What year is next year?

2007 is the Year of the Native Pig, and the Year of the Golden Pig is a hype.

According to Zhao Zhi Heng, chairman of Tianjin Astronomical Society, there is only one "Golden Pig Year" in 60 years. The last "Golden Pig Year" was in the year of Xinhai of 197 1, and the next "Golden Pig Year" was in the year of Xinhai of 20031. The coming lunar year of "Pig" is the year of Dinghai, and people born in this year belong to "local pigs".

Zhao Zhi Heng said that in ancient China, a year was marked by branches. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, 12 species of animals were discovered, and the branches of 12 were marked one by one, which was called the "Zodiac". The year of dry support is also related to the five elements.

Five planets in the sky: Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn. Ancient astronomers drew a "65-line map", so that each year corresponds to a planet with a period of 60 years. For example, "Jia Zi" and "E Chou" correspond to Venus, and people born in these two years belong to "Golden Mouse" and "Taurus".

In this way, the lunar year of 197 1 is the year of Xinhai, and the person born is a "golden pig"; In the Lunar New Year of 2007, the person born was a "native pig"; In the 20th/kloc-0th/9th year of the lunar calendar, the person born is a "wooden pig".
