The calculation of the eight characters of the birthday,I don't like the skipping related to the work.,Hehe.。

Let's talk about history first:

In the ancient Chinese calendar, A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and 癸 were called the "Ten Heavenly Stems", and Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai were called the "Twelve Earthly Branches". The two cooperate with each other in a fixed order to form the Ganzhi Discipline Law. Judging from the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in Yinxu, the sexagenary branch was mainly used in ancient China for the day, and it was also used for the month, the year, and the time. So, who is the inventor of the Ganzhi Discipline Law?

Although there are some theories to verify the origin of the Ganzhi, who actually invented it? When did it first appear? Always a mystery.

Around the end of the Warring States period, the historical book "Shiben", compiled on the basis of the materials accumulated by historians from various countries for a long time, said: "Rong Cheng is a calendar, and Da Hua is a Jiazi", "Both of them are ministers of the Yellow Emperor, and since the Yellow Emperor, they have used the Jiazi Chronicle, every 60 days and Jiazi is a week." It seems that the stem branch is created by Da Luo, and Da Luo "adopts the feelings of the five elements, occupies the bucket machine and builds, and starts to make A and B to the name of the day, which is called dry; As a child ugly to the name of the month, called the branch, something in the sky then use the day, something in the ground then use the month, the difference between yin and yang, so there is a branch name also. ”

Guo Moruo believes in "Oracle Bone Script Research: Interpretation of Ganzhi" that in the past, people's interpretations of Ganzhi were all conjectures based on the meaning of the text, and that the "Ten Heavenly Stems" was purely a natural occurrence of decimal notation, most of which were created by the Yin people. As for the "12 earthly branches", which originated in ancient Babylon, after comparing the 12 hours in ancient China and the 12 signs in ancient Babylon, it is pointed out that the 12 stars and the 12 earthly branches in ancient China evolved from the 12 signs of the zodiac in ancient Babylon. The way it was introduced to China can be boldly speculated: perhaps the Shang people "originally came from the northwest, and when they came, they carried the ephemeris knowledge taught by Babylon and used it after entering Middle-earth", or perhaps "the Shang people originated in the east, and their ephemeris knowledge was imported by merchants or herdsmen from the west".

Some scholars have explored the unique phenomenon that the characters in the Ten Heavenly Stems have been used for names from the ancient Xia Dynasty emperor lineage and the names of all the emperors below the Tang King of the Shang Dynasty. In order to refute the cadres and branches, Chen Zunfei pointed out in the "History of Chinese Astronomy" that "in the Xia Dynasty more than 4,000 years ago, there may have been cadres and branches." Zheng Wenguang believes in his book "The Origin of Chinese Astronomy" that the Ten Heavenly Stems originated from the myths and legends of Fuxi and "Ten Days of Life" in ancient China, which is a reflection of the concept of decimal law in the chronology, and should have arisen in the primitive society of the fishing and hunting era. The "Twelve Earthly Branches" evolved from the myth and legend of Changxi's "Ten Births and Two Moons", which was produced before the Yin Shang Dynasty and gradually evolved into the Twelve Chen. Therefore, Zheng Wenguang deduced: "The twelve branches should be the creation of the Xia people. Du Shiran et al., in the book "Manuscript of the History of Chinese Science and Technology", advocated that the Xia Dynasty had a ten-day dry method, and the Shang Dynasty further used the dry branch method on the basis of the Xia Dynasty's Tiangan day, so as to combine the ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches together to form a sixty-cycle chronological method.

Year Estimate:

Heavenly stem: A, B, C, D, P, H, H

12345678910

Earth Branch: Zi Chou Yin Mao Chen Si Wu did not apply for Youxu Hai

123456789101112

In China, the day and night are divided into 12 hours, which are used as Zi, Chou, Yin, and Mao、...... In the West, the day and night are divided into two 12 hours, that is, 24 hours a day. 0:00 midnight is sub-hour, and 12 noon is noon.

If the heavenly stem and the earthly branch are arranged in order, they are combined in pairs, and there are "Jiazi" and "Yichou、...... Until "Renxu" and "Guihai", there are a total of 60 groups that are not repeated. It was first used to record the day in China, and later used to record the year, which was the "dry branch" method that had been used as early as more than 3,000 years ago. And it has been used until now, for example, 1983 is the year of Guihai, and 1984 is the year of Jiazi from the beginning, and 2003 is the year of Guiwei. This is the sexagesimal system.

Sixty Jiazi order

Monthly Calculation:

In the order of January to December.

Day Calculation:

This is much simpler, one to ten writes: the first year of junior high school, the second year of junior high school...... Beginning 10.

Eleven to twenty write: eleven, twelve...... Twenty.

Twenty-one to twenty-nine, thirty write: twenty-one, twenty-two...... Twenty-nine, thirty.

Thirty-one writes: 弎一.

Finally, the estimation of the hour:

23.00-1.00 1.00-3.00 3.00 3.00-500 5.00-7.00 7.00-9.00 9.00-11.00 11.00 11.00-13.00 13.00-15.00 15.00-17.00 17.00-19.00 19.00-21.00 21.00-23.00
