Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches

In ancient China, people took heaven as their work and the earth as their support. There are ten kinds of heavenly stems, including: A, B, C, D, E, Ji, G, Xin, Man and Ghost. There are twelve earthly branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches used to record the sun. Ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches are combined into sixty units in turn. Odd aerial stems are matched with odd ground branches, and even aerial stems are matched with even ground branches. From Jiazi to Guihai, there are 60 units, called 60 Jiazi. In ancient China, people used this method to record the year, month and day, and so on.

In ancient China, people divided a day and a night into twelve hours, but in modern times, one hour is equivalent to two hours, representing five o'clock and six o'clock in the morning in Shi Mao, and so on. By analogy, these four hours, noon, untimely, Shenshi, Youshi, Qishi, Zishi, Ugly and Yin Shi are a whole day and night.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches is not only a tool for ancient people in China to calculate the life span of stars, but also a calendar for calculating time, which is related to the history, culture and daily life of China.
