2022 Chinese New Year is a meaningful one for many people because after last year’s Lunar New Year, the government finally allows people to return home for the New Year and they can finally celebrate the New Year with their families.
After a lively first day of the Lunar New Year, do you know when the Lunar New Year will fall next year in 2023? Lunar New Year in 2023 falls on January 22 (Sunday), which means that New Year’s Eve falls on January 21 (Saturday).
2023 Lunar New Year is the earliest one in the last 10 years, as it falls on January 22.
Year 2023 is the Year of Rabbit, which is also known as the Year of the Capricorn Rabbit. Because of the Heavenly Stem Capricorn, 2023 is also called the Year of the Water Rabbit, and because the color of water is black, 2023 is also called the Year of the Black Rabbit.
The first day of the Lunar New Year in 2023 falls on January 22nd, which is less than a year (365 days) away from now according to the solar calendar. Hopefully the epidemic will really end soon and we can celebrate the New Year next year with more pomp and circumstance.
