Month source:

The legend of the month's origin comes from "Chang Xi Sheng Yue" in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" records that Emperor Jun had two wives, Xihe and Chang Xi. On Xihe's birthday, Chang Xi was born in the moon, so Chang Xi was also called the Moon Mother.

In fact, Xihe and Chang Xi were both officials responsible for formulating the calendar. It is recorded in "Shiben" that in order to formulate the calendar, the Yellow Emperor asked "Xihe to account for the sun, and Changyi to account for the moon." Changyi is Changxi, and the monthaccounting is to observe the cycle of the moon's twilight and lunar phases. This is "Changxi is born in ten years." The origin of "February".
