According to Chinese Astrology, 1938 is the Year of the Tiger and it is the Earth element. Based on the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, those born in 1938 are Tigers. The Chinese Tiger year repeats every 12 years. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, those born between 31 January 1938 and 18 February 1939 are considered born in the Chinese year 1938 and are a Tiger sign. In addition, each Tiger 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. 1938 is also known as the Year of the Earth Tiger. Each zodiac sign is also associated with a negative/positive expression according to the Yin Yang philosophy. The year 1938 is Yang (+) according to the Chinese calendar.
