In ancient times, people had to choose an "auspicious time" when they got married, built a house and moved. How is this auspicious time determined?

Ancient people pay attention to auspicious times, building houses, moving houses and getting married, all of which are done at a good time in order to get a good omen and hope that things will go smoothly. The method of determining auspicious time is very complicated. They generally calculate auspicious time according to the zodiac signs of heavenly stems and earthly branches, Yin-Yang, Five Elements and Twelve Gods. If they get married, they must consider several constellations and birthdays.

The essence of choosing auspicious time is to pursue the law of space-time operation and the gas field of upcoming events, which can make the upcoming events go smoothly. However, auspicious time is not fixed, it depends on specific things. There used to be such a story about Ji Shi.

According to legend, after Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, he also liked traveling incognito. On one occasion, he took his strategist Liu Bowen and his general Xu Da out for a private visit. When they came to a village, they saw someone getting married. Liu Bowen, a military adviser, suffered from occupational diseases. After calculation, he found that life was hard and he was not suitable for marriage. He said to Zhu Yuanzhang. I don't know which gentleman is blind. Today is the day when the Five Ghosts are in power. ? A white-haired old man came out and said, I have set this day for the old and the young. Today is indeed the day when the Five Ghosts are in power, but I have also figured it out that there will be two tigers in Yi Long passing through our village today, so this unlucky day has become an auspicious day. ? Hearing the old man's words, the three of them immediately looked at him with new eyes.

China's tradition of choosing auspicious days is still circulating. Auspicious days may not have the same science, but they are also people's yearning for a better life.
