1947 is what zodiac sign?

1947 is the year of the pig and belongs to the pig.

When the AD number is divided by 12, the year with the remainder of 3 is the year of the pig.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 3.

For example: 2007÷ 12= quotient 167, and the remainder is 3. So 2007 is the year of the pig.

For example, 1935, 1947, 1959,197, 1983, 1995, 2007,20/. Once every twelve years. Note that the above is only a rough correspondence, because the Gregorian calendar and the elephant trunk calendar in China, which are widely used in the world, are two different calendars.

The Year of the Pig begins in spring among the 24 solar terms.

Because the zodiac year is attached to the chronology of the trunk and branch, and the chronology of the trunk and branch is the chronology method of the trunk and branch calendar. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar). There is no doubt that the lunar calendar only uses branches to mark the year, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve.

Lunar calendar and trunk calendar are two different calendars, which are different in the starting point of a year, the division rules of months and the number of days in each year. Due to the use of the Gregorian calendar after the Republic of China, many people, including a few so-called experts, lack calendar knowledge, so the two are often confused.
