According to Chinese Astrology, 1946 is the Year of the Dog and it is the Fire element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1946 are Dogs. The Chinese Dog year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 2 February 1946 and 21 January 1947 are considered born in the Chinese year 1946 and are a Dog sign. In addition, each Dog 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. 1946 is also known as the Year of the Fire Dog. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1946 is Yang (+) according to the Chinese calendar.
