How to calculate the calendar in China! ! ?

For example, Jia Zi is the first year, Ugly B is the second year, and Bing Yin is the third year ... Sixty years is a week. When the week ends, it will start from the year of Jiazi, start from the week, and start again and again. For example, 1929 is the lunar year, 1930 is the year of Gengwu ... and 1989 is the lunar year. The four years and Gengwu years we see on the calendar are arranged according to the chronology of cadres and branches. Divide the Gregorian calendar year by the remainder of 60, and then subtract 3 to get the serial number of the monthly branch of that year, and then check the monthly branch above to get the age of the monthly branch. If the serial number is less than or equal to zero, add 60 to the branch serial number. For example, find 199 1 year; 199 1÷60=33 Remaining 1 1, annual serial number of main branch = 1 1-3=8. Check the list of cadres and branches, and you will know that this year is the year of Wei Xin. For another example, find the main branch of 1983: 1983÷60=33+3, and the main branch serial number =3-3=0, plus 60. Look up the main branch table, and know that the year is Guihai.

The year of 1 has nothing to do with the year of the main branch. One records the year in the west, and the other records the year in the east.

But I can tell you about their relationship.

Have you ever heard of the "Yellow Emperor Chronology Law"? This year is the year of Emperor Huangdi in 4702, and the calendars of the main branches and branches of China started from the first year of Emperor Huangdi. You can figure out what year is the first year of the Yellow Emperor-it should be the year of Jiazi (note that there is no year).
