every year Please do not post silly answers like that. Chinese New Year follows the Lunar Calendar, which is different from the Solar or Gregorian Calendar used very commonly everywhere now. In the Chinese Lunar calendar, Chinese New Year always falls on the 1st of the 1st Lunar month, called 年初一 nian(2) chu(1) yi(1) lit. means the first (day) of the year. However in the solar calendar it can vary from any day in January to late February. For e.g. the 1st 2 days of Chinese New Year in 2010 fell on 14 Feb (Valentine's Day) and 15 Feb but in 2009, it was on 26 and 27 Jan 2009. Chinese New Year also refers to a period, and not just 1 day. It is typically a 2-week break, and usually starting before the actual day because the Eve is a very important part of the celebrations as well.

1990 was the Chinese Year of the Horse. Actually, it depends on birthday. Chinese people use Lunar calendar to judge the animal. Before Feb 4th, 1990, it was snake. And after that was Horse.

Happy new year!!
According to Solar Calendar, it is 2010 for the Chinese too, but according to Lunar Calendar, it is still 2009 for the Chinese. Until after Chinese Spring Festival, it enters the year 2010 on the Lunar Calendar formally. It is also called the "Tiger" year from生肖(shēnɡxiāo) the zodiac year.
The first day of the Chinese New Year is February 4 on our (Gregorian) calendar. So, if you were born before February 4, in 2002, then you were born in the year of the White Snake. If you were born after February 4, then you were born in the year of the Black Horse. See this Chinese Astrology Calendar for more details (below, under Related Links). You are also designated an animal for the month and day you were born, not just the year.
The animal that represented the Chinese New Year in 1988 was the dragon.
