We all know that Yijiazi is 60 years old, but do you know why?

As we all know, the sixtieth year is also called the first child, which refers to the age of 60 years old. Add thirty-seven years, thirty-seven twenty-one, "sixtieth reunion", refers to two 60-year-olds, adding up to 141. Not to mention the next link, ancient and rare, seventy ancient rare, which means that people who live to be 70 years old are already very rare.

So, why is it that the default person in the year of Jiazi is 60 years old?What is the connection between this and the ancient chronology of the heavenly and terrestrial branches in China?

First of all, let's talk about the sexagenary branch. The earthly branch refers to the one at the beginning of the traditional zodiac, Zi Chou Yin Mao Chen, Wu Wu Wei Shen You, which can be used to record the year and also to count the time. There are only ten heavenly stems, which are A, B, C, D, pentahyl, hexagen, xin, and non dec.

The heavenly stem and the earthly branch are used together, from the beginning of the heavenly stem "A", with the earthly branch of the "son", this is the first year of Jiazi. Ten years later, the heavenly stem wheel is finished, and the earthly branch is not finished, so the heavenly stem starts from the beginning again, and the 11th year is the "Jiaxu" year. After 60 years of this reincarnation, the heavenly stem wheel has been reincarnated 6 times, and the earthly branch has been reincarnated 5 times, which is exactly the least common multiple of 10 and 12, and in the 61st year, "Jiazi" reunited, and a new reincarnation began!

In traditional Chinese thought, the heavenly stems are generally used in conjunction with the five elements of yin and yang. Five Elements, Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth!

East Evil, West Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, and Middle Divine Power, these are Jin Yong's "Five Uniques". So what do they have to do with today's topic?

It turns out that they are all secretly in conjunction with the five elements of yin and yang!The name of the Eastern Evil is Huang Yaoshi, and the traditional Chinese character for "medicine" is "medicine", which is the bottom of the wooden character. The so-called Oriental Green Dragon Jia Yimu, so Huang Yaoshi lives on Peach Blossom Island and wears a cyan robe!

The master of the Nandi lamp is the southern Vermilion Bird Bingding fire, so the "lamp" is fire, and the Nandi monk wears a fiery red monk's robe.

Zhongshentong's name is Wang Chongyang, **Wujiteng snake soil, so Wang Chongyang's original name is "Wang Zhe", and the word "Zhe" is on the side of the soil. The name of the western poison is Ouyang Feng, "Feng" is the side of the word "gold", the white tiger in the West is Gengxin Jin, and the white tiger is still white, so Ouyang Feng lives in the White Camel Mountain, and Ouyang Ke appears in a white robe. Northern Xuanwu Renshui is black, and black represents a low status in ancient times, so the surname of the seven princes of the northern beggar Hong is "Hong", which is a beggar.

A and B correspond to "wood", propylene corresponds to "fire", Wuji corresponds to "earth", Gengxin corresponds to "gold", and nondee corresponds to "water", plus the traditional Qinglong White Tiger Vermilion Bird Xuanwu. The five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth correspond to the 10 days of dryness! So why Jin Yong's use of traditional culture has reached the point of perfection, it can be seen from these small details!

Don't despise the wisdom of the ancients, and don't think that the ancients were ignorant just because we have advanced science and technology. In fact, the research results of the ancients are very breathtaking, and these treasures of wisdom are worthy of human research.

In fact, the five elements of yin and yang are extremely profound, all of which evolved from the "Book of Changes", this book of Chinese culture, no one dares to say that they understand it today, they can only say that they can read out their own opinions, which shows that the value is really immeasurable!

Because A and Zi are the first place of the heavenly stem and the earthly branch respectively, the heavenly stem is 10, the earthly branch is 12, and the least common multiple of the number 10 and the number 12 is 60, so it is said that a Jiazi is 60 years old, and people also become a Jiazi as a sixtieth Jiazi.

Because the heavenly stem and the earthly branch are matched in pairs in order, there are a total of sixty combinations, and there is no repetition, and one cycle is 60 years.

Because the ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches are matched in order, from Jiazi to Guihai, there are 60 combinations, called 60 Jiazi, so one Jiazi is 60 years.

We all know that Yijiazi is 60 years, because there are 12 earthly branches, and there are only 10 heavenly stems, so after combining them separately, it becomes 60, so it becomes 60 years.

Because there are a total of 60 combinations of symbols for ancient recorded years, from Jiazi to Kwai Hai, 60 combinations, when a round is over, it is exactly 60 years, so it is said that Yijiazi is 60 years.

Because the 10 heavenly stems and the 12 earthly branches are paired in order, such as Jiazi and Yichou, there are a total of 60 combinations, so it is 60 years.

The ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches are matched in two by two in order, from Jiazi to Guihai, a total of 60 combinations, called 60 Jiazi. So a nail sixty years.

The first year of a cycle in the Ganzhi year of the traditional Chinese lunar calendar is called "Jiazi year". In the following AD years, the number of years divided by 60 is more than 4, or the number of years divided by 10 is 4, and the remainder divided by 12 is 4, and the number of years from the beginning of spring of the current year to the beginning of spring of the following year is "Jiazi year". In the ancient Chinese calendar, A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and 癸 were called the "Ten Heavenly Stems", and Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai were called the "Twelve Earthly Branches".

The ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches are combined in a cycle: Jiazi, Yichou, and Bingyin. All the way to Guihai, a total of 60 combinations are obtained, called sixty jiazi, and so on and so forth, endlessly.

The year, month, and day are all 60 cycles.

YijiaziThe reasons for being 60 years are:

The ancients used ten heavens to stem twelve earthly branches.

With the coming year, a total of 60 combinations can be combined, and one combination represents a year. After one round, it is sixty years. Yijiazi is the abbreviation, which is the sexagenary branch.

The combination of a Zen posture starts the complete arrangement of the combination.

The ten days of stem are: A, B, C, D, pente, hexa, heptane, non dec. From A gamete to Jiazi, B to Chou for B Chou, and finally to the end is Non Xu, exactly 60 combinations, so it is 60 years.

The methods commonly used to calculate time in modern times are:

1. Hours. Generally, the cut-off time is subtracted from the start time. For example, from 1 o'clock to 10 o'clock, the time in between is 10-1 = 9 hours.

2. Number of days. It is generally the cut-off time minus the start time plus 1. For example, the 1st to the 10th is 10 days, if 10-1 = 9, only 9 days will be lost, and there will actually be 10 days, so add 1.

3. The number of months and years should be calculated in the same way as the number of days.

One Jiazi is 60 years because of the following: 戌 and Hai, according to the order of two by two correspondence can get Jiazi, B Chou and other combinations, all corresponding to just sixty.

As early as 2697 B.C., when the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of China, founded the country, he ordered the Daluo clan to explore the qi of heaven and earth, ** five elements (gold, wood, water, fire and earth), starting with A, B, C, D, E, G, XIN, NON, and other ten days, and Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Riwu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and other twelve earthly branches, which cooperate with each other into sixty Jiazi for the symbol of the calendar.

The ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches are matched in two by two in order, from Jiazi to Guihai, a total of 60 combinations, called 60 Jiazi. The most basic and most popular "numbers" are not man-made regulations, but people's records of the laws of nature. The original ** is a record of the movement of the stars of the solar system, that is, the "three elements and nine fortunes".

One Jiazi is 60 years, and those 100 years are a century. Usually refers to a continuous hundred years, and when used to calculate the days, the century usually begins from an era that is divisible by 100 or a year thereafter, such as 2000 or 2001, which is an odd number of years after the era of Jesus, where 1 year usually indicates the year of Our Lord, so the first century runs from 1 AD to 100 AD.

Using the matching of the heavenly stem and the earthly branch cycle as the name of these gods, although the scientific principle of the sixty jiazi cannot be deciphered, the reason why the five luck and six qi theory and the four-pillar numerology theory of the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" derived from it have been able to survive for thousands of years is that in the field of natural science, the role of the sixty jiazi is also huge.

A century is a hundred years, which generally means a hundred years that last. The "New Century Year" is a major in astronomy.

There are two trends in the collation of the years of the living era, one is according to the number of digits, and the other is invented according to the whole year. Ages make up the century, and the century makes up the millennium. The number of bindings is the 0s is being searched and sorted out, and each era is counted in the century, by the 0s. 2020s.
