Lunar New Year 2023

Celebrated by one-fourth of the world's population, Lunar New Year begins on Sunday, January 22nd. This will be the year of the Water Rabbit.  The year's name is a combination of 10 Heavenly Stems and 12 Earthly Branches creating a sequence of year names that eventually repeat.
