Chinese Astrology! Lunar New Year 2021

---

When does the Chinese Year begin?

Because it depends on the moon, the date of Chinese New Year actually changes each year, but it will always fall some time between 21 January and 20 February. This year, 2021 is a year of the Ox, starting from February 12th, 2021 (Chinese lunar New Year Day) and lasting until January 30th, 2022.

2021 is The Year of the Metal Ox Chou

A great year is ahead of us in 2021. Everyone knows we need less drama and more stability. There will be time and space to heal. We can look forward to the Metal Ox year with hope for the future. The Ox energy gives us the ability to bring about positive and practical ways to solve problems. It gives us the power to stay focused. The ox is determined and unstoppable. This force is unbending and unyielding. You may call it stubborn but I call it trustworthy, faithful, loyal, steadfast, and unwavering. Those qualities tone down the drama of 2020 and give us a sense that we are safe in our world.
