What does birthday mean?

Birthday, or eight characters, is actually another way of saying the four pillars of Zhouyi. Four pillars refer to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month, day and hour. When people use "heavenly stem" and "earthly branch" to represent year, month, day and hour respectively, such as Jiazi Year, Shen Bingyue, Xin Ugly Day and Renyin Time. There are two words in each column and eight characters in four columns, so fortune telling is also called "measuring eight characters" According to the relationship between yin and yang attributes and the five elements of heaven and earth, it is inferred that human body is responsible and blessed. However, what I want to talk about here is not how to "measure eight characters", but how to calculate eight characters.

[Edit this paragraph] Arrangement

Four-column eight-character arrangement

Four pillars refer to the year, month, day and time when a person was born. Four-column arrangement refers to finding a person's date of birth. It is mainly divided into four steps.

Chronological column

Chronicle, that is, the year when a person was born, is represented by branches. Note that the dividing line between last year and next year is based on the intersection time of beginning of spring, not on the first day of the first month. For example, if someone was born at 22: 00 on February 4, 2000 in the solar calendar, because the lunar calendar was handed over to beginning of spring in 2000 at 20: 32 on February 4, 2000, his chronological column is 2000.

Moon column

Moon column, that is, the festival when a person is born, is represented by stem and branch. Note that the branches and branches of the month are not divided by the first day of each month in the lunar calendar, but by festivals. The festival before the handover is the festival of last month, and the festival after the handover is the festival of next month.

[Edit this paragraph] holiday meaning

Beginning of spring in the first month: "Li" means the beginning, which means that the spring of the revival of all things has begun again. The warmer weather and the revival of all things mark the beginning of farming activities. February 4th or 5th of the solar calendar is the beginning of spring.

[Edit this paragraph] Send Rizhu.

Since February of the third year of Lu Yingong (722 BC), it has never stopped recording the days of cadres and branches in China. This is the only longest method known to human society so far.

The sun column refers to the day when people representing the main branches of the lunar calendar were born. Trunks and branches are recorded every 60 days. Because months are different from leap years, trunks and branches need to find a perpetual calendar.

In addition, the dividing line between day and day is divided by hours, that is, before eleven o'clock is the hour of the previous day, and after eleven o'clock is the hour of the next day. Don't think that midnight is the dividing point of a day.

Timetable column

The time series represents the time of birth with branches. One hour in the lunar calendar spans two hours, so there are twelve hours in a day.

Hours: 23: 00 am-1; Chou Shi: 65438+ 0: 00 -3: 00 am

[Edit this paragraph] Take a friend of mine as an example.

My friend was born at 8 am on August 27th, 1984, and August 27th is July. This year is the year of Jiazi (found in the book); According to the rhyme of "Standing the Moon Column", we can know that his age is A, so his "Standing the Moon Column" is Ren Shen; Accordingly, his daily column is Ghost Silk (seen in the book); According to the rhyme of the time bar, his time bar knows that it is a dry day, and C coincides with the time, so the time bar should be C. In this way, his birthday is discharged: "Jia Zi doesn't want to apply for ranking, but it is still in the past." .

Children are the hope of every parent. As soon as the baby is born, there will be an accurate time. Birthday, as the ancients often said, contains the basic state of celestial bodies when a person is born, and also contains a person's future destiny.

In order to get the correct time of birth, the sundial is the most accurate measurement during the day. When the clock time is the artificial average time and the regional standard, it is necessary to calculate the "apparent solar time difference" according to the solar terms (ecliptic) and the "local longitude time difference" according to the place of birth, so as to get the real astronomical birth time.

Push the midnight method (is it appropriate? ):

Midnight is different from prime time, and the deduction method is slightly different. The time to check on the children starts at eleven o'clock in the evening and ends at one o'clock. People who give birth between eleven o'clock and twelve o'clock at night are at midnight. When it comes to being the son of tonight, it belongs to today. After twelve o'clock, it is tomorrow. The so-called midnight is today's evening, not tomorrow's morning. Tomorrow is early, not tonight. There are two o'clock at a time, the night before one o'clock and the morning after one o'clock The way to escape from work is slightly different from the way to get up in the morning. We must escape from another world after escaping from the stone sea.

For example, in the year of Bingwu, the month of Geng Yin, the ugly day, after eleven o'clock, before twelve o'clock, born at night. As the song goes: B Geng C for the first time. When it is the second day (Zhengzi), Ding Chou, Wuyin, Jimao, Chen Geng, Xinsi, Guiwei, Shen Jia, Yiyou, Xu Bing, Dinghai and Coconut must be Wuzi.

Kexuan Lecture: Every afternoon 1 1: 59: 59, 59 seconds, it is a night child, which belongs to yin; That is, the last four quarters, the original amount today. If it starts from 12 to 1 2, it will be early tomorrow morning, and the next four hours will belong to Yang, which will not be easy for thousands of years.

Since ancient times, when Jia has started to play Jiazi, the original Jiazi leaves are the same, so it is possible to add leaves.

Date of Birth Ancient people in China used the date of birth to record the specific time of birth, which consists of two characters: year, month, day and hour.

In the eight characters, the annual and daily branches are continuous and true; The branch of month and time is calculated according to the branch of year and day, which can be said to be virtual.

Calculated by the daily trunk: if the daily trunk is A or Self, then the daily trunk is Jia; If the trunk of the day is B or G, the trunk of the day is C; If the Japanese stem is C or Xin, the Japanese stem is Wuzi; If the daily work is Ding or Ren, the daily work is Geng Zi; If a day's work is e or decyl, then a day's work is not nut.

Calculate the monthly trunk branch according to the annual trunk branch: if the annual trunk branch is A or itself, the trunk branch in the first month of that year is C; If the annual stem is B or G, the stem in the first month of that year is Wuyin; If the annual work is C or Xin, the work in the first month of that year is Geng Yin; If the annual stem is Ding or Ren, then the stem in the first month of that year is Ren Yin; If the year's work is the Reform Movement of 1898 or the year's work in the first month of that year is Jiayin. The branches of leap month are the same as this month, and each ordinal number corresponds to only one branch. For example, in a leap August, the branch of this leap month is the same as that of the last August, and there is no other calculation.

Birthday can only reflect the date of a person's birth at most, so it is not too much to record the time. Some people use birthdays to tell fortune, which is very unreliable. Because a person's fate is influenced by many conditions, besides the weather, there are also restrictions on the region and people he grew up in. Coupled with the different opportunities, how much can the influence of birth time account for?
