立春Born in January or February 1937?
In the popular calendar, the 1937 zodiac year began with Chinese New Year on February 11, 1937. Anyone born from January 1 to February 10, 1937 belongs to the previous year, the Fire Rat. BaZi (Four Pillars) astrology changes the year at Lichun, the start of spring, which fell on February 4, 1937 at about 13:26 Beijing time. That was before New Year, so if you were born after Lichun on February 4 and before February 11, 1937, BaZi already counts you as a Fire Ox while the popular calendar still says Fire Rat.
