My mom says that I was born in the year of the Dragon (I was born in June of 1988) I was just wondering if this was true because I want to get a small Dragon tattoo on my shoulder. Help please?

Yes, the year of the Dragon is in 1988. You will have to check the exact dates but it started from about Feb 1, 1988 through Jan 26, 1989. You can check online for the Chinse zodiac - which is based on a 12 year cycle. Besides the year, there are three different elements, fire, wood and water. 1988 is a wood dragon- but agian double

Dragons have strong personalities. They are self -assured and confident in their own abilities. They do not suffer fools easily, and become impatient with people who they perceive throw in the towel too readily: for their own part, they can put up quite a fight. Dragons are honest, and often speak their minds, even when this is not appropriate. They are popular if somewhat inconsistent, full of energy, charismatic and colourful, strong, enthusiastic and inspiring.
The dragon is the national emblem of China where it is regarded with great esteem. Unfortunately in the West, the dragon has a poorer reputation, requiring the likes of Saint George to slay them. According to the Chinese, rather than bringing fire and destruction, they bring the four great blessings of long life, virtue, harmony and wealth. Created from fable, the dragon leads the famous Chinese new year carnival, which provide a perfect clue to the dragon's larger than life personality.
Dragons are generally showy characters - hot heads that allow their hearts to rule their heads. Dragon people love to stimulate people around them. They are headstrong and determined, and will see things through to the bitter end, even if the original aims of such action are no longer valid.
The dragon is averse to any form of routine, preferring the freedom to pursue his or her own agenda. Should a dragon feel imprisoned either mentally or physically they will become very erratic. Once in decline, a dragon tends to become lazy, fat and bitter. The outspoken nature of the dragon, and their tunnel vision may make him or her appear brash. However, by nature the dragon is a romantic.
The dragon is a strongly masculine sign, and as such female dragons have a harder time than most, and they do not make natural mothers or nurses.

Yes, 1988 is the year of the dragon, and a June birthday fits into the year of the dragon. I know this because my cousin was born in 1988 and was named Drake because he was born in the year of the dragon.

That's pretty neat. I am the year of the Rat. 1984! Your mother is correct. 1988 is the year of the dragon.
