According to Chinese Astrology, 1915 is the Year of the Rabbit and it is the Wood element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1915 are Rabbits. The Chinese Rabbit year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 14 February 1915 and 2 February 1916 are considered born in the Chinese year 1915 and are a Rabbit sign. In addition, each Rabbit year is also represented by 5 elements in Chinese astrology that express character and behavior. Therefore, each year it is referred to with a different zodiac animal name and a different element name, and this repeats only once in 60 years. 1915 is also known as the Year of the Wood Rabbit. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1915 is Yin (-) according to the Chinese calendar.
