Happy New Year
[edit]This year Chinese New Year will be widely celebrated on 12th February.
"The Chinese year will start on Feb 12 2021 and end on Feb 1 2022, when the Year of the Tiger begins."

In Vietnam and Mongolia the festival is celebrated on different days (the day before and the day after, respectively).

YEAR OF THE METAL OX
http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Ox_in_Chinese_mythology
There are already pages on Wikipedia for the Five Phases and the Twelve Earthly Branches.
FIVE PHASES
Wood | Fire | Earth | Metal | Water
TWELVE EARTHLY BRANCHES
Rat | Ox | Tiger | Rabbit | Dragon | Snake | Horse | Goat | Monkey | Rooster | Dog | Pig
