As everyone gets ready to celebrate the Lunar New Year, the capricious Jia Chen Wood Dragon Year already made its entrance almost a week ahead.

This is because Li Chun falls on Feb 4, 2024 (1626 hours), while the first day of the first month in the lunar calendar is Feb 10, 2024. This also means children born after 4.26pm (1626 hours) on Feb 4, 2024 are considered to be born in the year of the Dragon.
