“Age in 2026” runs from your age before your birthday to your age after it. Kazoe-doshi is the traditional Japanese way of counting: you are 1 at birth and gain a year every New Year’s Day. The eto and nine-star change at Risshun (3–5 February), so if you were born between 1 January and Risshun, yours are those of the previous year.

Celebrations by age

Kanreki at 61 (kazoe), when your birth eto returns after 60 years, is followed by Koki (70), Kiju (77), Sanju (80), Beiju (88), Sotsuju (90) and Hakuju (99). See kanreki and long-life celebrations and the yakudoshi table.
