YOUR CHINESE ZODIAC
Choose your birth year
Supported dates: 1900–2100. Uses Chinese New Year as the boundary and Hong Kong/Beijing civil calendar dates, not a Beginning-of-Spring astrology convention. Your birth date is calculated on this page, without uploading or storing it.
Why can an animal differ by one year?
Chinese New Year does not fall on 1 January. A year-only result may be unsuitable for a birthday before that year’s Chinese New Year. With a full date, this tool uses the browser’s Chinese-calendar conversion and the resulting lunar year. Other cultural or astrological conventions may use a different boundary.
