Is Zhongtian the zenith?

Midheaven is also called zenith and tenth house (MC): it is always at the top or south of the astrolabe. The zenith is the zenith. There are two straight lines through the astrolabe and a horizontal line through the horizon on the horoscope of the constellation.

As we all know, in astrology, zenith represents human's pursuit of life goals, and zenith constellation implies human zenith to some extent. Therefore, if a person's heyday is not good, it is difficult for him to climb to the peak of life.

Zhongtian is also known as "the virtue of neutralization, the unity of man and nature" The word "neutrality" comes from the golden mean: "Neutrality and justice are powerful and correct." Kong Ying Da's book: "China is independent, impartial, strong-willed and well-groomed." It can be seen that "neutrality" contains four basic connotations. First, it is independence, that is, impartiality and the right path in the world.

Yi Li: "Feminine, almost right." The second is "impartiality". Shuowen: "lean on it." It refers to being good at independent thinking, seizing opportunities, being impartial and inflexible; The third is "strong will".

Mandarin Jin language: "ambition: the home of benevolence and righteousness." In the eyes of the ancients, "strong will" means upholding morality, high spirits and perseverance; The fourth is shape correction. Right, vigorous, powerful, powerful. Ganyi: "A gentleman should strive for self-improvement."

Astronomical applications:

In astronomy, the transit is a point that celestial bodies such as planets, stars or constellations pass through during the movement on Sunday, and it is the moment when the celestial bodies under observation are passing through the local meridian circle. In other words, the position of the celestial body at the highest point is also the moment when the celestial body is closest to the zenith.

Sometimes, the upper transit is used to describe the above phenomenon, while the lower transit is another moment when celestial bodies pass through meridian circle, and the position at this time is the lowest point on the celestial sphere. (that is, the point closest to the bottom of the sky or farthest from the zenith).

The height of transit is the latitude of the observation point on the earth plus or minus the distance between celestial bodies and celestial poles. If it is 1 10, it should be changed to 70, if it is 100, it should be changed to -80, and so on. The horizon longitude and azimuth are the same, but if we do azimuth transformation, the difference between the values before and after the transformation is 180.
