Man is a higher animal on the earth, and there are ten human fingers representing ten stems, and there are twelve months in a year that are listed as twelve according to the chronology of the Heavenly Stem Revolution, according to the formula of the movement of the sun and the planets.

The orbital period of Jupiter, the 12 earthly branch, is 12 years.

It should be ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches.

Ten cadres said: Yan Feng, Zhanmeng, Rouzhao, Qiangyuan, Zhuyong, Tu Wei, Shangzhang, Chongguang, Xuanhuang, Zhaoyang.

The twelve branches are: Sleepy, Chifenruo, Setig, Shan Yan, Zhixu, Dahuangluo, Dunqia, Xieqia, Shutan, Zuoo, Eunmao, and Dayuanxian.

The simplified heavenly stems and earthly branches: "A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and 癸" are called the ten heavenly stems, and "Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai" are called the twelve earthly branches.

Stems and Stars.

According to modern astronomical knowledge, it can be known that the 28 constellations of Zhou Tian are composed of stars, and astronomically the stars are very stable, their relative positions remain unchanged for thousands of years or even longer, and their influence on the earth is also relatively stable.

The earth and other planets in the solar system continue to revolve around the sun, and the entire solar system is relative to the North Star (that is, the purple microstar) position unchanged in the Milky Way to do spiral rotation, which forms a change in the position relationship between the stars due to the movement of the sun and the moon and the five stars, and then changes the impact of specific stars on the earth and everything on the earth.

Astronomically, the plane of the zodiac is divided into 12 signs, and the sun is divided into 12 months. Therefore, in ancient times, the zodiac signs were named after the earthly branches, and the twelve signs corresponded to the twenty-eight houses, that is, the uterus had three houses: female, void and dangerous; The ugly palace has two nights of fighting and bulling; Yin Palace has two nights of tail and kei; Mao Palace has three nights: 氐, room and heart; Chen Palace has horns and two nights; The palace has wings and two nights; There are willows, stars, and Zhang Sansu in the afternoon palace.

There are wells and ghosts in the palace; Shen Gong has two houses; The Yougong has three nights: stomach, pleiades, and Bi; There are Kui and Lou two houses in the palace; There are rooms and walls in the palace. Therefore, the astronomical image of the 28 Nakshatras is the image of the earth branch in the Ganzhi Study, and there are 28 stars hidden in the 12 earth branches, and its meaning is also ** here.

In the characteristics of the five elements of A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and QI, it shows that A and B carry the wind, the C and Ding carry the fire, the Wu Ji carries the moisture, the Gengxin carries the dry energy, and the non 癸 carries the cold energy, which shows that the five elements in the heavens are running and changing in accordance with the procedures of the five elements.

Running in a unique program shows that the qi of the five elements on the earth has another kind that follows the law of the five elements. The heavenly stem indicates the law of the five qi in the heavens, and the earthly branch indicates the law of the five qi on the earth.

It refers to the 1st and 2nd days of each tenth month of the lunar calendar, that is, the 1st and 2nd days of the lunar month, the 11th and 12th, and the 21st and 22nd days of the lunar month.

According to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches: "A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and DE" are called the ten heavenly stems.

Each month is divided into three parts, 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, a cycle of ten days, and ten days is a decade.

From the 1st to the 10th, 11th to 20th, and 21st to 30th days, they are: the first day, the second day, the third day, the third day, the second day, the fifth day, the second day, the first day, the first day, and the second day.

The ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches are matched in turn to form sixty basic units, and the two cooperate with each other in a fixed order to form the Ganzhi Era Law. The invention of the sexagenary branch had a far-reaching impact, and it is still used today, in various aspects such as calendars, arithmetic, calculation, and naming.

Ten days of stems: 甲 (jiǎ), B (yǐ) 丙 (bǐng), 丁 (dīng), 戊 (wù), 己 (jǐ ) 庚 (gēng), 辛 (xīn), 壬 (rén), 癸 (guǐ).

Twelve Earth Branches: 子 (zǐ)) ugly (chǒu), 寅 (yín), 卯 (mǎo), 辰 (chén), 巳 (sì), 午 (wǔ), 未 (wèi), 申 (shēn), 酉 (yǒu), 戌 (xū), 海 (hài).

The ten stems and the twelve branches are matched in turn to form sixty basic units, and the two cooperate with each other in the order of carrying the keys to form the discipline of the cadres and branches. Judging from the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in Yinxu, the sexagenary branch was mainly used in ancient China for the Zhaoyin century, and it was also used to record the month, the year, and the time.

In ancient China, A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and 癸 were called "ten heavenly stems", according to historical records, Tiangan** in ancient China's Central Plains is a non-Sino-Tibetan number word system, the original use of ethnic groups may have integrated into the Han nationality, or may have left the Han nationality, but the writing they used has survived in the Central Plains. And "Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai are called the twelve earthly branches, which are the core content of ancient astronomy in the Middle Ages, and astronomy is the law summarized by the observation of the stars. The combination of the heavenly stem and the earthly branch in a fixed order constitutes the Ganzhi method.

The Ganzhi chronology embodies the wisdom of the ancient Chinese working people, it is closely related to the astronomy, calendar, sacrifice, mathematics, philosophy, literature, etc. of the national dynasties, it is a treasure in human history, it represents the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient working people. At the same time, it is also an important component of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, which should be known by every Chinese and should be inherited by us.

The original Ten Heavenly Stems refer to: "Yan Feng, Zhanmeng, Rou Zhao, Qiang Yuan, Zhu Yong, Tu Wei, Shang Zhang, Chongguang, Xuanhuang, Zhaoyang", and the simplified "Ten Heavenly Stems" refer to: A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and Dec.

A stands for "demolition", which refers to the dismantling of all things. B stands for "rolling" and refers to the birth of all things. In the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, the two represent wood; C is actually "bing", which means that all things are seen in a bright way.

Ding means strong, which means that all things are strong. In the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, the two represent fire; E is "Mao", which refers to the abundance of all things. It means that it is a discipline, representing that all things are tangible and can be recognized.

In the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, the two represent earth; Geng represents the convergence of all things. Xin means new, which means that all things are harvested at the beginning of the new world. In the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, the two represent gold; Ren means Ren, which refers to the yang energy that nourishes all things.

癸 is the meaning of 揆, which refers to the degree of all things, and Ren and Aoi are all water in the five elements. Among them, methylpropionadeptane is positive, and ethylbutanhexine is negative.

Zi means Zi, which refers to the fact that all things sprout under the yang energy of the movement, so Zi Shi refers to the first hour of the twelve hours, that is, from 23 o'clock to 01 o'clock in the morning of the next day, Beijing time. Ugly is new, and yang energy has not descended on the top, so ugly time refers to 01:00 to 03:00 Beijing time. Yin is the meaning of shifting, leading, referring to the beginning of all things to rise, so Yin time is from 03:00 to 05:00 Beijing time.

Mao is Mao, which represents the sunrise, so Mao Shi refers to 05 o'clock to 07 o'clock. Chen is the meaning of earthquake, and things are long after vibration, so the time is from 07 to 09 o'clock. Si is the beginning, refers to the prosperity of yang energy, so Si Shi is close to noon when Yang energy is at its peak, 09 o'clock to 11 o'clock.

Noon means to be a big branch, and noon time represents 11 o'clock to 13 o'clock. Wei Wei Wei refers to the taste of all things, and Wei Shi refers to 13 o'clock to 15 o'clock. Shen means body, which means that the body of all things has been fulfilled, and Shen Shi refers to 15 o'clock to 17 o'clock.

酉 means old, representing going down into the trough, and unitary time refers to the evening sunset between 17 and 19 o'clock. 戌 represents extinction, all things are extinguished, the world enters dusk, and 戌时 refers to 19 o'clock to 21 o'clock in the evening. Hai is the meaning of the core, all things are collected, everything is quiet, and Hai Shi represents 21 o'clock to 23 o'clock in the middle of the night.

The so-called heavenly stem is the ten serial numbers, and the so-called earthly branch is the chronological number. The combination of the sexagenary branches is for the sake of the chronology, and there is no other meaning. There is no essential difference from the Common Era. If the Ganzhi era is mysterious, the A.D. era is also mysterious, is it mysterious?

The ten heavenly stems represent time, i.e., A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and DEC. The twelve branches represent the twelve zodiac signs, namely Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai.

The ten heavenly stems represent the state of growth and prosperity of all things, and the twelve earthly branches represent the order of the years, months, and hours.

The two cooperate with each other in a fixed order to form the Ganzhi Discipline Law. The heavenly stem uses six wheels, and the earthly branch uses five wheels, which is exactly 60 years for a week, which is called a jiazi, also called sixty flower nails.

It is composed of the Ganzhi Era method, which can be used to represent calendars, years, etc.

A, B, C, D is followed byE, he, g, xin, non, dec

In the Chinese calendar, A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, REN, and Gui are called the "Ten Heavenly Stems", and Zi, Chou, Yin, Yanshan, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai are called the "Twelve Earthly Branches". The two cooperate with each other in a fixed order to form the Ganzhi Discipline Law.

In the etymology, it is said that the stem branch is derived from the "dry branch" of the tree. The sexagenary branch formed a unique Chinese calendar, which is used to record the year, month, and day. In the Book of Changes and the Chinese medicine system, the Tiangan type corresponds to many relevant information, such as geographical location, five internal organs, etc.

The heavenly stem ** is counting, and a person has ten fingers. Ten is one month, and thirty is one month. Lot size is linked to astronomy.

The earthly branch ** is recorded in the twelve synodic months of the year, which are recorded in classics such as "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Huainanzi", "Shangshu" Fanwang Duan, and "Lü's Spring and Autumn".

The earth and the rest of the five stars are revolving around the sun, and due to the difference in orbit and speed, the relative positions of the planets are close and far away, which is the "planetary retrograde" in astronomical observations.

Under the guidance of the ancient Chinese theory of yin and yang, according to the two forms of the five stars relative to the position of the earth, close to and far away, the energy represented by the five stars is divided into yin and yang, and according to the energy of the five stars affecting the earth, it is sorted in order: A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and Dec.

The heavenly stem and the earthly branch match, and there are two more earthly branches without the heavenly stem to match, forming a ten-day void, also called empty death. This is due to the constant rotation and revolution of the sun, moon, stars and the earth, which stirs up the energy field of the zodiac, which is relatively stationary.

With the passage of time, the position of the sun and moon changed, and the position of the vortex also changed, the original vortex disappeared, and the adjacent place became a vortex, and the cycle began again and again, resulting in a reciprocating cycle of sixty jiazi.
