Questions
Can I use these for Lunar New Year?
Yes. The twelve signs are meant for 春节 gifts and décor on a 5mm board. Sort reds and golds from the detail legend.
Why is a tiger here instead of Animals?
It is a calendar sign. Everyday wildlife lives under Animals; this page follows the twelve earthly branches.
How is this different from Western zodiac?
Zodiac is sun-sign emblems. This page is lunar-year animals. Both use 5mm midi, but they are not interchangeable.
Are any Chinese zodiac charts Free?
Some download as PNG. Pro signs preview here and export in the app. A small sign also pairs well with a holiday wreath.
How should I iron a first sign?
Start at the face or a dark outline. Festival contrast is strong, but neighboring reds and golds still need small iron patches.
