There is no sign more venerated in Chinese Astrology than the Dragon. Proud, strong, and self-assured, the Dragon is a sign of nobility and power. Chinese Emperors used this very symbolism to represent themselves, regardless of what year they were born. Those born during the year of the Dragon are gifted with eloquence, idealism, and tenacity. Dragons don’t have to ask for things, they demand them. They can be dictatorial and inflexible in their associations with others, but at the same time be the warmest, most gentle individuals you may meet.
Dragons are full of life and vitality, encouraging those around them to be their best while maintaining a powerful, exotic presence amongst their peers.
It can be difficult for Dragons to see things from outside perspectives. Deep down those born during these years know that they are special. Usually gifted in a particular talent, they are also very lucky. Dragons were born to take charge, to succeed at what they focus on, regardless of whether their intentions are good or bad. As you might have guessed, Dragons can abuse their power just like anyone else. They don’t like taking orders from anyone, as they alone were born to take charge and command their people.
There are 12 Primal Zodiac signs for the Eastern Zodiac sign of Dragon, one for each sign of the Western Zodiac. If you don’t know your Western Zodiac sign you can use this chart to find your Primal Zodiac sign, which contains both Eastern and Western signs.
Aquarius born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Aquarius are represented in Primal Astrology
by the Leopard. Leopards are typically among the more exuberant of
Aquarians. In fact, they are also one of the more opinionated as well.
Leopards often find themselves the de facto leaders of teams they are
on, not because they want to lead, but because others want them to.
Leopards have to be careful not to fall too in love with their own ideas
and ignore the greater good for their own personal gain. You can read

Aries born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Aries are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Not surprisingly these individuals are among the
most aggressive, demanding, and intimidating of all Primal Zodiac
signs. The Dragon enhances Aries strong sense of confidence and dynamic
energy while adding an idealism and leadership ability. However, the
Dragon also brings with it an inflexibility to make compromises.
Tyrannosaurus Rexes are more naturally gifted and lucky than most other
Aries signs. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Tyrannosaurus Rex by clicking here.
Cancer born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Cancer are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Hornet. Hornets are among the most confident of Cancers, but also
among the most entitled. The Dragon brings pride, nobility, and
self-respect to the Hornet, which is badly needed for the fragile
Cancer, whose selflessness and concern for others balances out the
Dragon’s selfish nature. Hornets are potentially very powerful
individuals if they can learn to be honest with themselves and keep
their emotions in check. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Hornet by clicking here.
Capricorn born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Capricorn are represented in Primal Astrology
by the Eagle. Eagles are proud, hard working, and extremely ambitious.
The Chinese Zodiac’s Dragon brings a flair of nobility and a rather
tireless sense of self confidence, though it also increases the
likelihood that these Capricorns will become too black-or-white
judgemental and get stuck defending their beliefs rather than
questioning them. Eagles can easily overwork themselves and fill their
days with more promises than they can keep. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Eagle by clicking here.
Gemini born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Gemini are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Hummingbird. Hummingbirds are more feisty and tenacious than other
Geminis, but they are also more likely to offend other people. The
Dragon brings a pride and nobility to Gemini, which if taken too far can
lead others to find Hummingbirds arrogant and tyrannical. However, the
Dragon also allows Gemini to lead and the chance to achieve great
things. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Hummingbird by clicking here.
Leo born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Leo are represented in Primal Astrology by the
Orca, a.k.a. “Killer Whale”. Orcas are the most prideful of all Leos
and never want to look bad in front of others. However, if taken too
far, this can lead to self-delusions and a lack of taking personal
responsibility. The presence of the Dragon intensifies Leo’s feisty
sense of self assurance, but lessens Leo’s soft temperament and
tolerance of others. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Orca by clicking here.
Libra born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Libra are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Porcupine. With Porcupines, the Dragon adds a sense of confidence,
nobility, and pride that Libra can make good use of, though Dragons also
tend to be stubborn and temperamental as well. This combination is
capable of great things, but they first have to keep from feeling
entitled and becoming such perfectionists that no one can live up to
their standards. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Porcupine by clicking here.
Pisces born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Pisces are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Firefly. The Dragon’s optimism and forceful personality has the
ability to outweigh Pisces’ natural introversion and hesitation to make
decisions. This typically occurs when Fireflies allow themselves to
feel confident in themselves and their work and are making progress
toward their goals. Fireflies need to be social more so than other
Pisces, which also helps balance out their energy. You can read more

Sagittarius born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Sagittarius are represented in Primal
Astrology by the Whale. One of the luckiest signs in the Primal Zodiac,
Whales are more temperamental and impetuous than other Sagittariuses,
but they are also more aggressive and inflexible. The Dragon brings
with it leadership, nobility, and authority, but Dragon can also be a
stubborn perfectionist who is too proud for its own good. You can read
more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Whale by clicking here.
Scorpio born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Scorpio are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Jaguar. Jaguars are strong, intense, and full of confidence. The

which works both for and against Jaguars. This combination creates
exceptionally powerful personalities that can even scare others away if
not kept in check. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Jaguar by clicking here.
Taurus born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Taurus are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Rattlesnake. The Dragon keeps Taurus from being a timid follower
while Taurus brings a romantic, sensual side to Dragon. Rattlesnakes
never back down from a challenge, and they possess the tenacity,
persistence, and determination to win every time. However, they may
scare off as many people as they draw in. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Rattlesnake by clicking here.
Virgo born during the Year of the Dragon...
Dragons
born during the cycle of Virgo are represented in Primal Astrology by
the Polar Bear. The Dragon’s dynamic self confidence aids Virgo, but
Dragons are also inflexible perfectionists, which only makes it harder
for analytical Virgo to make decisions. While Virgo pulls inward, Dragon
pulls outward towards other people, giving Polar Bears a chance at
having it all. You can read more about the Primal Zodiac sign of Polar Bear by clicking here.
