and Jan 30, 1938; Jan 29, 1949 and Feb 16, 1950; Feb 15, 1961 and Feb 4, 1962; Feb 3, 1973 and Jan 22, 1974; Feb 20, 1985 and Feb 8, 1986; Feb 7, 1997 and Jan 27, 1998 or Jan 26, 2009 and Feb 13, 2010.
- Its two friends (三合 San He): Snake y Rooster
- It also resonates with people born in years of the Snake or Rooster: Snake, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013; Rooster, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017.
- Its enemy (六冲 Liu Chong): Goat
- The opposite energy. If you were born in a year of the Goat (1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015), the one with Rio de Janeiro 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.
