2062 Chinese zodiac: Year of the Water Horse
The 2062 Chinese year will run from Thursday 9 February 2062 to Sunday 28 January 2063.
Its sign is the Yang Water Horse: 壬午 (Rén-wǔ) in the 60-year cycle.
Born 1 January – 8 February 2062? Then you belong to the previous Chinese year: the Metal Snake of 2061.
Chinese New Year or Lichun?
Most calendars change the animal at Chinese New Year. Four Pillars (BaZi) astrology starts the year at Lichun, the Start of Spring, instead. For births around the turn of the year the two counts differ:
- 3 February 2062 (Lichun day): by Lichun, Metal Snake before 21:46 China time and Water Horse from then on; by Chinese New Year, Metal Snake.
- 4–8 February 2062: Metal Snake by Chinese New Year, Water Horse by Lichun.
Dates and times in China time. The Chinese zodiac calculator converts them for your birthplace and shows both counts.
