Enter your full birth date to find your traditional Chinese Zodiac animal using the Li Chun solar-term boundary.
Your birth animal
Your date can reveal the traditional animal and element associated with your birth year.
A cultural symbol for reflection, not a fixed definition.
Aveni uses Li Chun, not January 1. On the exact Li Chun date, birth time, location and time zone can affect the result.
The Chinese Zodiac assigns each year an animal in a repeating 12-year cycle. Traditional BaZi and solar-calendar practice uses Li Chun, the beginning of spring, as an important year boundary. This is why people born in January or early February may belong to the previous animal year.
Many simple calculators switch animals on January 1. Traditional systems often use Li Chun, which falls around February 4 and can change slightly by year.
The animal is a cultural symbol and reflection prompt. It is not a fixed definition of your personality or destiny.
