The two-calendar window in 1927

In 1927, Chinese New Year 正月初一 falls first (1927-02-02) and Lichun 立春 3 days later (1927-02-05). Anyone born inside that 3-day window gets a different zodiac animal and year pillar depending on which convention their tool follows — BaZi practice switches at the exact Lichun instant (1927-02-05 03:30:14, Beijing), folk calendar practice at the new moon. This is not an edge case we gloss over — it is the single most common source of wrong zodiac years, and our engine comparison tool shows it live with three engines side by side.

Your Kua number for 1927

Born inside 1927 (after Lichun)? Your Ming Gua: male (2000 − 1927) mod 9 = 1 → Kan 坎 · female (1927 − 2000 + 6) mod 9 = 5 → Gen 艮. Born before Lichun? The formula runs on 1926 — the Kua calculator applies the boundary for your exact birthday.

Is 1927 a leap month year?

No — the lunar year 1927 has 12 months and no leap month.

What is my Kua number if I was born in 1927?
