This year it is the year of the RABBIT but it changes every year, they say the animal ruling the year you were born will influence your life.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar is 2,640 years older than ours and never begins on January 1st, nor does it begin on the same date each year.
Here is a list of what animal has been and is still to come.
