About this page

  • Years are Gregorian years. Each row's animal starts at that year's Spring Festival (or at the Lichun moment, under the Lichun rule).
  • For example, the Spring Festival in 2026 is on 17 February, so people born from 1 January to 16 February 2026 are still Snakes under the Spring Festival rule.

The readings on this page are traditional, for entertainment only, and not a basis for decisions.

How it is calculated

  1. The Spring Festival date and the Lichun moment for each year are calculated with lunar-javascript under the rules of the Chinese calendar (GB/T 33661-2017). Lichun times are in Beijing time (UTC+8), to the minute.
  2. The animal, stem-branch and element in each row apply to people born after that year's Spring Festival (or Lichun). People born before it belong to the previous year.
  3. All calculations are done in your browser. The birth details you enter are not sent to any server and are saved only in this browser.
