According to the legend, when Buddha reached enlightenment he invited all the animals to celebrate their joy. To that invitation only 12 animals came, among them was the Rat, so this one and the other 11 were included in the Chinese zodiac, as a prize.

How do I know if I am a Rat?

As we have indicated before, each animal ‘governs’ a specific year. The years of the Rat are: 1900, 1912 1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008… and thus consecutively adding 12 years to the previous year.

General definition of the Rat

Rats are cheerful and diligent. They are characterized by their adaptation to the environment and by their ability to recover from difficulties quickly; even when they are going through a bad time, they are able to show their joy.

Historically, they have had a negative connotation for their appearance.

Selfishness: In general the Rat always looks for their own well-being, although they can be very generous with those they consider their friends.

Wooden Rat
