When is the auspicious day? I’m going home.

The word "auspicious day" appears frequently in China folk culture. In civil life activities, we often hear or see weddings, funerals, sacrifices, occupations, business cooperation, building houses, business trips, etc. And we all need to look for "auspicious day" to make our work smooth, especially in the period of the revival of traditional culture in China, the idiom "auspicious day" has become hot again. There is a fault in China's traditional folk culture, so that many modern people don't understand the origin of "auspicious day", so blind pursuers appear and regard it as a classic: one-sided critics regard it as a scourge. Waiting for strange things in society.

So, what is an auspicious day? "ecliptic" is a term in ancient astronomy, and the ecliptic is the orbit of the earth around the sun. Its astronomical theory originated in ancient Babylon and was introduced into ancient Greece, from Greece to India around the Gregorian calendar, and from Sui and Tang Dynasties to China with the translation of Buddhist scriptures. At that time, China's astronomical calendar had a mature astrological system of 28 constellations, so the introduction of the zodiac did not have much impact on China's traditional astronomy. It was not until the end of the Ming Dynasty that Christian missionaries introduced a large number of western astronomy to China, and the zodiac was gradually widely used.

It's just that the location of the zodiac is the same as the solar calendar in China, and the distribution of the 24 solar terms and the 28 nights is the same, which is why the zodiac is integrated into China astronomy. The formation of China planetarium astrology system itself is based on the ancient astrology theory, so the concept of constellation is naturally used by astrology. He not only used astrology, but also played a great role in agriculture and weather forecast.

In fact, "the auspicious day of the ecliptic" is explained in a great sense from the weather forecast. Imagine what will happen to activities such as marriage, funeral, business cooperation, building breaking, business trip, tourism, and even natural disasters? I don't think anyone wants this to happen.

The word "auspicious day" is not a superstition, it represents a longing for all good things, which is understandable. As for the "old calendar" that guides you to find a good day to see a doctor, make clothes, even take a bath and get a haircut, you don't have to abide by it. Because that is a thing of the past, there are indeed some dross in traditional culture. When we inherit and carry forward traditional culture, we should "take its essence and discard its dross". Make the past serve the present and make foreign things serve China. "(quotations from Chairman Mao). And "auspicious day" is an example of the combination of Chinese and western.

Therefore, "auspicious day" is not a bad thing in some ideologies, such as when will the Ninth National Games be held? What time does it close? The Preparatory Committee for the 9th National Games in Guangdong Province has put a lot of thought into this matter. After careful study and soliciting opinions from many parties, we finally chose two "auspicious days"
