Accurately calculate the days remaining until Mazu's birthday (3rd month, 23rd day of the lunar calendar) to help plan your festival activities.
Skip the hassle of manually checking complex lunar dates. This tool automatically calculates the exact number of days remaining until Mazu's birthday (fixed on the 23rd day of the 3rd lunar month every year). Using a built-in lunar conversion algorithm, it provides real-time countdowns or same-day reminders, making it easy for devotees to prepare for festival ceremonies in advance.
Will leap years affect the accuracy of the countdown?
No. This tool uses a professional lunar algorithm with nearly a century of built-in lunar data. In leap years, the date mapping is automatically adjusted to ensure the countdown always accurately corresponds to the actual birthday.
What is displayed on the actual day of Mazu's birthday?
A congratulatory message! When the system detects that the current day is the 23rd day of the 3rd lunar month, it will display a blessing such as "Happy Mazu's Birthday."
Please ensure your device's system time is accurate and the time zone is set to China Standard Time (UTC+8). The results are for reference only. For major festival preparations, we recommend double-checking announcements from local temples. This tool does not store any user data.
The lunar conversion uses the syzygy algorithm, referencing the Chinese national standard "Calculation and Promulgation of the Chinese Calendar" (GB/T 33661-2017) by the Purple Mountain Observatory. We recommend devotees check the countdown 30 days and 7 days before the birthday to plan offerings and travel itineraries. Example: In 2025, Mazu's birthday falls on April 20th in the Gregorian calendar. If you visit the page on March 20th, it will display "31 days remaining."
