" Five Elements Great Meaning " says: "The great rifle is used to capture the feelings of the five elements and occupy the building of the fighter. He started to call the day [Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui] to name the day, which is called the stem. He is used to call the month, which is called the branch."

Da rifle is a historian of the ancient Huangdi period. By observing the nature of the yin and yang and the five elements and observing the laws of the movement of celestial bodies, he created the ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches , which are used to name every day and every month.

Use heavenly stems and earthly branches to make a classification of yin and yang: Jia, Bing, Wu, Geng, and Ren are yang, and Yi, Ding, Ji, Xin, and Gui are yin. Zi, Yin, Chen, Wu, Shen, and Xu are yang, while Chou, Mao, Si, Wei, You and Hai are yin. Then, using the rules of yang to match yang and yin to match yin to match the heavenly stems and earthly branches, we will match , 60 Jiazi , and using 60 Jiazi to record time is the Chinese astronomical calendar. For example, according to astronomical calendar today is: Renyin year Gengxu month Xinyou day.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches play a very important role in Chinese culture. In addition to simply recording time, there are many other applications. For example, if it matches the five elements, each heavenly stem has its own five elements: Jia and Yi are wood, Bing and Ding are fire, Wu and Ji are earth, Geng and Xin are metal, and Ren and Gui are water. Earthly Branch plays more a role in the environment, such as when it is Yin, the wood is strong, and when it is Shen, the metal is strong, etc. This leads to another relationship between the heavenly stems and earthly branches: the twelve generations and prosperity.

Twelve Shengwangku describes the energy state of each heavenly stem in each earthly branch environment. For example, the state of Jia in Yin is the Linguan. Energy begins to be born from the fetus, and after nourishing, eternal life, bathing... until Diwang is the strongest state, and then weakens from Diwang again. After dying, illness, death, and tomb to the weakest state. The relationship between the five elements and the twelve generations and prosperity databases is often used in numerology.

Another application is to control the heavenly stems and earthly branches to the nine palaces, which gives the heavenly stems and earthly branches the properties of time and space. Space is the direction where the heavenly stems and earthly branches are located, and time is the twelve months and twelve hours represented by the earthly branches. It should be noted that the direction of the Nine Palaces is to go up, south, north, left, east, right, west, which is the direction determined by the ancients towards , south, and east, opposite to what we are using now. This type is often used in numerology, Qimen Dunjia and geomancy.
