The animal year when a person was born is called his / her Ben Ming Nian (Zodiac Year of Birth).Although it sounds a bit
superstitious1, Chinese people take their year of birth seriously. According to the soothsaying, people in their own Ben Ming Nian may offend “Taisui”, also called the God of Age. most popular solution is wearing red underwear, socks or waist belts given by elders, for red is believed to bring them good luck.
