For career: It is difficult for people of this age to avoid difficulties in the early stages of their fortunes.

4.4. Year of Binh Thin was born in 1976

People born in 1976 belong to the year Binh Thin, with the element Sa Trung Tho – meaning sandy or alluvial. The combination of the heavenly stem Binh with the Fire element and the Earth branch Thin with the Earth element creates the image of Thien Thuong Chi Long – Dragon in the sky.

About personality: Freedom, generosity, flexibility, but many calculations and fluctuations are core features that often shape a dragon winding in the air. The people born in the year of Binh Thin seem to be comfortable and leisurely and like to travel everywhere; however, they hide a lot of thoughts and worries. They are independent in thinking and always want to reach success in both money and fame. In addition, their happiness and sadness are relatively difficult to grasp because sometimes they appear noisy but can suddenly become quiet. However, most of the time, they always show the bustling, happy, and open-minded features.

For career: Binh Thin people are born with the nature of a leader. Right from the early start of life, they aim to build a solid line of work for themselves. However, to achieve success in work, this age group must go through plenty of challenges.

Before the age of 35, it is almost difficult for them to reach career success. But later on, their career becomes more stable, and achieves many good results. However, the Binh Thin people are not born for top social positions. Therefore, this age should only be satisfied with a certain level of achievement.

For love: Binh Thin people’s love relationships are generally good. Their youth is a bit bumpy, and their love is sometimes just because of a sudden impression and has no clear purpose. But, when entering married life, they are the type of people who are dedicated and devoted to their family and children. They are skillful in cultivating and maintaining family happiness. Maybe, in the early stages of marriage, it is inevitable for Binh Thin people to be sad at times; however, as their future progresses, family life becomes warmer and happier, with obedient and filial children.

For finance: Almost parallel to fame, the Binh Thin people do not lack money but do not belong to the top richest. They are self-made people, so their youth have some financial struggles. But this situation quickly ends, and then the Binh Thin people continuously have luck in terms of fortune. After the age of 35, they begin to feel financial security. Wealth gradually comes to them, and life becomes more leisurely and prosperous during the last lifetime.

Binh Thin is incompatible with the following ages:

Canh Thin was born in 1940, 2000; Nham Thin was born in 1952, 2012; Nham Tuat was born in 1982; Canh Tuat was born in 1970; Tan Meo was born in 1951, 2011; Quy Meo was born in 1963, 2023; Canh Ty was born in 1960, 2020; Nham Ty was born in 1972; Canh Dan was born in 1950, 2010; Nham Dan was born in 1962, 2022.

The Binh Thin is suitable for these ages:

Ky Dau was born in 1969; At Dau was born in 1945, 2005; Giap Ngo was born in 1954, 2014; Mau Ngo was born in 1978; Binh Ngo was born in 1966; Giap Than was born in 1944, 2004; Binh Than was born in 1956, 2016; Mau Than was born in 1968.

In summary, people born in the year of the dragon flying in the sky have enough talent, freedom, happiness, career, and money. If we can advise this age group, we should tell them to be satisfied with the life they have. When you are fully aware of your career and money, which can create the highest level of happiness, don’t try to chase the path of fame and fortune to the end. Be satisfied with what you achieve and you will have all the freedom and wealth.

4.5. Mau Thin people were born in 1988

People born in 1988 belong to the age of Mau Thin, Dai Lam Moc destiny – meaning big trees/ancient trees in the forest. The age of Mau Thin includes the combination of the heavenly stem Mau with the Earth element and the Earth branch Thin with the Earth element, from here creating the image of On Tinh Chi Long – the integrity dragon.

About personality: Having the destiny of an integrity dragon, Mau Thin is an intelligent, confident, strong person who likes authority and likes to manage the game. Sometimes, they seem arrogant and talkative, which can create bad impressions on others. They like to travel around the world and enjoy life. They are the type of people who are very enthusiastic, generous, straightforward, hate lies, and are very righteous and upright.

For career: Mau Thin people have both the basic characteristics of a dragon and the features of an ancient tree, so they become very confident with themselves. In them, there is a hidden ability to manage and lead the game, combined with a spirit of desire for power, so this type of person does not accept calmness. What they need is emotional harmony in life. When they have this, fame and career can inevitably follow.

If a Mau Thin person does not have a stable job until the age of 30, the main reason is not because they do not have enough talent or energy. The main reason is that they have not found harmony in their relationships and feelings with the people around them. As soon as Mau Thin people harmonize and connect with the emotional connections around them, they will quickly surpass and reach the pinnacle of their careers.

For love: It seems that love becomes a bit confusing for this type of person. Getting married early can bring married life to the brink of collapse, but if thought too carefully, they can easily fall into a single life. Part of the reason lies in their strongly independent nature, which sometimes makes them arrogant and unapproachable. Thus, many Mau Thin people still feel that single life is not boring, but exciting. They have more time for their careers and themselves and feel completely satisfied and happy with that choice.

For money: Almost all these people have abundant finances in life. However, before the age of 30, Mau Thin people sometimes encounter financial difficulties and instability in a few times. These ups and downs are temporary because they will quickly find their path to achieve financial freedom. The closer their future is, the more fulfilling and happy their lives will be.

Mau Thin is incompatible with the following ages:

Nham Thin was born in 1952, 2012; Giap Thin was born in 1964, 2024; Nham Tuat was born in 1982; Giap Tuat was born in 1934, 1994; Quy Meo was born in 1963, 2023; At Meo was born in 1975; Giap Ty was born in 1984; Nham Ty was born in 1972; Nham Dan was born in 1962, 2022; Giap Dan was born in 1974.

Mau Thin is suitable for the following ages:

Tan Dau was born in 1981; Dinh Dau was born in 1957, 2017; Binh Ngo was born in 1966; Canh Ngo was born in 1930, 1990; Mau Ngo was born in 1978; Binh Than was born in 1956, 2016; Canh Than was born in 1980; Mau Than was born in 1968.

In summary, Mau Thin people have an exciting life full of ups and downs. There are times when there are quite a lot of struggles, but there are also times when they are brilliant. If we have advice for those born in Mau Thin year, we recommend that they try to balance love and career. You need to stabilize and control your emotions before focusing on pursuing fame and fortune. Integrating both love and career aspects at the same time may cause you to return to the starting line.
