The Dragon is the fifth animal of the Chinese Zodiac. According to legend, the Jade Emperor decided to assign twelve animals to the Zodiac. The announcement went out to the entire land. The order of the animals would be determined by which one arrived at his palace first. Tiger, Rat, Ox, and Rabbit were the first four to arrive, and Dragon followed soon after.

Dragon is regarded as the noblest and most powerful of the Chinese Zodiac signs. Those born under the year of the Dragon are courageous, kind, confident, eloquent, ambitious, and dominant. They are great agents of change, as they always push the boundaries of their knowledge and skill, never feeling fully satisfied with their achievements. They often bring profound change to all serious relationships and any important situation.

Dragon Personality

Dragon people are highly intelligent. They are capable and charismatic, confident and intelligent, and are always dreaming about the next thing they want to do, while still completing what is right in front of them.

Dragon individuals tend to be fearless and love to adventure to and through other cultures, bringing what they have to share and absorbing what others are willing to share in return.

Dragons dream big and execute their goals, but sometimes they can fall prey to the charm of their own personality and become aggressive, overconfident, and fail to accept criticism from their peers and life partners.

Being vigorous, ambitious, frank, honest, self-conscious, fearless, just, talented, resourceful, strong, and vital.

Personality Based on the Five Elements

According to Chinese Astrology, every sign of the Chinese Zodiac has an elemental attribute corresponding to it: wood, water, metal, earth, and fire.

Wood Dragon

People born between Feb 13, 1964 – Feb 01, 1965, or Feb 10, 2024 – Jan 28, 2025, are Wood Dragons. They are meticulous and talented and can get anything done, regardless of the degree of difficulty.

In fact, the more difficult and tougher things get, the more satisfaction they find in solving the problems. On the downside, Wood Dragons may take things too seriously and lose sight of the things right in front of them.

They possess high emotional intelligence and are great at making things happen with the help of the right people. Honesty and truthfulness are strong character traits in these Dragons.

Metal Dragon

People born between Feb 08, 1940 – Jan 26, 1941, or Feb 05, 2000 – Jan 23, 2001, are Metal Dragons. Straightforward and honest, they are creative people willing to make the best of life. Their frankness can also create problems and push some friends away, but it is also the main reason why true friends will stay by their side for most of their lives.

Water Dragon

Individuals born between Jan 27, 1952 – Feb 13, 1953, or Jan 23, 2012 – Feb 09, 2013, are Water Dragons. Persistent and far-sighted, people under this sign and element find it easy to work toward the future. They like being part of something rather than initiating their own projects. Although they can be great employees, they would have more success if they started their own businesses.

Health for Dragon

Being active and challenging themselves on a regular basis keeps Dragon people physically healthy. Mentally they might get stressed and feel burnt out after long periods of hard work, so it is important for them to meditate, escape for short periods of time, or take long vacations every few years.

Saving time for family and friends or practicing sports regularly can help a Dragon to keep his or her good health intact. They should use vacations as opportunities to expand their beliefs and get inspired by nature.

Business and Career for Dragons

While dragon individuals can be great at manual and technical jobs, they should keep in mind that they need to constantly challenge themselves to feel satisfied, so it is important for them to improve their skills continually.

Therefore, jobs that involve creativity and coming up with solutions to new problems will be best for Dragons to find fulfillment. Dragons will do best when they keep their heads high in the clouds since they will not be happy having a routine job. Their best-working partners are Pigs, Tigers, Dogs, and Snakes.

Dragon Relationships with Other Signs

Dragons are not always the best in long-term relationships because they are committed to their dreams, objectives, and jobs. It is easy for the people born in the years of the Dragon to find romantic partners because they are giving and generous with those they love.

They are also very charismatic, charming, and sensual. Because of their enthusiasm about their projects, sometimes Dragon people focus more on their work than family.

When searching for a happy marriage, Dragon individuals will do best with equally ambitious partners or a nurturing partner who supports them without demanding too much from them emotionally.

The Dragon individual matches best with Rooster, Rat, and Monkey; has okay relationships with Rabbit and Horse; and struggles with Ox, Goat, and Dog.
