According to the legend, when Buddha reached enlightenment he invited all the animals to celebrate their joy. To that invitation came the Buffalo and other 11 animals that were rewarded with the inclusion in the Chinese zodiac.

In the Chinese Horoscope, we can be an animal or another depending on the year we were born, but we can be another depending on the month and the time of birth.

How do I know if I am a Buffalo?

As we have indicated before, each animal ‘governs’ a specific year. The years of the Buffalo in the Chinese Horoscope are: 1901, 1913, 1925, 1917, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009 and so on, adding 12 years to the previous figure.
