Okay, so I’ve always been a bit curious about the Chinese zodiac, you know, that whole thing with the animals and the years. So I thought, why not figure out what animal was for 2017? It’s not something I usually pay attention to, but it seemed like a fun little project.
I started my little investigation, of course, by hitting up the internet. I typed in something like “Chinese zodiac 2017” into the search bar. There were tons of websites with information. Most of them were pretty clear that 2017 was the Year of the Rooster.
But then it got a bit more interesting. I learned that it wasn’t just any Rooster, it was specifically a “Fire Rooster.” Apparently, there’s this whole element thing too – fire, earth, metal, water, wood – that rotates alongside the animals. That’s why I found “Fire Rooster” repeated several times.
- People born in a Fire Rooster year, including 1957 and 2017, are supposed to be super motivated and career-focused.
- They’re also said to be outgoing, bright, independent, and all that good stuff.
- Apparently, Roosters, in general, are seen as deep thinkers and really talented.
- They like to stay busy and put their all into everything they do.
Here’s what I dug up about the Fire Rooster:
This whole zodiac thing is a 12-year cycle. So, every 12 years, it’s the Year of the Rooster again, but the element changes. I guess that makes each Rooster year a little unique.
So, after spending more time than I probably should have on this, I confirmed that 2017 was indeed the Year of the Fire Rooster. It was a fun little dive into something I don’t normally think about. And hey, maybe I learned a little something about myself in the process! If you were born in 2017 or 1957, you might just be a Fire Rooster. I finished my research and closed all my tabs, feeling accomplished.
