Lunar months of 2028

The gender chart’s columns are lunar months, not January to December. This table converts them: find your conception date in the date range, and the lunar month number in that row is the column you read on the chart.

2028 is a leap year in the lunar calendar. An extra month 5 runs 23 June 2028 to 21 July 2028. The chart has no thirteenth column, so conceptions in that window are read against month 5.

Your lunar age in 2028

Everyone gains a lunar year on Chinese New Year, not on their birthday. So for a conception on or after 26 January 2028, your lunar age is one higher than it was the day before. If you conceived in January or early February 2028, before New Year, you are still counted in the previous lunar year, and you will land on a different row of the chart entirely.

The calculator above applies that cutoff automatically, which is the single most common thing other Chinese gender calculators get wrong.

The chart itself

The chart does not change from year to year, only the dates that map onto its columns do. Here it is in full.
