Born in 2014: the Wood Horse
If you were born in 2014, your Chinese zodiac sign is the Horse 马, and the year's Heavenly Stem is Jia, which gives the year its element: Wood. So a full 2014 reading is a Wood Horse. People born in 2014 turn 12 years old in 2026 (or have already, depending on the birthday).
The one exception: January and February birthdays
The Chinese zodiac year does not start on January 1. In 2014, Lunar New Year fell on 2014-01-31. Anyone born in 2014 before that date belongs to the previous year's animal — use the homepage finder with an exact birth date and it handles the boundary for you.
Wood Horse personality, briefly
Independent, warm-hearted and always halfway out the door, the Horse runs on freedom and momentum. Horses are quick, funny and decisive, and they wilt under micromanagement or a too-quiet calendar. The Wood stem is traditionally said to shade that character — Wood adds growth, patience and a builder's streak. One sentence is all a birth year can honestly carry; the rest is entertainment.
