How to understand "May Day" and "Geng Day" in ancient calendars?

Mayday and Gengri in the ancient calendar are calculated according to the statistical method of ancient heavenly stems and earthly branches, which has no special significance, just a name.

E refers to land, also refers to rocks, mainly refers to solid and thick land. Bentonite is a dry soil and cannot be planted. The ancients usually used e to refer to mountains and dry land. Geng means metal, and Geng also refers to large weapons, such as swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. So Geng Jin is enterprising and effective.

May Day refers to Earth Day, and Geng Day refers to Golden Day. In fact, whether it is a local day or a golden day, it has no special significance to take it out alone. It is a kind of address. Must be combined to make sense.

For example, on May Day, is there any conflict between your eight characters and those committed on May Day? If you make a mistake, you'd better not do too radical activities on this day. Moreover, May Day is also Earth Day. It is best not to break ground, plant or touch anything related to soil on this day.

On the other day, it depends on whether your horoscope conflicts with this day. If you make a mistake, don't touch any metal. For example, don't touch the kitchen knife or the axe. And don't go to places with too much metal, such as large factories, construction sites and so on.

There are also old sayings about auspicious days and unlucky days on the ecliptic. Counting days by days is also convenient for calculating good days and bad days. Because the ancients were superstitious, they all hoped to choose an auspicious day for weddings, wedding banquets, birthdays and Chinese New Year. They could pray for the whole family to get rid of diseases and avoid evil spirits, and bless the whole family to live a good year without being affected by disasters.

The purpose of ancient statistics is only to facilitate calculation. Of course, it also reflects the wisdom of the ancients and the cultural background at that time. There's no harm in understanding.

Of course, with the development of the times, superstition is out of date. And now it is calculated according to the solar calendar, and the lunar calendar is getting farther and farther away from us.
