The sign
The Chinese sign of Netherlands: Snake
Act of Abjuration on Jul 26, 1581, 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 Netherlands.
- Same sign: Snake
- You resonate most with Netherlands 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 Netherlands 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.
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.
