In ancient China, people used to use the lunar calendar to record, but the lunar calendar was actually a combination of yin and yang, which divided a year into December, twenty-four solar terms and seventy-two periods. The three months of 258 correspond to Uzuki, noon and full moon respectively. The ancients believed that these three months belong to the "four positive" months in the twelve earthly branches, representing the masculine position, so it is better for a boy to be born in a masculine month and may become a general in the future.

March, June and September in Good Woman March, June and September correspond to morning, month and full moon respectively. These three months belong to the four months in the twelve earthly branches, and the five elements belong to the earth.

However, there is no scientific basis for all this, and our fate is ultimately in our own hands.
