The attributes of people born in the Year of the Dragon – said to be the luckiest of all Chinese zodiac years in which to be born – are many. This is what some say: Magnanimous, stately, vigorous, strong, self-assured, proud, noble, direct, dignified, eccentric, intellectual, fiery, passionate, decisive, pioneering, artistic, generous, loyal. HOWEVER - they can also be tactless, arrogant, imperious, tyrannical, demanding, intolerant, dogmatic, violent, impetuous, brash.

These  were all 'dragon-year' babies:

 John Lennon (1940): Singer-songwriter and a founding member of The Beatles.

Salvador Dali (1904): Eccentric and highly talented painter and sculptor.

Che Guevara (born 1928): The Argentine-born revolutionary.
