According to Chinese Astrology, 1919 is the Year of the Goat and it is the Earth element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1919 are Goats. The Chinese Goat year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 1 February 1919 and 19 February 1920 are considered born in the Chinese year 1919 and are a Goat sign. In addition, each Goat 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. 1919 is also known as the Year of the Earth Goat. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1919 is Yin (-) according to the Chinese calendar.
