The Wood Dragon personality
Wood Dragon brings big ambition with a more thoughtful, growth-minded style.
Among Dragon years, the Wood Dragon stands out for mixing the Dragon’s natural force, pride, and appetite for big goals with Wood’s upward, outward, constructive energy. This is a Dragon that still wants to lead, but usually prefers to build something lasting rather than simply dominate the room. In the sexagenary cycle, Jia Wood is yang Wood: direct, expansive, and idealistic.
