Origin of New Year's Day <br /> New Year's Day is said to have originated from Zhuanxu, one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and has a history of more than 4,000 years. The word "New Year's Day" first appeared in "Book of Jin": "Emperor Zhuanxu took the first month of summer as the beginning of the year, which was actually the spring of the New Year's Day." Chinese New Year has always referred to the first day of the first lunar month in the Xia calendar (lunar calendar, lunar calendar). The calculation method of the first day of the first lunar month was not unified before the reign of Emperor Wu of Han. Therefore, the month and day of New Year's Day are not consistent throughout the ages. The Xia calendar of the Xia Dynasty took the first month (January) as the first month, the Yin calendar of the Shang Dynasty took the twelfth month (December) as the first month, and the Zhou calendar of the Zhou Dynasty took the eleventh month (November) as the first month. After Qin Shi Huang unified China, he took the Yangchun month (October) as the first month, and the first day of October as New Year's Day. Later, in order to "follow the Xia calendar to follow the agricultural season and the Western calendar to facilitate statistics", the Gregorian calendar was decided to be used in the first year of the Republic of China (actually used in 1912), and January 1 of the Gregorian calendar was designated as "New Year", but it was not called "New Year's Day". On September 27, 1949, the First Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, while deciding to establish the People's Republic of China, also decided to adopt the world-wide Gregorian calendar, which we call the Gregorian calendar. New Year's Day refers to the first day of the year in the Western calendar.
