Born on May 23? Here's your birth element
In the Korean birth chart, your birth element comes from the exact day you were born, not just the date on the calendar. That's why two people born on May 23 in different years can be completely different people. Find your year below.
Your birth month: the Snake month
May 23 falls in the Snake month (巳), early summer, when Fire is strongest. You were born as Fire rises. Snake-month people are sharper than they look and warm up slowly. At work you read the room first and move once you're sure.
