Best Answer

The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, incorporating elements of a lunar calendar with those of a solar calendar. A year in the Chinese calendar starts on the second new moon after the winter solstice, unless an intercalary month moves it to the third moon. The current year (February 10, 2013, 2013-January 30, 2014) is Guisi-year (year of the Snake).
