What day is the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month?

In 2020, the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month corresponds to the solar calendar: 202 1 0 1 2 1 Thursday.

The twelfth lunar month of the lunar calendar is the twelfth lunar month, which is what we call the lunar calendar, that is, the December (twelfth lunar month) written in Chinese characters under the Arabic numerals on the calendar.

December of the lunar calendar is called "twelfth lunar month", and it was also called "twelfth lunar month" in ancient times. This title has little to do with natural seasons, but mainly with the sacrifice at the age of 20. The so-called "wax" was originally the name of the year-end sacrifice. Han Ying Shao's "Customs" said, "Jia Ping and Qing Si, Zhou used big wax, and Han changed big wax. Those who wax and hunt say that they hunt in the fields to sacrifice their ancestors. " Or, "those waxes take over and hand over new and old things, so a big sacrifice is also a reward." Whether it is to sacrifice animals to ancestors after hunting or to sacrifice gods at the turn of the old and the new, it is necessary to engage in sacrificial activities in any case, so the twelfth lunar month is a "sacrificial month".

In modern times,1February in the lunar calendar is generally called "twelfth lunar month", but it is not necessarily1February in the early days. The twelfth lunar month was first popular in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Sima Qian, a historian of the Western Han Dynasty, used this concept in Historical Records: "In the second year of Hu Hai's twelfth lunar month, his father was in the lower city, and his royal family killed Qin." Some people translated the "twelfth month" of Chen Sheng's murder into "December" when translating Historical Records. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhang Yuyan was quoted as saying in Pei Zhi's Collection of Historical Records: "The twelfth month of Qin is the September of summer."
