When does a zodiac year change?
A zodiac year changes at Lunar New Year, not January 1.
People born in January or February need a full birth date rather than a calendar-year lookup.
Zodiac, stems-branches and elements are folk culture, useful for understanding festivals and art rather than predicting a life outcome.

How the Chinese zodiac works
Understand lunar years, the 12-year cycle and the 60-year stem-branch cycle.
1. Lunar-year boundary
The animal changes at Lunar New Year, so a full birth date is more reliable.
2. A 12-year cycle
Twelve animals repeat in a fixed order.
3. Stems, branches and elements
Stems and branches form a 60-year cycle associated with elements and yin-yang.
How to experience zodiac culture in China
Use the zodiac as a lens for festivals and art.
Spring Festival fairs
Look for the year's animal in lanterns, prints, paper cuts and stage decorations.
Museums and historic buildings
Find the twelve animals in sculpture, objects, roof tiles and decorative patterns.
Stamps and crafts
Zodiac stamps, clay figures and paper cuts are accessible cultural souvenirs.
Respect the context
Treat zodiac associations as folk conversation, not science or life advice.
The zodiac race legend
A popular animal-race legend explains the order, with regional variations.
