Geomantic numerology explanation: how to calculate the eight characters of leap month

Leap month refers to the lunar calendar used by our people, with one month added every leap year.

Does this practice affect the eight-character calculation in Feng Shui?

Then let's understand how the horoscope of leap month is calculated.

To understand this problem, we need to know how leap months come into being.

According to the China lunar calendar, there are 12 months in a year, which are divided into big month and small month. There are 30 days in a big month and 29 days in a small month, so there are 354 days in a year. In fact, the solar calendar has 365 days a year, so that the lunar year will be about 10 days less than the solar calendar, and the longer the time, the greater the deviation (about 20 days in two years and 30 days in three years). The consequence of the increasing deviation is that it directly leads to the upside down of the season. For example, we usually celebrate the Spring Festival in winter, and summer will be over in ten years.

In order to avoid this situation, the concept of "leap month" is introduced into the calendar, that is, every three years or so, an extra month is set to fill this deviation, so that it can be basically synchronized with the number of days in the solar calendar year and there will be no inversion of seasons. So there is a leap month every year, and a year is 13 months.

The setting of leap month is like your watch gains 6 minutes every day, so it will gain 10 days later 1 hour. For the sake of accuracy, you should adjust the time back to 1 hour after 10. The purpose of setting the watch back to 1 hour is to synchronize the watch time with the actual time and make it more accurate. Similarly, setting a leap month is to set the time back to 1 month, otherwise it will be out of touch with the real time and the seasons will be reversed. This is the reason for setting leap months.

Because the number of days in lunar year is different from that in solar year, we introduce the algorithm of "leap month". Is there a calculation method that can keep the number of days in the lunar year and the number of days in the solar year synchronized? Yes, it is the "festival" in "solar terms".

The so-called solar terms refer to the 24 solar terms, such as beginning of spring, rain and fright, which are divided into solar terms and gas terms. Festivals refer to a part of a year and represent a period of time. And "qi" refers to climate, which is an overview of weather changes.

Among the 24 solar terms, "Festival" includes beginning of spring, Jing Zhe, Qingming, Changxia, Mangzhong, Xiaoshu, beginning of autumn, Bailu, Hanlu, beginning of winter, Heavy Snow and Xiaohan, and the rest are "Qi". There are twelve festivals in a year, which correspond to twelve months. If we take "festival" as the month, it will be synchronized with the number of days in the solar year, because the number of days in the twelve solar terms is exactly 365 days, not 354 days.

Conclusion: It can be seen that as long as the festival is regarded as the month, there is no need to set up a leap month. Anyone who has studied eight characters knows that when we arrange eight characters, we actually take "festival" as the real month, so that the arranged eight characters are accurate. The arrival time of each festival has a specific time point. Even in a leap month, the arrival time of the festival will not change. It has a fixed time for worship, so it will not affect the arrangement of the eight characters, because we arrange the eight characters according to the festival, which has nothing to do with the leap month.
