For those born in the year of the Rooster (1957, 1969, 1981, 1993), Acalanatha (不动明王) is their designated zodiac guardian. Acalanatha’s name translates to “the immovable king of wisdom”, relating to his preeminent position in Buddhist culture.

Worship surrounding Acalanatha has prevailed throughout the Middle Ages and into modern times — with sculptural and pictorial depictions of Acalanatha’s image being found in Nepal, Tibet, China and Japan.
