Year of the Red Goat

2027 pairs the Fire stem 丁 with the Goat 未. Fire's color is red, so this is the Year of the Red Goat, also called the Fire Goat. How the year treats you depends on how your animal gets along with the Goat. Some are natural allies, and some sit opposite and clash.

How we read the zodiac

Your zodiac animal is the last character of your birth-year pillar. Each forecast compares that character with the last character of the coming year, using the traditional Korean relationships between the 12 animals: pairs that bond (six harmony), trios that work as a team (three harmony), animals of the same season, and frictions such as a clash between opposite signs. Each year also has its own element, which colors the animal born in it.

The Korean zodiac year changes at Ipchun, around February 4, not on January 1 or Lunar New Year, so people born in January or early February may belong to the year before. On each animal's page, hearts next to the compatible animals show the match level out of 5.

Zodiac forecasts look only at your birth year. Your full Korean birth chart adds the month, day and hour, so two people with the same animal can have very different years. These readings follow traditional Korean astrology and are for reflection, not a substitute for your own judgment or professional advice.
