According to Chinese Astrology, 1955 is the Year of the Goat and it is the Wood element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1955 are Goats. The Chinese Goat year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 24 January 1955 and 11 February 1956 are considered born in the Chinese year 1955 and are a Goat sign. In addition, each Goat year is also represented by 5 elements in Chinese astrology that express character and behavior.
