Today is the Chinese New Year. The Chinese calendar defines the lunisolar month containing the winter solstice as the eleventh month, meaning that Chinese New Year usually falls on the second new moon after the winter solstic - so the date varies each year.
2024 is known as the Year of the Dragon.. why different animals each year?
The Chinese zodiac, or shengxiao, refers to the circle of 12 animals that measure the cycles of time.
Legend has it that a god beckoned all animals to bid him farewell before his departure from Earth. Only 12 of them, namely the tiger, rabbit, rat, ox, dragon, pig, monkey, snake, horse, goat, rooster, dog arrived, with each given a place of honor in a year based on the order of arrival.
Why is there no cat?
It's a pity for cat lovers, but here's the story. At that time, the cat and the rat were good friends. The cat said to the rat: "We should arrive early to sign up, but I usually get up late." The rat then promised to give the cat a wakeup call. But on that very morning, the rat was too excited to recall the promise. The result was that the cat was too late for the party.
So the rat was the faster than the Ox?
Of course not. But he was the smartest. The rat thought up a good idea. He made the ox carry him on condition that he sang for the ox. When the ox was almost at the finishing line, the rat slid in front.
Different people born under each zodiac sign are believed to have different personalities that represent animals of the year. Sometimes people consult with their zodiac signs for compatibility before getting married.
So to find the cache you simply have to work out where the years placed in the race.
