What is the year of happiness and ugliness? 、

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

The Xin Chou Treaty, also known as the Xin Chou Peace Treaty and the Beijing Protocol, was signed on July 25th (190 1) in the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu, hence the name Xin Chou Treaty. Because the signing date of the treaty is September 7 in the solar calendar, there is a saying of "1997 national humiliation".

There are ten heavenly stems, namely A, B, C, D, E, Ji, G, Xin, Ren and Gui, and twelve earthly branches, namely Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. The ancients put them together in the order of Jiazi, Ugly B and Bingyin (that is, the sky turns six times and the earth turns five times, which is just a cycle). Sixty pairs from Jiazi to Guihai are called Jiazi.

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".

Lunar calendar is a dry calendar, and solar terms are used to guide agricultural production. Branches and branches are not divided into solar terms, regardless of traditional habits or official calendars.
