It takes beginning of spring as the beginning of the year, and divides the year into twelve months with twenty-four solar terms. Every month contains two solar terms, and there is no leap month.

The dry calendar is related to the periodic movement of the earth around the sun, which can reflect the climate change throughout the year. Since ancient times, the Ganzhi calendar has been widely recognized by the government and the people, and has been applied to astronomy, geomantic omen, numerology, choice and traditional Chinese medicine, and recorded in the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar).
