Short answer

The Goat is the eighth of the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. In the traditional groupings, the allies of the Goat are the Rabbit and the Pig, the secret friend is the Horse, and the clash, the animal opposite, is the Ox.

A Chinese year starts at the lunar new year, in late January or in February. A birthday before that day belongs to the animal of the year before.
