When Is Lunar New Year?
Lunar New Year begins on the date (in East Asia) of the second new Moon after the winter solstice, which always takes place in late December. This means that the first day of the Lunar New Year can occur anytime between January 21 and February 20.
In 2023, this new Moon occurs in China on Sunday, January 22, marking the start of a new lunar year.
| Year | Lunar New Year | Chinese Zodiac Sign |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | Sunday, January 22 | Rabbit |
| 2024 | Saturday, February 10 | Dragon |
| 2025 | Wednesday, January 29 | Snake |
| 2026 | Tuesday, February 17 | Horse |
(Note: Due to the difference in time zones, the new Moon may technically occur one calendar date earlier or later in China. )
Why Are There Different New Years?
The traditional Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, which means that it is based on astronomical observations of the Sun’s position in the sky and the Moon’s phases. This ancient calendar dates back to 14th century BCE (whereas the Gregorian calendar was introduced in 1582). The Chinese lunisolar calendar shares some similarities with the Hebrew calendar, which is also lunisolar, and it has influenced other East Asian calendars, such as those of Korea and Vietnam.
