Lunar New Year, also referred to as Spring Festival, celebrates the transition from one animal to the next. The 12 animals correspond to a repeating 12-year cycle based on the lunar calendar. In order from first to last, the results were as follows: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. The order in which the animals finished determined their place in the zodiac. According to legend, the Jade Emperor summoned all of the animals to his palace in order to participate in a great race, of sorts. The Chinese zodiac is based on the idea of zoolatry, or animal worship, and dates back to the Qin Dynasty – more than 2,000 years ago.
