Chinese New Year Traditions
The arrival of the New Year according to the Solar Calendar - corresponding with the movement of the sun, usually should be around February 4th each year.
If it is according to the Lunar Calendar - corresponding with the movement of the moon, then it falls on the second New Moon after the Winter Solstice, which could be any day within January or February according to the Gregorian calendar.
The Chinese traditionally views everything from San Cai
perspective - the concept of Tian 
, Di 
and Ren 
; or Heaven, Earth and Man/Human as being “San Cai Zhi Dao” 
the Dao of the Three Abilities or Powers.
For everything to be auspicious, the qi/energy between these three aspects has to be flowing harmoniously at all times.
