I got this sticker on my car when I bought it, I would like to know what's the translation.

 

I tried to use Google translate but without success.

 

Maybe it's not Chinese, but it looks so anyway.

 

I attached the photo.

 

Thanks :)

1. Chinese sexagenary cycle
The Chinese sexagenary cycle, also known as Stems-and-Branches, is a cyclic numeral system of 60 combinations of the two basic cycles, the ten Heavenly Stems (天干 TianGan),
and the twelve Earthly Branches (地支 DiZhi). TianGan-DiZhis were employed to designate the years before the reign of Wudi Emperor of Han Dynasty.

 

- the ten Heavenly Stems (天干 TianGan): 甲、乙、丙、丁、戊、己、庚、辛、壬、癸
- twelve Earthly Branches (地支 DiZhi): 子、丑、寅、卯、辰、巳、午、未、申、酉、戌、亥

 

2.  eight characters of the date of birth

2018        03        11        9:00am

戊戌         甲寅     壬寅    乙巳

@Zetsin so this is actually a date? Could you tell what is it?

 

@johnk the translations of each sign confuse me, I still don't understand what it means all together.
