How to Calculate Kua Number for Male

Step 1: Identify Your Birth Year (Chinese Lunar Calendar)

Since the Chinese New Year follows the lunar calendar, those born in January or early February should check their birth year carefully. The Chinese year usually begins between January 21 and February 20, so if your birthday falls before the Chinese New Year, your birth year will be counted as the previous year.

🔹 Example: If you were born on January 25, 1998, your birth year is actually 1997 in the Chinese calendar.

Step 2: Add the Last Two Digits of Your Birth Year

Now, take the last two digits of your birth year and add them together until you get a single-digit number.

🔹 Example 1 (Before 2000):
If you were born in 1995 → 9 + 5 = 14, then reduce it further → 1 + 4 = 5

🔹 Example 2 (After 2000):
If you were born in 2004 → 0 + 4 = 4 (no need for further reduction)

Step 3: Subtract from 10 (For Males)

Now, subtract your final sum from 10 (This formula is only for males).

🔹 Example 1 (Before 2000):
For a male born in 1995, the sum was 5 → 10 - 5 = 5 (Kua Number = 5)

🔹 Example 2 (After 2000):
For a male born in 2004, the sum was 4 → 9 - 4 = 5 (Kua Number = 5)

Kua Number Exception (For Males Born in 2000 or Later)

For those born after 2000, instead of subtracting from 10, you subtract from 9.

🔹 Example:
If born in 2003, sum is 0 + 3 = 3 → 9 - 3 = 6 (Kua Number = 6)

⚠️ If your birthday is before the Chinese New Year in your birth year, use the previous year's Kua Number.
