What does the eight-character refer to?

Birthdates (abbreviated as eight characters) refers to the calendar date of a person's birth. It has four columns and four branches, each with two words, and the eight characters are * * *.

Birthday plays an important role in Chinese folk beliefs, and Taoist priests and astrologers in ancient China calculated people's fate accordingly. In the almanac, there are basically annual and daily branches, while monthly and hourly branches can be calculated according to the annual and daily branches.

Constellation, or date of birth, is a person's date of birth. Annual stems and branches form annual columns, monthly stems and branches form monthly columns, daily stems and branches form daily columns, and seasonal stems and branches form hourly columns; One * * * four pillars, four stems and four branches * * * eight characters, so it is also called four pillars and eight characters. Eight-character numerology is a kind of knowledge that infers people's career, marriage, wealth, study, health and other things according to the theories of trunk and branch calendar, yin and yang and five elements. Also called Fan Fortune-telling, it is a fortune-telling method with a long history in China.

In the application, the annual column or the moon column is the main life, but most of them are based on the daily stem of the daily column. The annual stem represents ancestors, the monthly stem represents parents, and the daily branch represents oneself and brothers and sisters (I am male, and the daily stem represents brothers and sisters; I am a woman, my sister and brother, and I am the heir. Also take the life palace, fetus, Universiade, Universiade, and fleeting time, and cooperate with the five elements of old age and moon order to restrain blame.

There is a saying that due to the limitation of understanding, the traditional four pillars are not perfect not only in theory, but also in methods. For example, they don't know why the mechanism and principle of fate are formed, and they haven't formed a perfect way and method to predict the so-called four pillars of the sun law and the moon law. Therefore, to learn fortune telling, you need to constantly accept new knowledge and skills and constantly improve your prediction knowledge and ability!

How many kinds of eight characters are there?

A person should have accumulated considerable knowledge and a correct understanding of numerology from learning eight characters to writing masterpieces handed down from generation to generation. Every numerologist has different views on the quality of fortune telling, or how many horoscopes he has. This should be common sense, and there should be no different numbers. It can be seen that the research of these scholars is not rigorous enough. No wonder readers have different answers.

The eight-character combination is-year × month × day × hour multiplied by gender.

1. Year times 60

Jia Zi, Ye Chou, Bing Yin and Ding Mao have been in Guihai for sixty years. Years, relatively simple and uncontroversial.

2. Monthly times 12

The month is 12 months, and the month of each year is fixed. For example, in the first year, these months were Bing Yin, Ding Mao, Chen Wu, Keith and Geng Wu-Ding Chou. The first year is the same, and so are the twelve months.

The month of the second year is also the twelve months from Wuyin, Jimao-Jimao to Jimao, and it will never change.

Some books, multiplying the month by 60, are poor! There are no sixty changes in a month. You can't find Jiayin, Wuyin, Gengyin and Nonyin in Year A, just like there will never be Jiayin, Bingyin, Gengyin and Nonyin in Year B..

3. One day multiplied by 60

The day is Jiazi, Ugly B and Bingyin-the 60th day of Guihai, * * *. In this regard, some books think that it is 30 days. They think there are no more than 30 days in a month, and there are no 60 days. Others say it is multiplied by 29.5 days. They think that there are 30 days in the big moon and 29 days in the small moon, so the average month is 29.5 days. This is a specious concept.

Although there are only 30 days in a month, its branches and branches are not only fixed in a specific 30 days. For example, in 2004, Shen Jianian, 1 month, Bing Yinyue went from Guichou, Jiayin, Mao Yi and Chen Bing to Guiweiri. In 2064, Bing Yinyue came from Jihai, Gengzi and Xinsi. From then on, we can see that Shen Jianian in 2064, from Jihai Day to Renzi Day, was fourteen days, which Shen Jianian did not have in 2004. There are applications from other years! So in 30 days of a month, every branch combination will be taken down. There is a simple concept that about 365 and a quarter of a day a year cannot be divided by 60 of the combination of cadres and branches, and it cannot correspond forever.

As can be seen from the above explanation, 30 is neither 30 nor 29.5.

4. Time multiplied by 13.

Some people will think that there are only twelve hours in a day; How to multiply 13? This is because children are divided into early children and late children. Some numerologists regard it as the day after 1 1 pm, so it is wrong to divide a day into twelve hours. We can find from many life cases that it will not come true. As for those who multiply time by 60, it is even more unreasonable. Year, month, day and time are all very practical things. How can we use the simplest permutation and combination to think that a nail has 60 groups of stem and branch combinations, so multiply it by 60?

5. Gender Age 2

Although, in the same constellation, the interpretation of male life and female life is different in numerology, not only what happened is very different, but also the fate is different.

Take 1 times 2 times 3 times 4 times 5 to get 1 123200, which is the total number of eight characters.
