The Korean Zodiac Signs by Korea Tourism
Visitors to Korea might be surprised to hear Koreans referring to 2010 as "the year of the tiger". Koreans believe that there are twelve gods of the earth (Sibiji or twelve jisins) who take the form of twelve animals: the mouse, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, and pig.
Before the arrival of the Western concept of time keeping, Koreans measured time according to the names of animals, for example myosi (the time of the rabbit) was between 5:00 and 7:00, and misi (the time of the sheep) was between 13:00 and 15:00. The whole day was divided into twelve sections, each of which was symbolized by one of the twelve animals. Various tales regarding the origin of these beliefs have been handed down through the generations, and the most common ones are indicated below. These animals were therefore seen as guardians of specific times and also of specific directions such as north or southwest. They were believed to be guardians against evil spirits, and can be seen surrounding royal tombs.
Koreans also determined the years by assigning them to the twelve animals. According to this system 2010 is "the year of the tiger", and 2011 will be "the year of the rabbit". It is traditionally believed that people possess the certain characteristics of the animal whose year they were born in. Therefore the year and also the time at which you were born were believed to determine your personality and fate.
Symbols of Sibiji
Jasi (23:00-01:00): The mouse is most active during this time.
Chuksi (01:00-03:00): The cow ruminates its cud and prepares for the next morning's work in the field.
Insi (03:00-05:00): The tiger is the most ferocious during this time.
Myosi (05:00-07:00): Before the sunrise, a jade rabbit can be seen in the moon high in the sky.
Jinsi (07:00-09:00) : The dragon flies and prepares for the rain.
Sasi (09:00-11:00) : The snake is still sleeping so it will not harm humans
Osi (11:00-13:00) : As the yang of the earth turns to yin at this time, the horse gallops across the earth.
Misi (13:00-15:00): The sheep must graze the field at this time so as not to harm the grass.
Sinsi (15:00-17:00) : The monkey cries the most at this time.
Yusi (17:00-19:00) : After a whole day of searching for food, the chicken finally goes to its nest.
Sulsi (19:00-21:00) : As the sun sets, the dog starts looking after the house.
