Spring Festival
Glossary · Last updated: 2026-07-26
Spring Festival (春节) is the common name for Chinese Lunar New Year, the multi-day festival when families reunite and a new Sheng Xiao year begins.
For astrology apps, the critical detail is calendar math: the animal switches at Lunar New Year eve/day, not January 1.
Travel season
Chunyun (Spring Festival travel rush) is the world's largest annual migration. Culturally, the date anchors far more than zodiac labels.
