Prepare for the Year of the Yin Water Rabbit in 2023!

the Yin Water Rabbit

The year of your birth determines your Chinese sign or animal. The only caveat is that, in this case, the “year” refers to the Chinese lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian or Western calendars. The most popular date for Chinese New Year, particularly in relation to astrology and Feng Shui, is the halfway point between the December 20 solstice and the March 21 equinox. There are a number of other dates that can also be used to determine Chinese New Year, some associated with the December solstice and others with the New Moon in Aquarius. The traditional date for this is February 4.

If you were born between January 1 and February 4, the Chinese animal sign you were born under was the one from the year before. Your animal sign is decided by your birth year, not your birth month, according to popular Chinese astrology. Your four primary Chinese animals—one for each of your birth year, month, day, and time—will be revealed via a more thorough reading of Chinese astrology. In this article, we’ll concentrate on the common “sign of the year” format.

To find your Chinese sign, look up your birth year in the table below. Remember to look up the animal for the year before your birth if your birthday is earlier than February 4 in the calendar. For instance, you might research the animal governing in 1978, the Chinese year that rules your birthday, if you were born on January 10, 1979. (it runs from February 4, 1978-February 4, 1979)
