According to Chinese Astrology, 1939 is the Year of the Rabbit and it is the Earth element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1939 are Rabbits. The Chinese Rabbit year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 19 February 1939 and 7 February 1940 are considered born in the Chinese year 1939 and are a Rabbit sign. In addition, each Rabbit 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. 1939 is also known as the Year of the Earth Rabbit. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1939 is Yin (-) according to the Chinese calendar.
