According to Chinese Astrology, 1922 is the Year of the Dog and it is the Water element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1922 are Dogs. The Chinese Dog year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 28 January 1922 and 15 February 1923 are considered born in the Chinese year 1922 and are a Dog sign. In addition, each Dog year is also represented by 5 elements in Chinese astrology that express character and behavior.
