Choose good luck (12)

Choosing an auspicious day is choosing an auspicious day. As a traditional custom in China, its origin is unknown. As a mathematical skill, choosing good luck has a history of more than two thousand years.

Broadly speaking, all numerology techniques, including Zhouyi Bagua, Taiyi, Liu Ren, Daoism, Bird Star, Chen Cong, fencing, geomancy, wind angle, astrology, loneliness, etc., can be collectively called fortune telling, all of which provide people with good or bad luck information through certain methods.

In a narrow sense, choosing auspicious days refers to a method of choosing auspicious days and auspicious hours according to the calendar, calculating according to the numerical values of year, month, day and hour, and comprehensively referring to determine the avoidance methods. To put it simply, the so-called auspicious day is to choose it according to a certain method, so China people directly call it "choosing a day", "watching a day" and "choosing a day". In ancient times, it was also called "Ji Juan" and "Georgie".

The art of choosing good luck was formed in the Han Dynasty, and there are many schools. According to the biographies of Japanese historians and Han Shufang's books, the technique of choosing good luck in Han Dynasty includes five elements, integrity, building and moving, Chen Cong, calendar, heaven and man, Taiyi, Feng Jiao, Qimen, Zheng Qi, Yuan Qi, six days and seven minutes, various trades and Japanese styles, and it is quite specialized.

The characteristic of choosing good luck in Han dynasty is "divide". The theories of various factions are self-contained. The technique of choosing good luck in later generations is characterized by combination. Various theories are integrated, and the Gregorian calendar is the form of expression. Therefore, the auspicious technique we see and the Gregorian calendar are a complex synthesis of auspicious choices.

What's the point of choosing a time to do good deeds, big or small? It's to worship heaven. The Historical Records says: "Gui Hu is in the south, and Tian Zijuan is in the north." Even if you have a wise heart, you should further judge the meaning of this sentence, indicating that you dare not act arbitrarily in order to respect heaven. Ancient gentlemen watched the celestial phenomena at home and played divination. After a thing happens, what divination, what stubbornness, what changes, and how to deal with it. As early as in my mind, it was clear.

Choosing a good luck means that human beings use wisdom and experience to find and determine the right time and space for various activities in the world. The key point is to fully grasp the timely opportunities brought by the harmonious relationship between time, place, people and above. Choosing good luck can meet people's psychological needs and increase their confidence and determination.
