The Chinese Lunar Calendar Based on the cycles of the moon, the Chinese Lunar Calendar
is different than the western calendar. To help you
better understand the differences between the Western
(Gregorian) Calendar and the Chinese Lunar Calendar, we
have provided a set of Year by Year conversion charts in
Adobe Acrobat format. You can display them or
download and share them.
Click
on a year (1901 to 2100) to select that year. The conversion
table is in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format (you can download the
Reader for FREE - click the button at right).
The uncertainty in the calculation of the
time of moon phases and solar terms decades
ahead may be up to a few minutes. If the
time of new moon (first day of the lunar
month) or solar term is close to midnight,
the dates of the relevant lunar month or
solar term in the "Conversion Table" may
have a discrepancy of one day. Such
situation will occur on the new moons on 28
September 2057, 4 September 2089 and 7
August 2097, the Winter Solstice of 2021,
Vernal Equinox of 2051, Spring Commences of
2083 and Vernal Equinox of 2084.
