Dragon Chinese Zodiac Signs

In China, several thousands of years ago, the Jade Emperor thought that there must be a method to measure time. With this decision, on a special day, he said the animals to participate in a swimming race. He also announced to the animals that those arriving in the first 12 positions in the race will be announced as winners and they will get a zodiac named after them.

When the race started, he thought that the Dragon would be the first to cross the river as it can fly across the river to cross it, while other animals will have to swim. But, the dragon came only on the fifth position as it was helping people with their need for water on its way. In the same way, the dragon helped the rabbit with the collection of a log of wood so that the rabbit can cross the river with ease. When the king asked the dragon for the reason for his late arrival, the dragon explained these reasons. The king was impressed with the kind-hearted nature of the dragon. This is why those born in the Chinese zodiac dragon years will be kind-hearted.

Dragons are trustworthy and loyal friends. They always have a thought to help others by going beyond their strengths. In addition to being colorful, they are mysterious as well. They always wish to work alone as they have a tendency to achieve the goals, they have set for themselves.

Love Compatibility for the Dragons

In the Chinese zodiac, each animal sign carries its own unique characteristics. When calculating the love compatibility of one Chinese zodiac sign and another, the character of the animal sign is considered. Only those characters that match each other go well and can be good at not only personal but also business relationships. Accordingly, here are the signs most and least compatible with dragons:

• Most Compatible Signs: Rooster, monkey and rat
• Least Compatible Signs: Dogs and rabbits

Roosters go well with dragons and at hard times, roosters will take the best care of dragons and will provide sincere motivation to help dragons get out of the difficult situation. Both dragons and monkeys are innovative and imaginative. But, once they both get together, dragons should make sure that their monkey partner does not play small games to trick them. Due to their dependability and wit, dragons love rats naturally. Both of them have diverse personalities and this is why they are attracted to each other.

Because of their opposite personalities, dogs and dragons do not get along with each other. Both of them cannot comprehend or trust one another. When it comes to rabbits, share common interests with dragons. However, they have only a certain degree of compatibility with each other. In the same way, dragons cannot get along with other dragons with ease. As both are stubborn and independent, they will disagree and so they cannot maintain a smooth relationship when a dragon marries another dragon.

Careers Suitable for Dragons

People born in dragon years have a fast-paced thought process. So, the jobs that are mentally exhausting for others will fit them well. Some of the fields like education, politics and arts can be chosen as career choices for people born in this Chinese zodiac.

When they are made to work alone, they feel indecisive and insecure. So, they do their best when they are made to work in a team. Naturally, they possess the best skills to plan things and they can come up with ideas that work. However, to make the best plans, they need someone to provide them with miscellaneous details.

Dragons are the best business people. In their initial 35 years, the efforts they make towards their career will move forward smoothly. However, following that, they will not be as lucky as earlier. However, their persistent efforts will aid them in making a good breakthrough in their careers.

In general, for those born in the Chinese zodiac dragon, a stable occupation does not suit them. The reason is that they do not get chances to use their talents in stable jobs. They are good at imaging things. So, they always show interest in jobs related to thinking. This is why they can choose fashion designing, acting, artwork, writing or architecture as the most suitable career choices for them.

Health of Dragons

Dragons are generally hardworking. So, they are healthy in general. But, they might be stressed due to too much work and can suffer from periodic tension mainly due to their excess work. They always like to take risks and embrace challenges. Older people born in this Chinese zodiac should be considerate about their stomach, intestines, blood, gallbladder and liver health. For young and middle-aged people in this Chinese zodiac sign should take the best care of their skin health.

To maintain their health, dragons should walk regularly and should engage in yoga. These activities will be good both for their minds and bodies.

The Wealth of Dragons

If you have born in the Chinese zodiac dragon year, naturally, you will be interested in knowing whether you will lead a wealthy life. Mostly, experts express that dragons earn easy money. However, they are not that good in financial management. So, if you wish to be wealthy in your life, it is better to get help from a financial expert so that you can invest the money you earn in sources that will bring you better returns for a safe future.

The problem with dragons is that they have an acute sense of chances to make a fortune. So, at times, they invest in speculative things and lose money. This is due to poor financial management. Mostly, for dragons, money will be a means of realizing their goals and it will never be the most crucial part of their lives as they make money easily. Before your 30s, you will make a fortune just with little effort. If you create new opportunities, you can lead a rich life when you reach middle age. Dragons rarely suffer from financial problems. So, you can feel relieved of your wealth.
