#YearOfTheRabbit 2023 jzebraa
Chinese New Year is the festival that celebrates the beginning of a new year
on the traditional lunisolar and solar Chinese calendar.
The year 2023, which begins on January 22, 2023 (Chinese New Year), and ends on February 9, 2024, is known as the year of the "Water Rabbit".
Rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, or pig are among the signs of the Chinese zodiac. The Chinese new year of 2023 is predicted to be optimistic.
Year of the Rabbit – or the Year of the Cat, depending on which cultural traditions they follow – as the start of the Lunar New Year. The Lunar New Year is sometimes called the Chinese New Year, because it follows a calendar that was developed in China; but it is also celebrated in various parts of Asia, such as Korea and Vietnam. Tibetan and Mongolian cultures follow a similar calendar that will start the Year of the Rabbit about a month later, on Feb. 20.
A heavenly stem (one of five elements, which fall into the yin or yang category) is paired with an earthly branch (one of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals).
Gui Mao is the 40th element of the Chinese sexagenary cycle – the Heavenly Stem “Gui” represents water, whereas the earthly branch “Mao” represents Rabbit. That makes 2023 the Year of the Water Rabbit.
