2027 Chinese Zodiac: Year of the Fire Goat
2027 is the Year of the Fire Goat — but it doesn’t begin on January 1. The Goat year starts at Chinese New Year on February 6, 2027, and runs to January 25, 2028.
That start date matters most if you’re expecting a baby in early 2027: a child born before February 6 isn’t a Goat at all, but a Cheval de Feu from 2026. Here’s the full picture, boundary and all.
2027 at a glance
The quick version first. 2027 is an upcoming Goat year, and like every zodiac year it follows the lunar calendar — so the very start of 2027 still belongs to the year before. (You’ll also see this sign written as Sheep or Ram; 羊 covers all three — we use Goat throughout.)

Avec qui la Chèvre est censée s'accorder
La compatibilité traditionnelle place la Chèvre dans le trio Rabbit–Goat–Pig , lui donne une association privilégiée avec Cheval, et lui oppose le Bœuf comme opposition classique.
Du folklore, pas un verdict
Best-matched in tradition: Rabbit, Pig, and Horse. Classic friction: Goat and Ox. But no birth year decides whether two people get along — communication, values, and maturity do.

Not every Goat is a Fire Goat
A Goat year comes round every 12 years, but the Fire Goat, 丁未, repeats only every 60. The last one was 1967; after 2027 the next won’t arrive until 2087. Here’s how the five Goat types differ.
| Type de Chèvre | Années d'exemple | How it differs from the Fire Goat |
|---|---|---|
| Chèvre de Bois | 1955, 2015 | Care aimed at growth — cooperative and gently developmental. |
| Chèvre de Feu | 1967, 2027, 2087 | The warmest, most expressive Goat — feelings worn openly. |
| Chèvre de Terre | 1979, 2039 | La plus ancrée — une attention stable, pragmatique, axée sur le confort. |
| Chèvre de Métal | 1991, 2051 | Warmth with a spine — firmer standards under the softness. |
| Chèvre d'Eau | 2003, 2063 | The most fluid and intuitive — highly attuned to undercurrent. |

Where 2027 sits in the cycle
2027 follows the headline-grabbing 2026, l'Année du Cheval de Feu and comes before the 2028, l'Année du Singe de Terre. After the Horse’s high-energy year, tradition reads the Goat year as a gentler, more relationship- and home-focused stretch — a softer note in the run of years.
That’s the symbolic framing, not a forecast. The dates above are the part you can actually rely on.
