When is the Chinese New Year 2023?

The 2023 Chinese New Year Day is on Sunday, January 22, 2023 in China's time zone. This day is the new moon day of the first Chinese lunar month in the Chinese Lunar Calendar system. The exact new moon time is at 4:53 on 2023-01-22, in the China time zone.

Chinese New Year 2023 animal sign is the Black Rabbit. Chinese calendar combines solar, lunar and 60 Stem-Branch counting systems. The 60 Stem-Branch calendar uses the names of Yin Yang Five Elements (Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth) and 12 animals to rank the sequences. Five elements are connected to five colors - White, Black, Green, Red, and Brown. So Chinese use the color animal name to count the year. The name of 2023 is the Female Water Rabbit. Black is connected to Water. Therefore, 2023 is also called Black Water Rabbit Year.

The first day of the Black Rabbit year is not the Chinese New Year Day in Chinese Astrology. The first day of the Tiger month is the first day of the Chinese Astrology year. This day is called Start of Spring, which is the date when the sun enters the 315th degree on the tropical zodiac. This day is around February 4, each year. 2023 Chinese Black Rabbit starts on February 4, 2023 in China's time zone. That means the Chinese Lunar New Year is not the first day of Black Rabbit Year. If a baby is born before February 4, 2023, then the baby's zodiac sign is the Tiger, not Rabbit.

How Old is China?

The Chinese believe that the first king of China was the Yellow King (he was not the first emperor of China). The Yellow King became king in 2697 B.C., therefore China will enter the 4720th year on Sunday, January 22, 2023. Also, the Chinese Year uses the cycle of 60 Stem-Branch counting systems and the Female Water Rabbit is the 40th Stem-Branch in the cycle. Since 4720 = (60 * 78) + 40, therefore 2023 of Water Rabbit Year is the 4720th Chinese Year.

Some web sites say the year 2023 is the 4720th Chinese year. If you cannot find the explanation, here is a possible answer for you. The Yellow King's inauguration was held in the spring of 2697 B.C. But the calendar of Yellow King used the winter solstice day as the first day of the year. The winter solstice was on around December 23rd, 2698 B.C. Today's January 1st means nothing to Yellow King. If we count that extra eight days in 2698 B.C. for a year, then the year 2023 is the 4721st Chinese year.

2023 is the 4720th Chinese Year. However, Chinese civilization is up to 8000 years. 大地灣文化 The Dadiwan relics show the civilization of houses, palaces, cooking tools, color pottery, weapons, artifacts and agriculture. Archaeologists doubt the I-Ching was invested there.
