According to Chinese Astrology, 1936 is the Year of the Rat and it is the Fire element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1936 are Rats. The Chinese Rat year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 24 January 1936 and 10 February 1937 are considered born in the Chinese year 1936 and are a Rat sign. In addition, each Rat 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. 1936 is also known as the Year of the Fire Rat. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1936 is Yang (+) according to the Chinese calendar.
