Happy Chinese New Year! Today marks the beginning of the Chinese Year of the Pig, and the worldwide celebrations have got us thinking about the year we were born in. What does your Chinese zodiac animal say about you and how could it affect life, love and especially luck?
If you don’t know which zodiac animal you are, no problem! Dragon’s Zen mobile slots features all 12 of them, and we’ve asked each one to tell us the lucky numbers, days and colours associated with their years. We’ve included every year for each animal going back to 1940, so you can find out which one you are and see what that says about you!
Whether you decide to play online bingo on one of your lucky days, choose a lucky number on Roulette or even play a mobile slots game themed around your lucky colour, we hope this blog helps to bring you good fortune!
NOTE: As Chinese New Year is usually in early February, if you were born in January or early February, your zodiac animal will be that of the previous year.
