Birthday query (teaching you how to test your birthday)

Many people don't understand how to measure their birthdays. Let me explain the algorithm of birthdates in detail:

What is a birthday?

Birthday can also be called "eight characters", which is actually another way of saying the word "four pillars" in Zhouyi. "Four pillars" refers to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month and day. 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.

So how do you measure your birthday? It is mainly divided into four steps: date column, moon column, sun column and time column. Let's talk about how to arrange the chronology column first. 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.

First, calculate the annual column.

Tian Gan: ethyl, propylene, butyl, heptyl, heptyl, octanol, non-decyl.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Gezhi: Ugly hasn't applied for going to sea this afternoon.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 1 12

The simplest calculation method is to calculate by subtraction and addition according to the single digits and ten digits of the year of birth:

Calculate the annual dry formula. The number of years (the number of digits at the end of the year) is the algebra of three years (the number of years, the same below). For example: 1987, the last number is 7-3=4. Blame it for being a "D".

Formula for calculating annual expenditure. According to the last two digits of the year of birth, according to the sum of ++5 in different centuries, check the serial number of which number in turn by branch.

Formula for calculating earthly branch (calculated by different centuries):

Calculation formula of earth branch in the 20th century (i.e. 1900 ~ 1999).

Algebra of two digits at the end of the year+1;

2 1 century (2000-2099) formula for calculating the earth branch.

Five-branch algebra of two digits in the last year of AD.

For example: people born in 200 1 year. The annual dryness is 1 1-3=8 (less than 3 plus 10) 7 is the "pungent" in the heavenly dryness.

The annual branch is 1+5=6 6, its annual column is "Xinsinian" and its underground branch is "Si".

Second, calculate the moon column.

Moon column, that is, a festival with stems and branches indicating the date of birth. 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. The support of the moon column is fixed. The dividing line between months is determined by festivals:

January silver moon (beginning of spring ~ Scared) February Uzuki (Scared ~ Qingming) March Chen Yue (Qingming ~ Long Summer)

April Mitsuki (long summer ~ awn seed) May afternoon (awn seed ~ light summer) end of June (light summer ~ beginning of autumn)

Shen Yue in July (beginning of autumn ~ Bailu), the moon in August (Bailu ~ Cold Dew) and the moon in September (Cold Dew ~ beginning of winter).

Full moon in October (beginning of winter ~ heavy snow), full moon in winter (heavy snow ~ slight cold), ugly in December (slight cold ~ beginning of spring).

There are such formulas in all kinds of life books, such as "The Moon Column is Heavenly Dry" and "The Law of Earthly Support":

In the first year, C was the first.

B Geng years old, E as the head,

Bing Xin looked for Geng at the beginning of the year.

Ding is downstream,

What to say and how to send it?

Good news is good at pursuing.

Such as Gregorian calendar 65438+ March 0988, lunar calendar 65438+ February 1st 0988. The moon column is "B". February of the lunar calendar is the "Mao" month, and Tiangan No.2 is B, which is the "Yi Mao" month.

Three rows of solar columns

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 a person is born, and there are branches and branches of the lunar calendar. Branches and branches are recorded every 60 days. Because of the difference between month and leap year, the daily branch and the branch need to find a perpetual calendar. In addition, the dividing line between days is divided by time, that is, before eleven o'clock is the time of the previous day, and after eleven o'clock is the time of the next day. Don't think that midnight is the dividing point of a day.

Four-line time series

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

Yin Shi: 3 am to 5 am Shi Mao: 5 am to 7 am.

7: 00 am-9: 00 am: 9: 00 am-1 1.

At noon:11:00-13:13: 00-15: 00.

Application time:15am-17am:17am-19am.

Time: 19 pm -2 1 hour: 2 1 pm -23 pm

After reading it, you can try to calculate your birthday.
