The Chinese Lunar New Year is the oldest
Chronological event in continuous practice. It dates from 2600 BC,
when the Emperor Huang Ti introduced it. Like the Western calendar,
The Chinese calendar is a yearly one, based on the cycles of the
moon.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar names each year
after an animal, in a twelve year cycle. Legend has it that the
Lord Buddha summoned all the animals to come to him before he
departed from earth. Only twelve came to bid him farewell and as a
reward he named a year after each one. It is thought that the
animal ruling the year in which a person is born, has a profound
influence on their personality. "This is the animal that hides
in your heart."
The Twelve (12) year cycle for this Puzzle is
