PS: Ask for a monthly pass recommendation ticket

Let's see, how thoughtful Mr. Dong Zhongshu is?

It turns out that the Sunday rest has a long history and a long history.

According to the current labor law of our country, Sunday is closed, but what is the origin of Sunday?

Sunday, that is, Sunday, colloquially, colloquially says Sunday. According to the Bible, Jesus was resurrected and ascended to heaven on Sunday. Christianity uses Sunday as the "day of worship" and also replaces the Sabbath. Christian countries are closed on Sundays and go to church. In Western countries, the name of the seven-day system is mostly religious. For example, the day on which Christians worship is called "Sunday Day", and the seven days are called "one week."

It is said that the reason why Japan calls the seven-day week "one week" is because of this. In the 31st year of Guangxu (1905), the Qing court announced the cessation of the township examination and the general examination, abolished the imperial examination system that had lasted for more than 1,000 years, and established the "School Department". The Compilation and Translation Bureau has set up a book compilation course and a book translation section, and its task is to study and compile various official textbooks for "the use of a unified country." In the compilation of various textbooks, it is natural to encounter the problem of how to deal with a "new term". In 1909, the Compilation and Library Bureau established a new body to standardize the nouns and terminology in textbooks. Yuan Jiagu personally participated in the work of this museum and presided over the formulation of many unified names. The designation of the seven-day week as China's own "week" was formulated under the auspices of Yuan Jiagu.

Christianity has many festivals and festivals, and the festival is celebrated once a year. For example, Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, etc., but the feasts can be repeated throughout the year, for example, every Sunday, Christians are obliged to attend church. There are two other names for Sunday, which many Christians are familiar with, that is, "Sunday" and "Resurrection Day", which means "day of the Lord", which is the day when Christians worship around the celebration of Jesus' resurrection, and it is also the most common and important festival in Christianity. According to the New Testament (Matthew, Mark. Gospel of Luke. The Gospel of John) records that Jesus was crucified the day before the Sabbath (this Friday) and resurrected on the third day (this Sunday). To commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, Christianity designated this Sunday as "Sunday Day."

Prayer is a major pillar of Islam. and is considered the "foundation of religion". Any Muslim. If you fail to observe the prayer and there is no valid reason. It is a grave offense and an abomination. This transgression is so serious because it is not only against Allah – which is bad enough – but also against the true nature of human nature. Tend to revere great things. and the tendency to aspire to lofty goals is an instinctive human nature. The greatest thing and the noblest goal in this universe is to worship Allah.

It's just that many people don't know the real origin of Sunday.

As we all know, Sunday is also called Sunday, so what are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday called?

In ancient times, Monday was called Jupiter, Tuesday was called Mars, Wednesday was called Saturn, Thursday was called Venus, Friday was called Mercury, and Saturday was called Sunday and Moon.

The reason why it is called the week is because whether it is Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, or the sun and moon, they all belong to the stars. That's why this method of timekeeping is called the week.

It's just that this kind of week is different from the one-week cycle in the West, and the week in China is four weeks and repeated.

This method of timekeeping is called the Twenty-Eight Nights in our country.

The 28 Nakshatras are the 28 star regions divided by the ancients to observe the movement of the sun, moon and five stars, which are used to explain the position of the sun, moon and five stars. Each Nakshatra contains a number of stars. One of the themes in traditional Chinese culture. It is widely used in ancient Chinese astronomy, religion, literature, astrology, astrology, feng shui, auspicious selection and other techniques. Different fields give it different connotations, and the related content is very complex. Its original origin, there is no conclusive conclusion at present, with the cultural relics to examine, Suixian unearthed in the Warring States period Zeng Marquis B tomb lacquer box, the first time recorded the complete name of the twenty-eight houses. It is generally recognized in the historiography that the 28 Nakshatras were first used in astronomy, so its position in the history of astronomy is quite important, and it has always been a topic of interest to Chinese and foreign scholars.

The Twenty-Eight Nakshatras, also known as the Twenty-Eight Houses or Twenty-Eight Stars, divide the stars in the southern midheaven into 28 groups and distribute a circle of stars along the ecliptic or celestial equator (the Earth's equator extends to the heavens). It is divided into four groups, also known as the Four Elephants, the Four Beasts, the Four Dimensions, and the Four Gods, each with seven constellations, the origin of which is not fully understood.

Originally, the ancients chose 28 star officials to compare the movements of the sun, yin, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, as markers for observation. The meaning of "Su" is similar to the "palace" of the zodiac, which means the constellation table, indicating the position of the sun and the moon and the five stars. In the Tang Dynasty, the Twenty-Eight Heavens became the main body of the Twenty-Eight Heavenly Regions, which were still named after the Twenty-Eight Heavens, and unlike the Sanyuan Quarter, as the Celestial Regions, the Twenty-Eight Heavens were mainly for the purpose of dividing the belonging of the star officials.

The names of the 28 houses are arranged from west to east as follows: the Seven Houses of the Eastern Canglong (Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Heart, Tail, and Kei), the Seven Houses of Xuanwu in the North (Dou, Niu, Nu, Xu, Wei, Room, and Wall), the Seven Houses of the White Tiger (Kui, Lou, Stomach, Pleiades, Bi, Mi, and Ginseng) in the West, and the Seven Houses of the Vermilion Bird (Jing, Ghost, Liu, Xing, Zhang, Wing, and Zhen) in the South.

The earthly branch is the core content of ancient Chinese astronomy, and it is the most important symbol of ancient Chinese astronomy. The earthly branch is derived from the ancient twenty-eight constellations, another expression of the year. The method of creating the earthly branch is to adopt some of the astrological symbols of the 28 nakshatras.

The twenty-eight Nakshatras start from the Horns and are arranged from west to east, in the same direction as the apparent movement of the Sun and Moon:

The East is called the green dragon: Jiaomu Jiao, Kang Jin Dragon, Di Tu Raccoon, Fang Ri Rabbit, Xinyue Fox, Tailed Fire Tiger, Kei Water Leopard;

In the south, it is called the Vermilion Bird: Jingmu Rhino, Ghost Golden Sheep, Liutu Deer, Xingri Horse, Zhang Yuelu, Winged Fire Snake, and Water Worm. The seven houses in the south are wells, ghosts, willows, stars, zhang, wings, and zhen, with a total of 42 constellations and more than 500 stars, and its image is a red bird with wings spread. The eight stars of the well are like wells, called Gemini in the west, and there are constellations such as the North River, the South River (that is, the constellation of the small dog), the water accumulation, and the water house nearby. It is said that one tube accumulates horses, one tube accumulates soldiers, one tube accumulates cloth, one tube accumulates gold and jade, and there are constellations such as tengu, tensha, and foreign kitchens nearby. The eight stars of the willow are like weeping willows, and it is the mouth of the red bird. The seven stars of the stars are the neck of the Vermilion Bird, and near it are the seventeen stars of Xuanyuan. The six stars of Zhang Su are the sons of the Vermilion Bird, and there are fourteen stars of the Temple of Heaven nearby. The twenty-two stars of the wings are the wings and tail of the Suzaku bird. The four stars are also known as the sky car, the four stars are in the middle, and there are two stars under the left jurisdiction and the right jurisdiction next to it, "the elephant of the car".

In the West, it is called the White Tiger: Kui Wood Wolf, Lou Jin Dog, Stomach Pheasant, Pleiades Pheasant, Bi Yuewu, Fire Monkey, and Ginseng Ape. There are a total of 54 constellations and more than 700 stars in the Western Seven Nakshatras, which form the white tiger pattern. Kuisu is made up of sixteen not-so-bright stars, shaped like the soles of shoes, and it is the tail of the god of the white tiger. Lousu is three-star, and there are constellations such as the left watch, the right watch, Tiancang, and the Tianda general nearby. The three stars of the stomach are close together, and there are constellations such as Tianxiao, Tianchuan, Accumulated Corpse, and Stagnant Water nearby, and it seems that the appetite is too small to digest so much food, and it is a little indigestion. The Pleiades are the famous Pleiades star cluster, and there are many myths and legends about it. Aldebaran eight stars, like fork claws, in ancient times, the net is small and the handle of the elder is called Bi, Bi Xing is also known as the rain master (Ji Xing is the rain bo), also known as the Ping Ping, the number of the screen, the Xuan Ming (the same as the room); The three stars are almost completely close together, which is really a little bit of cherry. Betelgeuse, the three stars in the middle are arranged in a row, there are two stars on each side, the seven stars are very bright, very conspicuous in the sky, it is exactly opposite to the great Mars, we call the difference of opinion today as the opinion of the consultation, and the brotherly discord for the participation in the consultation, all originate from this.

In the north, it is called Xuanwu: Doumu Hedgehog, Ox Taurus, Female Earth Bat, Void Sun Mouse, Dangerous Moon Swallow, Room Fire Pig, Wall Water Pig. There are a total of 65 constellations and more than 800 stars in the northern seven houses, which form the image of the snake and the turtle, so they are called Xuanwu. Qisu Dousu is the head of the northern Xuanwu Yuan Turtle, composed of six stars, the shape is also like a bucket, it is generally called the South Dipper, it is in charge of life and death together with the Beidou, also known as the Temple of Heaven. The six stars of the ox are like the horns of a bull. The four stars of the female house are also shaped like a kei. The virtual host star is one of the four stars of Yaodian, also known as the heavenly festival, which is quite ominous, the ancient virtual star is the main autumn, containing the image of slaughter, everything is withered, and it is really sad to cry. There are constellations of tombs, constellations of void sorghum, and constellations of building houses, which are also ominous, reflecting the inner turmoil of the ancients in the late autumn and winter season. Also known as the Xuan Palace, the Qing Temple, and the Xuan Ming (Water God), its appearance tells people to strengthen their houses to survive the harsh winter. The wall house is similar to the room house, and may contain the meaning of reinforcing the courtyard wall. The status of the Xuanwu star in the north is very high, and there is a Zhenwu Temple (outside the Fuxing Gate) in Beijing, that is, to worship the Zhenwu Emperor.

Sunday rest is considered a foreign product to many people, but how many people know that Sunday rest actually existed in our country a long, long time ago?

At this time, Dong Liuxiao finally understood the entourage of Dong Yiren, Dong Aiyi, Dong Sanli, Dong Sizhi, and Dong Wuxin...... When the five charming beautiful girls looked at him (Dong Liuxiao), the strange expressions of Dong Yiren, Dong Aiyi, Dong Sanli, Dong Sizhi, and Dong Wuxin.

It turned out that Dong Yiren, Dong Aiyi, Dong Sanli, Dong Sizhi, and Dong Wuxin were in the entourage...... Those five beautiful girls were originally going to be his (Dong Liuxiao's) wife.

Dong Liuxiao finally came to his senses.

The woman married in Dong Liuxiao's original family naturally did not dare to oppose Mr. Dong Zhongshu's arrangement. After all, arranged marriages were really a common thing at that time.

In this way, Dong Liuxiao could only follow Mr. Dong Zhongshu's arrangement, sowing seeds with the woman for six days and resting one day in seven days.

Dong Yiren, Dong Aiyi, Dong Sanli, Dong Sizhi, and Dong Wuxin also naturally returned to the capital later.

Dong Zhongshu father and son are finished. (To be continued......)
