Chinese Calendar 2008
This page is a continuation from previous
Chinese Calendar 2008
for the months of July to December 2008. Unlike the Gregorian Calendar, this calendar does not count years in an infinite sequence but have names that are re-used every 60 years. Each year is assigned a name that consists of two components namely "Celestial Stemm" and "Terrestrial Branch". The first component is:
- jia
- yi
- bing
- ding
- wu
- ji
- geng
- xin
- ren
- gui
The second component is named after the 12 animals:
- Rat
- Ox
- Tiger
- Rabbit
- Dragon
- Snake
- Horse
- Goat
- Monkey
- Rooster
- Dog
- Pig
By combining the two components sequentially, the 60 year cycle is obtained.
