The origin of Guihai year

The ancient Chinese used these 60 pairs of branches to represent the serial numbers of years, months, days and hours, and this is the chronology of branches.

The chronology of cadres and branches begins in beginning of spring with 24 solar terms, and it is the chronology method of the calendar of cadres and branches. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar). After the Republic of China, the emperor's year number was abandoned, and the lunar calendar can only record the year with dry branches, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve, which is indisputable. Lunar calendar and trunk calendar are two different calendars, which are different in the starting point of a year, the division rules of months and the number of days in each year. Due to the use of the Gregorian calendar after the Republic of China, many people lack calendar knowledge, so they often confuse the calendar with the lunar calendar.

In China, the traditional society adopted the "dry-branch calendar year", which is still used in the vast rural areas of China, because it is suitable for agricultural production with strong seasonality. This calendar related to the moon's profit and loss is also called "lunar calendar" (because ancient China people called the moon "moon star"). The chronology of trunk branches is matched with "heavenly stems" and "earthly branches"; "Tiangan" is a, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Ren and Gui; The earthly branches are Zi, Ugliness, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. Match A, C, E, G and Ren in the ten-day trunk with the sub-circulation, Yin, Chen, noon, Shen and deficiency in the twelve branches, and then match B, D, Ji, Xin, Ghost with Ugliness, Mao, Si and Wei in the ten-day trunk, and you can get sixty combinations. , known as sixty jiazi. The twelve earthly branches are combined with twelve kinds of animals: rats, ugly cows, silver tigers, hairy rabbits, dragons, snakes, afternoon horses, sheep, monkeys, pheasants, dogs and porcupines; Every year, there is a combination as the "Zodiac" of that year, and people born in that year take this "Zodiac" as their own "Zodiac"; It circulates every twelve years. The year of Guihai is the year of the pig, and all the people born in this year are pigs. In the five elements, decyl belongs to water, so people born this year are heavy yin.
