Then the calculations are plotted against combination of two calendars � lunar and solar.<br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The solar New Year is known as Sui which has  duration from one December Solstice to the next; while Nian is the Chinese calendar that commences on one Chinese New Year and continues till the next.
