立春Born in January or February 1954?
In the popular calendar, the 1954 zodiac year began with Chinese New Year on February 3, 1954. Anyone born from January 1 to February 2, 1954 belongs to the previous year, the Water Snake. BaZi (Four Pillars) astrology changes the year at Lichun, the start of spring, which fell on February 4, 1954 at about 16:28 Beijing time. That was after New Year, so if you were born between February 3 and February 3, 1954 (or on February 4 before about 16:28), the popular calendar makes you a Wood Horse while BaZi still counts you as a Water Snake.
