A reference table of the Chinese zodiac animal for every year from 1900 to 2100, with the exact date of Spring Festival (Lunar New Year) and the exact date and time of Li Chun (Start of Spring, 立春) for each year.
Two conventions for when the zodiac year starts
Most zodiac charts list only years. That is enough for anyone born between early March and December, but not for a birthday in January or February, because the animal year can start on two different dates:
- Spring Festival (Lunar New Year): the first day of the first lunar month. This is the everyday, popular convention. It falls between January 21 and February 20.
- Li Chun (Start of Spring): the solar term that opens the year in the Chinese sexagenary (stem-branch) calendar and in BaZi. It falls on February 3, 4 or 5 and is given to the minute in the tables below.
In this table the year row is the stem-branch year, which begins at Li Chun. The Spring Festival column lets you apply the popular convention instead.
How to read the table for January and February birthdays
- Born on or after the later of the two dates: both conventions give the animal in the Year column.
- Born before both dates: both conventions give the animal of the previous year.
- Born between the two dates: the conventions disagree. The Spring Festival convention follows the lunar year, the Li Chun convention follows the stem-branch year.
- Born on the day of Li Chun: use the time in the last column (Beijing time, UTC+8). Before that moment the previous year still applies under the Li Chun convention.
Two examples from the table below:
- 1984: Spring Festival was 1984-02-02 and Li Chun was 1984-02-04 at 23:18. Someone born on 1984-02-03 is a Rat by Spring Festival (1984, Jiǎzǐ), but a Pig by Li Chun, because the stem-branch year 1983 (Guǐhài) was still running.
- 2026: Li Chun was 2026-02-04 at 04:01 and Spring Festival was 2026-02-17. Someone born on 2026-02-10 is a Horse by Li Chun (2026, Bǐngwǔ), but a Snake by Spring Festival, because the lunar year 2025 was still running.
For the Li Chun convention, convert the full birth date and local clock time to Beijing time (UTC+8) before comparing with the last column. The conversion can change the calendar date, so do this even when the local birth date is the day before or after the listed Li Chun date. For example, 2026-02-03 at 13:00 in Los Angeles is 2026-02-04 at 05:00 in Beijing, after Li Chun: the Li Chun result is Horse, while the Spring Festival result is still Snake. On the day of Li Chun, the exact time takes precedence over the date-only steps above.

Data and method
- Calendar method: Spring Festival is the Gregorian date of lunar month 1, day 1. Li Chun is taken from a standard solar-term table. Stem-branch years are counted from the sexagenary cycle (1984 is Jiǎzǐ) and cross-checked against the year pillar at the Li Chun moment.
- Cross-check: all 200 years from 1901 to 2100 were compared with the daily Gregorian–Lunar conversion tables of the Hong Kong Observatory (hko.gov.hk, "Gregorian-Lunar Calendar Conversion Table"), which mark the first day of the first lunar month and the date of Li Chun ("Spring Commences"). Result (checked 2026-10-19): the Spring Festival date and the Li Chun date matched in all 200 years.
- Not independently checked: the Li Chun clock times. The Hong Kong Observatory tables give dates only. The year 1900 is outside the HKO table range, so it rests on the calculation alone.
- Time zone: every date and time is in Beijing time (UTC+8), applied to all years.
- Last updated: 2026-10-19.
