What does the auspicious zodiac mean?

"ecliptic" is an astronomical term. It means that the earth revolves around the sun once a year, and people see the circular route of the sun between celestial stars in a year, that is, the trajectory. The whole circle is 360 degrees, and people divide it into 12 equal parts, 30 degrees each.

In the old imperial calendar, the words 12 were respectively marked below each date in the imperial calendar: construction, division, full, etc., decision, implementation, destruction, danger, completion, receipt, opening and closing. All the days corresponding to the words "elimination", "danger", "determination", "support", "success" and "opening" are auspicious days, and the days corresponding to the words "construction, filling, peace, breaking, closing and closing" are all unlucky days.
