What year is 2008?
Zodiac years are: 2044, 2032, 2020, 2008, 1996, 1984, 1972, 1960, 1948, 65438.
Judgment method:
Divide the number of AD by 12, and the year with the remainder of 4 is the year of the rat.
The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 4.
For example: 2008÷ 12= quotient 167, and the remainder is 4. Therefore, 2008 is the year of the rat.
Note that the above is only a rough correspondence, because the Gregorian calendar used in the world and the trunk-branch calendar in China are two different calendars. The Year of the Rat is counted from beginning of spring with 24 solar terms, because the year of the Zodiac is attached to the trunk-branch calendar, which is a calendar. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar).
