In itself, no....but it signals the start of a new decade according to popular convention.
A decade is a period of ten years (it can start or end on any year you choose). By popular convention, a decade is calculated starting with the first year beginning with a new number in the “tens” column....i.e., the teens (2010-2019) just ended and the twenties (which will run from 2020-2029) just began.

No, my first decade started in 1965 and coincidently every new decade for me (because my life revolves around me, as should yours) has ended in a 5 so for me I'm half way through this decade.
I've never met a gregorian,
I don't know any gregorians
I never will meet any gregorians.
I am not ruled by their calendar.

tbh … thought it was only happy-new-year … not happy-new-decade. only hit home y'day … while perusing another message board. go figure that one.

edit:
or is that still a year away?
