Those born in the year of the Tiger, Monkey, Rat, Horse, Dog and Dragon are considered to be of Yang energy and possess  traits that align with masculine energy. On the other hand, those who belong to the Rabbit, Pig, Snake, Ox and Goat are more aligned with feminine energy, Yin.

While Yang animals enjoy an extra boost of luck through more cooler, neutral and metallic hues such as white, gold, silver, black, grey and blue; Yin animals are said to gain more from dressing in warmer and brighter tones – red, orange, purple, green and turquoise, for example.
