Born in 2029: the Earth Rooster
If you were born in 2029, your Chinese zodiac sign is the Rooster 鸡, and the year's Heavenly Stem is Ji, which gives the year its element: Earth. So a full 2029 reading is a Earth Rooster. People born in 2029 turn -3 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 2029, Lunar New Year fell on 2029-02-13. Anyone born in 2029 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.
Earth Rooster personality, briefly
Observant, organised and unafraid to say it plainly, the Rooster keeps the schedule, the standards and the receipts. Roosters take pride in doing things properly and notice every detail others miss. The Earth stem is traditionally said to shade that character — Earth adds steadiness, appetite and a practical streak. One sentence is all a birth year can honestly carry; the rest is entertainment.
