哥哥, Grandma often says your zodiac animal can show whether someone is impressive. Is that true?

The Chinese zodiac is a traditional culture and it’s interesting, but it can’t determine what a person will be like.

Then are the things fortune-tellers say believable? Can they know the future?

小刚

Right now there’s no scientific proof that fortune-telling can predict the future. It’s more about helping people feel reassured.

So is it useful to listen to fortune-telling?

小刚

It’s fine to listen, but you shouldn’t believe it completely. What matters most is your own effort.

I see. Then how should I think about the zodiac?

小刚

You can learn it as culture and stories, but when you make decisions, you should rely on yourself.
