The ancient Chinese Lunar Calendar dates back beyond 2,600 BC. Based on the appearance of the new moon, it associates a different animal with each year in the 12 year lunar cycle. Traditionally, the first year of the lunar cycle is ruled by the mouse. According to legend, the order of the animals in Chinese astrology were determined by their race across a river. Unknown to the ox, the mouse hitched a ride on its back, leaping to victory at the very last second. The tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig followed the quick thinking mouse and the flabbergasted ox to dry land. It is also believed a person's personality is influenced by which animal governs their birth year. The Perth Mint of Australia Lunar, known for highly collectible bullion coins, has released a Lunar Year animal since 1999 when the Lunar Series I began.
