Relevant Zodiac Dates
Most calendars use the Gregorian calendar system, which assigns 365 days to each year (with an extra day added in leap years), and organizes those days into months. Each month has a different number of days, with the shortest month having 28 or 29 days, and the longest having 31 days. Western zodiacs use the Gregorian system.
Eastern zodiacs use the lunar calendar which is based on the phases of the moon, with each month corresponding to a complete cycle of the moon from new moon to new moon. The lunar cycle is approximately 29.5 days, so most lunar calendars have 12 lunar months in a year, with a total of 354 days.
To reconcile the difference between the two systems, some lunar calendars include an extra month periodically to bring the calendar in line with the seasons.
The calendar typically starts with the first day of January, which is assigned the number 1, and continues in sequential order until the last day of December, which is assigned the number 31. The number of days in each month and the position of each month in the year may differ depending on the calendar system used. In the Gregorian calendar, the new year day falls on January 1 whereas in the Chinese lunar calendar, the new year day usually falls between January 21 and February 20, depending on the cycle of the moon.
To determine your zodiac sign for any given year, you can look up the date of the Chinese New Year for that year and see if your birth date falls before or after that date because the zodiac sign changes at the Chinese New Year, not on January 1 as in the Gregorian calendar. If you were born between January 21 and February 20, the lunar year that you should use to determine your zodiac sign or animal is the one that corresponds to the Chinese New Year that occurred in the year of your birth. For example, if you were born in 1990, you would have been born in the year of the Horse if your birthdate was before February 15 of that year, and in the year of the Snake if your birth date was on or after February 15. This is because the Chinese New Year in 1990 fell on January 27.
