How to find your correct birth year based on the Li Chun (starting of spring)

The heavenly stem, earthly branches, and the 60 combinations

The old Chinese calendar is based on the 10 heavenly stems and 12 earthly branches. There will be a total of 60 combinations.

The earthly branches are related to the 12 animal signs. In this fortune-telling method, each of the 5 elements is divided into 6 types. So there will be 30 types total.

As for most Chinese metaphysics, the starting of the year begins with Li Chun or the start of the spring. This is one of the traditional 24 solar terms. The Li Chun usually falls on February 4th or 5th in the western calendar. So if your birthday is in January or before February 4th, you belong to the previous year.

If you are not sure of your belonging year, you can check the traditional lunar calendar or search online to find the exact date and year.
