　　Brief Introduction of the Spring Festival

　　Chinese New Year or Spring Festival simplified Chinese: 春節; traditional Chinese: 春節; pinyin: Chūnjié, or the Lunar New Year simplified Chinese: 農曆新年; traditional Chinese: 農曆新年; pinyin: Nónglì xīnnián, is the most important of the traditional

　　Chinese holidays. It is an important holiday in East Asia. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first lunar month Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called the Lantern festival simplified Chinese: 元宵節; traditional Chinese: 元宵節; pinyin: yuánxiāojié.

　　Chinese New Year's Eve is known as Chúxì 除夕. Chu literally means

　　means新年祝福語中英文

　　Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had a strong influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbours, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans, Mongolians, Nepalese,

　　Bhutanese, Vietnamese, and formerly the Japanese before 1873. In Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and other countries with significant Chinese

　　populations, Chinese New Year is also celebrated, largely by overseas Chinese, but it is

　　not part of the traditional culture of these countries.

　　The New Year Date

　　The lunisolar Chinese calendar determines Chinese New Year dates. The calendar is also used in countries that have adopted or have been influenced by Han culture notably the Koreans, Japanese and Vietnamese and may have a common ancestry with the similar New Years festivals outside East Asia such as Iran, and historically, the Bulgars lands.

　　Chinese New Year starts on the first day of the new year containing a new moon some sources include New Year's Eve[citation needed] and ends on the Lantern Festival

　　fourteen days later. This occurs around the time of the full moon as each lunation is about 29.53 days in duration. In the Gregorian calendar, Chinese New Year falls on different dates each year, a date between January 21 and February 20. This means that the

　　holiday usually falls on the second very rarely third new moon after the winter solstice. In traditional Chinese Culture, lichun is a solar term marking the start of spring, which occurs about February 4.

　　The dates for the Spring Festival from 1996 to 2019 in the Gregorian calendar are at the right, along with the year's presiding animal zodiac and its earthly branch. The names of the earthly branches have no English counterparts and are not the Chinese translations of the animals. Alongside the 12-year cycle of the animal zodiac there is a 10-year cycle of heavenly stems. Each of the ten heavenly stems is associated with one of the five elements of Chinese astrology, namely: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. The

　　elements are rotated every two years while a yin and yang association alternates every year. The elements are thus distinguished: Yang Wood, Yin Wood, Yang Fire, Yin Fire, etc. These produce a combined cycle that repeats every 60 years. For example, the year of the Yang Fire Rat occurred in 1936 and in 1996, 60 years apart.

　　Many confuse their Chinese birth-year with their Gregorian birth-year. As the Chinese New Year starts in late January to mid February, the Chinese year dates from 1 January until that day in the new Gregorian year remain unchanged from the previous Gregorian year. For example, the 1989 year of the snake began on 6 February 1989. The year 1990 is considered by some people to be the year of the horse. However, the 1989 year of the snake officially ended on 26 January 1990. This means that anyone born from January 1 to January 25, 1990 was actually born in the year of the snake rather than the year of the horse.

　　Many online Chinese Sign calculators do not account for the non-alignment of the two calendars, incorrectly using Gregorian-calendar years rather than official Chinese New Year dates.

　　Chunyun 春運

　　The period around Chinese New Year is also the time of the largest human migration, when migrant workers in China, as well as overseas Chinese around the world travel home to have reunion dinners with their families on Chinese New Year's eve. More interurban trips are taken in mainland China in this 40-day period than the total population of China.
