THE MONKEY

8th of February 2016

Monkeys are the ninth of all zodiac animals. According to the myth, the Jade Emperor said that the order would be determined by the order when they arrived at the party. Monkey, Rooster and Dog are in a different state and help the gods to defeat evil spirits. Then they left together. Since they arrived at the same time, the Jade Emperor followed the order in which they met the gods in a different state. So Monkey was ninth. Since monkeys like to eat peaches, they also became associated with longevity over time. In Chinese culture, peaches are symbols of longevity. The monkey is yang.

The date of the Chinese New Year is determined by the Chinese calendar, a lunisolar calendar. The same calendar is used in countries that have adopted the Confucian and Buddhism tradition and in many cultures influenced by the Chinese. Chinese New Year starts on the first day of the new year containing a new moon (some sources even include New Year's Eve) 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, the Chinese New Year falls on different dates each year, on a date between January 21 and February 21.

Some web sites say the year 2017 is the 4717th Chinese year. If you cannot find the explanation, here is a possible answer for you: The Yellow King's inauguration was held in the spring of 2697 B.C. But the day that was used as the first day of the year was the winter solstice, which was around December 23rd, 2698 B.C. Today's January 1st meant nothing to the Yellow King. If we count that extra eight days in 2698 B.C., then year 2014 is the 4714th Chinese year
