Personality

Traditionally listed weaknesses:

Compatibility

In the traditional system each sign has a 六合 (six-harmony) partner and a 三合 (three-harmony) group. The Dragon pairs with the Rooster and harmonises with the Rat, Monkey. These pairings are used in matching for partnerships, marriages and business.

Lucky numbers and colours

Commonly listed lucky numbers: 1, 6, 7. Lucky colours follow the Earth element: yellow, gold, white. The number 4 is usually avoided because it sounds like 死 (“death”).

2027 (Year of the Fire Goat)

The Dragon has no direct clash with the Goat year; the traditional reading points to steady progress and attention to detail.

The yearly reading is a traditional cultural framework used for reflection, not a prediction.
