What does Xin in the year of Xin Chou stand for?

The Year of Love and Ugliness is a year of the lunar calendar, such as 190 1, 196 1, 202 1(60-year cycle).

Xin Chou is one of the main branches, and the order is 38. The former is a boxer and the latter is a non-yin. On yin and yang and five elements, the sweetness of heaven's dryness belongs to yin's gold, and the ugliness of earth's branches belongs to yin's soil, and gold is born.

The 38th year of the lunar calendar in China is called "the year of happiness and ugliness". In the following AD years, the number of years over 60 is divided by 4 1, or the number of years is subtracted by 3, and the remainder of division by 10 is 8, and the remainder of division by 12 is 2. The years from the first day of the first month of that year to New Year's Eve of the following year were "ugly years".

Calendars are not commonly used, but calendars are mostly used for numerology. Therefore, it is based on the solar term month, not the new moon, which is different from the Gregorian calendar year based on the lunar year. In fact, the year of "Ganzhi" which has been widely circulated in recent years began in beginning of spring that year. This is a numerology view, not a common folk practice.
