Next year is the Year of the Rabbit, the year is in the fire, and February is leap, which is the longest year in the lunar year. As the saying goes: In the Year of the Rabbit, what does it mean to look at the Xu dog, and the sun and the moon combine with Kui Lou? How did rabbits

Next year is Year of the Rabbit , the year is in the fire, and February is leap, which is the longest year in the lunar year. As the saying goes: . The Year of the Rabbit is . The Sun and Moon are combined with . Kuilou. What does mean? How did rabbits and dogs come about? Why are Mao and Xu combined? How did the six-member relationship of the earthly branches come into being?

How did the earthly branches come from?

Twelve Earthly Branches was originally a synonym for the twelve directions, and was formed by the twenty-eight constellations circled around the sky. The twenty-eight constellations are divided into four groups, and the tail of Qinglong is connected to the head of Xuanwu , which is located between the skip buckets. The tail of the Xuanwu is connected to the head of White Tiger , and it is located between the Kui Wall. The tail of the white tiger is connected to the head of , the Vermillion Bird, and its position is between the well ginseng. The tail of the Vermillion Bird is connected to the head of the Azure Dragon, and it is positioned between the horn pegs.

Twenty-eight constellations are divided into twelve times, that is, twelve directions, among which the north direction is the second "Xuanzi", including the female constellations, Xusu and Weisu . The Xusu is also called Xuri Rat , and its position is in the Zi, so this direction is called Zimo . The southern direction is the second of quail fire , including Liusu , Xingsu and Zhangsu . The star is also called Xingri Horse, and its position is in Wu, and this direction is called Wu Horse.

After these twelve simplifications, they are the twelve earthly branches, which were originally the concept of direction. The reason why the twelve earthly branches are profound and profound is that their power is not fixed, and it depends on the power of the celestial body running to that direction. Therefore, the same Mao has different powers in the year and the moon.

When year old star runs until the second of the fire, the corresponding year is the year of the rabbit. When the sun runs on ecliptic until the fire is second, it is frost drop solar term. If the twelve earthly branches simply represent the power of a certain celestial body, it would be much simpler.

combinatorial of the earthly branches

combinatorial of the earthly branches is actually the combination of the power of the celestial body, that is, the combination between the earth and the sun and the moon. The movement of celestial bodies is actually a perspective formed by the earth's movement as a reference object. For example, the earth's revolution and rotation from west to east lead to the sun rising and setting in the east every day. In fact, it is an illusion that people see when standing on the earth.

The earth orbits the sun, and the sun also runs around the eclipse, but the directions of the two are exactly the opposite. For example, the winter solstice is the ultimate sun traveling south, but in fact the earth runs to the north of the sun. The summer solstice is the extreme northward of the sun, which means that the earth is on the south side of the sun, one is left-handed and the other is right-handed.

As the earth rotates, the direction of the handle of the bucket is also moving. It rotates one circle a year and rotates left to the sky, which is called Yangjian. If the handle of the Dou pointing to the east, the world will be full of spring; if the handle of the Dou pointing to the west, the world will be full of autumn. The direction of the handle of the bucket reflects the position of the earth. The handle of the bucket refers to Yin, which is the month of Yin. The handle of the Dou refers to Mao, which means the month of Mao, which is the in January.

When the handle of the bucket points to the northeast Yin position, it is the middle of the month of Yin, which is the Rain Water solar term. At this time, the sun is at the octave of the northwest direction, and room stay is room fire pig , corresponding to the northwest position. Therefore, the first month is Yin, and the sun is in Hai, and Yin and Hai are in harmony. When the handle of the bucket points to the east Mao position, it is the vernal equinox. At this time, the sun is at , Kui Su , fourteen degrees.

Kui Su is Kui Mulang , Lou Su is Lou Jingou . Both of these constellations belong to the second place of " descending Lou ", and their position is in Xu. Therefore, in the second month, the sun is in Xu, and Mao and Xu are in harmony. When the handle of the bucket points to the southeast Chen position, it is the Grain Rain solar term. At this time, the sun is three degrees in Pleiades . Pleiades is Pleiades ji , which is located in You, so the three months are Chen, the sun is You, and Chen and You are in You.

April Jiansi is the Xiaoman solar term, the sun is at the fourth degree of Betelgeuse, and Betelgeuse is ginshui ape . Both are the second of real Shen, and its position is in Shen, so Si Shen is in harmony. In May, Wu is built, and the handle of the bucket refers to Wu as the summer solstice. The sun is located at 25 degrees in Well, which is between " Well Wooden Beast " and Gui Jinyang , which is next to the quail. Its position is in Wei, so Wu and Wei are in harmony.

The handle of the Great Heat solar term refers to Wei. The sun is in the four degrees of the stars, that is, among the stars, sun and horses in the south. Its position is in Wu, so Wei Wu is in the conjunction. In July, Shen is built, the sun is in Si, and Shen and Si are combined. In August, you are built, the sun is in Chen, and Chen and You are in harmony. In the ninth month, Xu is built, the sun is in Mao, and Xu is combined. In October, Hai is established, the sun is in Yin, and Yin and Hai are in harmony. Zi month builds Zi, the sun is in Chou, and Zi and Chou are in conjunction. The moon of Chou builds Chou, the sun is in Zi, and Chou and Zi are in harmony.

At this point, the earth rotates and the sun also runs in the opposite direction in the ecliptic. During the process of running each other, one rotates left in the sky and the other rotates right in the sky. There are two encounters, and the positions of encounter are Zi and Wu, so Zi and Wu are in harmony with each other's positions, Zi and Chou are combined with earth, and Wu and Wei are also combined with earth.

The moon orbits the earth once a month, so the moon meets the sun once a month, which is called the convergence of the sun and the moon. The month of Yin is in Hai, the month of Mao is in Xu, the month of Chen is in You, the month of Si is in Shen, and the month of Wu is in Wei, which goes against the direction in order. Therefore, the six combinations of the earthly branches are actually the combination of the earth, the sun and the moon, that is, the combination of the moon building and the moon general.

The "Lihai Collection" of the Ming Dynasty says: Liuhe is the combination of the sun and the moon when they meet Zi, and then the battle is made of Chou. When the sun and the moon are made of Chou, then the battle is made of Chou, so Zi and Chou are combined. If the sun and the moon meet in Yin, the Dou Bu Hai will be built. If the sun and the moon meet in Hai, the Dou Bu Yin will be built, so Yin and Hai will be combined. If the sun and the moon meet in Mao, Dou builds Xu. If the sun and the moon meet in Xu, Dou builds Mao, so Mao and Xu combine.

Of course, while the earth revolves around the sun, the other celestial bodies are also operating. Since other celestial bodies have not had that much impact on the earth, they are ignored. Next year is the Year of the Rabbit, that is, the year of Mao, Mao and Xu are combined, and Mao wood produces fire. Mao is the Xianchi of Yin, Wu and Xu, which is the cherry blossom year of tiger, horse and dog. A white star is in the southwest of , so it is easy for single Xu dogs to find a partner.
