Chinese gender chart 2027: boy or girl?

The 2027 lunar year starts on 6 February 2027, so a conception earlier in 2027 still counts in lunar year 2026. Find the lunar month of conception and your lunar age below, then read the chart, or let the calculator do it.

The date of birth of the person who is pregnant, or wants to be.

Calculate from

An estimate is fine: usually about 2 weeks after the first day of the last period.

Folklore for fun: the chart is right about as often as a coin toss.

Calculated on your device. Nothing is sent.

The chart says

Enter your date of birth and a conception or due date to see what the old chart says.

In a study of 2.8 million births in Sweden, the chart was right 50% of the time, the same as tossing a coin. Your baby's sex was settled at conception, and a scan or a blood test is the way to find out.

Lunar months in 2027

The chart uses the lunar month of conception, not the calendar month. Each lunar month starts on a new moon, so the dates move every year.

Frequently asked questions

When does the 2027 Chinese lunar year start?

On 6 February 2027. Lunar year 2027 runs until 25 January 2028, the day before the next Chinese New Year.

How do I find my lunar age for the 2027 chart?

Your lunar age is 1 at birth and goes up by 1 at every Chinese New Year, so it is usually one or two years more than your age in years. For a conception in lunar year 2027, it is 2027 minus the lunar year you were born in, plus 1. If you were born in January or February before Chinese New Year, your lunar birth year is the year before. The table on this page gives the birth dates for every lunar age in the chart.

Does the Chinese gender chart really work?

No more than chance. In a study of 2.8 million births in Sweden, the chart was right for 50% of babies, exactly what you would expect from tossing a coin. A scan or a blood test is the way to find out.
