Its content guides the farming opportunity of working farmers in China, so it is also called the farmers' calendar. People in the Gregorian calendar are also commonly known as "general books".

The historical development of the yellow calendar;

1. In ancient times, people imagined that there was a celestial body running at the same speed as the old star, but in the opposite direction to the old star, which was called "Tai Sui". The old star is positive, and it rotates to the right in the sky, that is, in the four directions of west, south, east and north, while Tai Zi is negative. It rotates to the left in the local area, that is, in the four directions of east, south, west and north, all of which are twelve-year cycles.

2. Official calendars were quite popular in the Tang Dynasty, and even privately printed. Because the almanac is a tool for the emperor to promulgate the calendar, people also call it the "imperial calendar". Now we can see the earliest imperial calendar in China, one is the calendar printed in Tang Xizong in the fourth year of Ganfu (AD 877), and the other is the calendar printed in Tang Xizong in the second year of Zhonghe (882).
