How does beginning of spring calculate the zodiac signs born after the Spring Festival?

Zodiac should be counted from beginning of spring, not from the first day of the lunar calendar.

For example, the turn of spring in 20 17 is the seventh day of the first lunar month, so people born before the seventh day of the first lunar month should be monkeys instead of chickens. People born after the seventh day of the first lunar month in 20 17 and before the spring of 20 18 should be regarded as monkeys.

According to the lunar calendar, the zodiac should be based on beginning of spring. However, due to the loss of traditional culture, many people will use the New Year's Day of the Gregorian calendar or the first day of the first lunar month to distinguish their zodiac signs, which is incorrect.

Extended data:

According to historical records, the standard beginning of spring method can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. At present, China calendar, traditional numerology, divination and other folk customs all calculate the zodiac based on beginning of spring.

This is because in ancient China, the Chinese zodiac was used to record the year, month and day. The zodiac corresponds to the twelve earthly branches. For example, ugly children correspond to rats, cows, tigers and rabbits. The year of the rat, the year of the ox, the year of the tiger and the year of the rabbit.

Because the chronology of trunks and branches is based on the alternation of the sun and branches, it is the beginning of beginning of spring every year, the boundary between trunks and branches is beginning of spring, and beginning of spring is the beginning of a new year.
