History: The Chinese New Year is a unique cycle wherein the date of the new year changes annually. The date of the new year in the Chinese cycle is determined by the new moon that occurs in late January or February. Unlike the Gregorian calendar of the United Kingdom, the Chinese calendar is based on a 12-year cycle. The rabbit is the fourth animal of this cycle. According to Chinese symbology, rabbits are said to be gentle, sensitive, and compassionate.
