According to Chinese Astrology, 1905 is the Year of the Snake and it is the Wood element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1905 are Snakes. The Chinese Snake year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 4 February 1905 and 24 January 1906 are considered born in the Chinese year 1905 and are a Snake sign. In addition, each Snake 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. 1905 is also known as the Year of the Wood Snake. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1905 is Yin (-) according to the Chinese calendar.
