When is the Spring Festival in 2018? Why are you so late?
After entering the twelfth lunar month, the 2018 Spring Festival is getting closer and closer. While everyone is looking forward to the New Year, they also find that this Spring Festival comes relatively late. So when is the Spring Festival in 2018? Why is the 2018 Spring Festival so late? For more details about the 2018 Lunar New Year calendar, please visit the Fortune Teller website for consultation!When is the Spring Festival in 2018?The first day of the first lunar month of the year 2018 (Lunar calendar)Aquarius (Friday, February 16, 2018) 【Today’s lunar calendar is suitable】 Breaking ground, drilling, repairing graves, recruiting sons-in-law, taking up posts, building, praying for blessings, fasting and offering sacrifices, receiving wealth and seeking heirs, erecting pillars, planting, building houses, offering sacrifices, traveling, raising livestock, seeking wealth and seeking medical treatment, lifting and consecrating.

A month is about 29.5 days, and 12 months is 353 to 355 days, which is about 11 days less than the Gregorian calendar.If the difference in the number of days between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar continues to remain like this, the Spring Festival will inevitably be celebrated in the summer. Therefore, in order to keep the time of the Spring Festival in the Gregorian calendar relatively stable, my country has adopted the "19 years and 7 leap years" method, that is, adding 7 leap years to the 19 lunar years. In this way, if there is no leap month in the previous lunar year, the Spring Festival of the next year will be about 11 days earlier than the previous year; if there is a leap month in the previous lunar year, the Spring Festival of the next year will be about 19 days later than the previous year. Since the lunar year of 2017, Dingyou (commonly known as the Year of the Rooster), has a leap month in June, the whole year has 384 days, 19 days more than the Gregorian year. Therefore, the Spring Festival in 2018, the Lunar Year of Wuxu (commonly known as the Year of the Dog), will be delayed by 19 days compared to 2017. The Spring Festival in 2017 was on January 28, so the Spring Festival in 2018 naturally fell on February 16. Since 2018 is an ordinary year with 354 days, 11 days less than the Gregorian calendar year, the Spring Festival of 2019, the Lunar Year of the Pig (commonly known as the Year of the Pig), falls on February 5. Astronomical experts said that the corresponding dates of the Lunar New Year and the Gregorian calendar vary greatly, and the "early Spring Festival" and "late Spring Festival" can differ by a full 30 days. As far as this century is concerned, the latest Spring Festival occurred on February 19, so this year's Spring Festival is not the "latest". |
