What is the Year of the Rabbit Meaning?
There are 12 animals of the Zodiac that run in rotation through the years. The rabbit is the fourth symbol and is the symbol of 2023. The rabbit is earnest in all that it does and just asks the same of others.
In the Chinese culture, the rabbit is known to be the luckiest out of all the twelve animals. It symbolizes mercy, elegance, and beauty. People who are born in the year of the rabbit are calm and peaceful. They avoid fighting and arguing at all times, but are artistic and have good taste in life.
