What year does the unitary year refer to?

A single year is also called the Year of the Rooster.

Chicken ranks tenth in the zodiac, and the Year of the Rooster is:

1909, 192 1 year, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969 and1999.

1993, 2005, 20 17, 2029, 204 1 etc.

When the number of AD is divided by 12, the year with the remainder of 1 is the year of the rooster. The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient and the remainder is 1. For example: 20 17÷ 12= the quotient is 168, and the remainder is 1. Then, 20 17 is the year of the rooster.

The Year of the Rooster is counted from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the zodiac year is attached to the calendar year of the trunk and branch, and the calendar year of the trunk and branch is the calendar year method of the trunk and branch. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar). The lunar calendar only records the year with the trunk and branch, and the trunk and branch calendars are two different calendars, which are different in the starting point of a year, the rules of dividing the month, the number of days in a year and so on.
