== Description by the Publisher ==

<nowiki>The Chinese Lunar Calendar is a lunisolar calendar, consisting of months corresponding exactly to lunar cycles and years which stay more-or-less in sync with seasonal years. The structure of the calendar depends on the exact times of certain astronomical events, principally dark moons and winter solstices. </nowiki><br/>

<nowiki>The solar calendar consists of a series of seasonal years which are divided into 24 "solar terms". The lunar calendar consists of a series of years which are divided into 12 or 13 lunar months. A solar year always begins at the (northern) winter solstice. A lunar month always begins on the day of a dark moon. </nowiki><br/>

<nowiki>Chinese Calendrics is used to do the following:</nowiki><br/>

<nowiki>To convert between dates in the Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese solar and lunar calendars and dates in the Common Era and Julian calendars. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To calculate the date of New Year's Day in the Asian lunar calendars. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To ascertain the Western dates of the starts of all lunar months in a year in the lunar calendar. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To find leap months in the lunar calendar. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To find the Western dates corresponding to Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese anniversaries (e.g., birthdays). </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To move forward or backward from a given date (and time) either by a period such as a month or by a number of days. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To calculate the phase of the Moon for any time within a 6000-year period. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To search for the next or previous full moon, dark moon, lunar quarter, solar term  or solstice or equinox of a certain type. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To search for a solstice or an equinox in combination with a dark moon or a full moon. </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To search for the next or previous day, month or year with a certain element-animal correspondence (e.g., the next water-ox year or the next fire-dragon day). </nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To find days for which the element-animal is the same for day, month and year.</nowiki><br/>
<nowiki>To see an entire month inthe Chinese lunar calendar showing images of the Moon for each day.</nowiki>
