Astrological classical Chinese

1. Ancient prose about astrology 1. "The Book of Songs Wind July": "July is fire, September is clothing."

Fire: The name of the star, Antares, stays at the zenith at dusk in May in the summer calendar every year, and gradually goes west after June. When the summer heat begins to decline, it is called "filariasis". The weather is getting colder.

"July" refers to the July of the lunar calendar;

"Flow" refers to moving and falling;

It's cold tomorrow. It's time to sew cold clothes.

2. "Zuo Zhao has been in the public for three years": "Cold and summer retreat in the fire."

When Mars (Antares) appears due south in the morning, the cold will disappear, and when Mars appears due south at night, the heat will disappear.

That's all I know. Can I help you?

2. Who can recommend a book about astronomical phenomena, A Brief History of Astronomy, also known as Dan Zi Yuan's Song of Treading in the Sky? This is an astronomical book that can be studied more. The interesting thing about A Brief History of Astronomy is that the author compiled it in the form of China's unique seven-character poems and seven-character songs, and each sentence rhymes. Judging from the text of the article, you can travel in the sky with the author's brilliant pen. The editor is not only rich in astronomical knowledge, but also proves that ancient China literati really read poetry books. This description of starry sky full of Chinese flavor is quite different from the feeling of western astrological articles. The three walls of "Shi Tian Wall, Taiwei Wall and Wei Zi Wall" are mainly composed of angle, temple, house, heart, tail, dustpan, kui, building, stomach, wing, wall, hook, Shen, well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang and wing.

It is still the theory of evolution in Huai Nan Zi, but the theory of evolution in Huai Nan Zi tends to Taoism. Besides space, the astronomical view depicted is also mixed with the concept of time. It also contains the rhythm of describing yin and yang. Gong, Shang, Yu Shengjiao,,,,,,. . . And so on. The calculated news has a strong meaning, and this kind of article has China characteristics and thinking. Personally, I think this ancient astronomical prose is worth reading. The above are two masterpieces recommended for your reference.
