12 Zodiac and 12 Hour List

It is a long-standing ancient custom to match the "Zodiac" and "Twelve o'clock" together, which is called the Zodiac for short. It is said that the China Zodiac was first used to calculate the year in ancient times, and then heavenly stems and earthly branches was used to calculate the time. According to the rising time of the sun, the travel time and activity time of animals, twelve kinds of animals are regarded as the zodiac, and then a day and night are divided into twelve hours on average according to the zodiac. In this way, each animal represents an hour. Let's take a look at the list of 12 zodiac signs and 12 hours.

12 Zodiac and 12 Hour List

Rodents: From 1 1 p.m. to 1 p.m. the next afternoon (that is, "children's time"). The last moment of a day is also the beginning of a new day. At this time, the mouse is the most courageous and active, so it is matched with the mouse when it is young.

Bull: 65438+ 0-3 am (that is, "ugly time"). It is said that it is time for cows to start farming at sunrise. At this time, the cow has eaten enough grass, and "chewing backwards" is the thinnest, slowest and most comfortable, so when it is ugly, it is matched with the cow.

Tiger: 3-5 am (that is, "Yin Shi"). Yin Shi was the time when the Arabian Nights were exposed. At this time, it is time for the tiger to start action. Tigers are the most active, fierce and easily injured, so Yin Shi matches tigers.

Rabbit: 5-7 am (that is, "Shi Mao"). At this time, the sun has not yet revealed its face, and the glory of the moon has not completely retired. Jade rabbit is the representative of the moon and the only animal in the myth of the Moon Palace. At this time, human rabbits began to come out for food. In this way, Shi Mao will match the rabbit.
