What is the date of birth and how to calculate it?

Date of birth, abbreviated as eight characters, refers to the date of a person's birth on the official calendar; There are four pillars and branches on it, engraved with the year, month and day respectively, each with two words, a total of eight words. Birthday plays an important role in Chinese folk beliefs, and Taoist priests and astrologers in ancient China calculated people's fate accordingly.

The four pillars of birthday promote life:

Four pillars refer to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month, day and hour. When people use "heavenly stem" and "earthly branch" to represent year, month, day and hour respectively, such as Jiazi Year, Bingyin Month, Xin Chou Day and Renyin Time. There are two eight characters in each column and eight characters in four columns, so fortune telling is also called "batch eight characters" According to the nature of yin and yang and the relationship between the branches and branches of the five elements, it is speculated that people should forgive and blame, and using four pillars to push fortune-telling is also called fan fortune-telling

This fortune-telling method is also called astrology because it evolved from ancient astrology. People in ancient China believed that heaven and earth corresponded. The geographical distribution of Kyushu corresponds to the stars, and all beings correspond to the stars. The gold, wood, water, fire and earth that make up the world also correspond to Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn in the sky. The sun represents yang and the moon represents yin, so the theory of yin-yang and five elements is combined with astrology.

Man's fate is controlled by the five elements of astrology. Different people have different astrological elements, so their fate is different. Four-pillar divination consists of heavenly stems and earthly branches, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Four Seasons, Five Directions (Four Seasons refer to spring, summer, autumn and winter, and Five Directions refer to East, South, West, North and Middle), Zodiac, Star Gods (with the same meaning as "Four-pillar Gods") and their relationships. The following are introduced by Mr. Xu Chao.

After the arrangement of four pillars and eight characters, the program is to push fate, that is, to infer fate according to the eight characters. The inferred contents include the Universiade, the Universiade, the fleeting time, the palace of life, the use of gods, the star gods and so on.

The first step in arranging the Universiade is to find out the age of departure. All men born in the years of A, C, E, G, and Ren Xu, and all women born in the years of B, D, Ji Si, Xin Si, will be counted from my birthday to the next solar term ("Festival" refers to beginning of spring, Jingzhi, Qingming, Changxia, Mangzhong, Xiaoshu, beginning of autumn, Bailu and Hanshu in the 24 solar terms. The rest are called "qi"), and three days are one year old; On the other hand, if a woman born on a sunny day and a man born on a cloudy day count backwards from my birthday to the last holiday, three days are also one year old, and the remaining day is four months, and one hour is ten days.

Step two, heavenly stems and earthly branches, who's lucky? The main branch of the Universiade is launched on a monthly basis. If the departure age is the serial number, it is arranged according to the next branch of the birth month; If it is the countdown, the Universiade branches are arranged in turn from the last branch in the month of birth. If the moon is born ugly, the main branches of the Universiade are Renyin, Guimao, Chen Jia, Yiji and Bingwu in chronological order ... The reverse order of the main branches of the Universiade is Gengzi, Jihai and Wuxu.

Each branch of the Universiade is in charge of good or bad luck for five years. When watching the dry weather, you can watch it together with the earthly branches or separately.

Universiade, also known as the Lunar New Year, is a good or bad luck for children before they are admitted to Universiade. The inference of Universiade is basically consistent with Universiade. The difference is that the Universiade is based on the branch of time and calculated according to the Universiade calculation method. Universiade is used to make up for the shortage of Universiade, but it is not as important as Universiade.

Time flies, that is, the year when the fortune teller asked for fortune telling. Fortune-tellers generally infer the situation of fortune-telling yuan in that year according to the situation of fleeting time and the eight characters of fate yuan, fierce or auspicious.

Using God refers to the five-element pronoun that represents one's eight-character or Japanese column and plays an auxiliary and remedial role in the Universiade. If the five elements of daily work are too weak, they will be supported by the five elements of giving birth to me or my peers; If it is too strong, it will be suppressed by me or others. If you use God's power in your life, it will be your second life. If you don't use God, it will be your next life. In astrology, it is one of the keys to fortune telling. For example, those who work hard on Japanese wood are born at an untimely time and lack similar support. If they have my water in their horoscope or Universiade, they can turn an enemy into a friend. If the yang is dry, two trees will grow in spring, which will not only be strong, but also support too much. If there is gold in the wood, you can use the official evil spirit to balance your strength.
