About the Chinese Lunar Calendar
Lunisolar System
The Chinese calendar is lunisolar, combining lunar months with solar year adjustments via leap months. A standard year has 12 months; a leap year has 13.
Solar Terms (节气)
The 24 solar terms divide the solar year into equal segments, guiding agriculture and traditional festivals. Key terms include the Spring Equinox and Winter Solstice.
Zodiac & Ganzhi Cycle
Each year is associated with one of 12 zodiac animals combined with Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches to form a 60-year Ganzhi cycle.
