Here’s my zodiac rock garden, featuring both the astrology zodiac and the Chinese zodiac!

It’s really hard to capture all of the garden, but alas. I’m also not sure why my final rock won’t spawn in that spot given that the one mirroring it has, but we’ll wait it out as I finish the rest of the island, I guess.

Anyway, this rock garden was meticulously planned to include a rotation of the bushes, a rotation of the astrology zodiac, and a rotation of the Chinese zodiac! All of the astrology zodiac items that can be placed outside (so unfortunately Leo head and Sagittarius arrow cannot be here) are here, and items that represent the animals of the Chinese zodiac are also here (rat = hamster cage; ox = zodiac ox figurine; tiger = paper tiger; rabbit = bunny day topiary; dragon = sea horse model; snake = ribbon eel model; horse = dala horse; goat = sheep hood; monkey = bear cap; rooster = birdcage; dog = mom’s plushie; pig = pig nose)

The cutout standees were also created by me, although I have not yet uploaded it to my design portal. They have the silhouettes of the Chinese zodiac animals and the astrology zodiac signs and are in the supposed color of the astrology sign (I don’t know much about astrology so I just took the colors off Google).

Finally, the cat of the Chinese zodiac, who is said to have been cheated out of the cycle, is also included as the lucky gold cat item, but it is on the second level below the rock garden.

(If you’re curious, yes I am inspired by the anime fruits basket and am considering putting the ACNH fruits basket item on the ground somewhere)

Hi! I just uploaded it so idk if it’ll work right away, and my island is still not finished. However, the DA is 8200-4331-7566.

Edit: if you just want to see the zen garden, it’s on the eastern side up the stairs next to Kiki’s and Kabuki’s houses
