What do you think of birthdays?

As we all know, the ancients used heavenly stems and earthly branches as the calendar year, and a person's horoscope actually used heavenly stems and earthly branches as the horoscope of the calendar year: year, month, day and hour. Each of the four words is represented by a heavenly stem and a earthly branch, and a * * * character: four heavenly stems and four earthly branches. For example, this year is 20 10, which we call the Year of the Tiger. Yin is the heavenly stem and the tiger is the earthly branch. And every heavenly stem and every earthly branch has a corresponding five-element attribute.

? Therefore, to see whether a person's horoscope is short of any five elements, it is necessary to analyze whether the four heavenly stems and earthly branches's that make up the horoscope are short of anything. For example, none of the four heavenly stems and earthly branches contains five elements of fire, indicating that the constellation lacks fire or hits fire.

? Let's explain heavenly stems and earthly branches's five elements: A and B are trees, representing the East.

? C and d are fire, representing the south.

E, own soil, representing the central government.

? Geng and Xin Weijin represent the west.

? Ren Hegui is water, representing the north.

? (List 1)

? The five elements of earthly branches are not so easy to see, because there are often one, two or at most three heavenly stems hidden in earthly branches, and the heavenly stems hidden in this earthly branch are also called "branch * * * yuan", which means "heavenly stems are Tianyuan, earthly branches are Eupolyphaga, and people are between heaven and earth", so it is called Renyuan.

? The above words, that is to say, a branch of the earth is often composed of several five elements. Let's talk about the problem of earthly branches first, that is, to see which heavenly stems are hidden in each earthly branch and which five elements are hidden in the shade: A, C and E.

? Hidden in the hair: B.

? Chen Zhongcang: Hubei, B, Guangxi

? Hidden: c, g, e

? Hiding in the middle of the sky: Ding, Ji.

? Not hidden: ego, d, b

? Shen Zhongzang: Geng, Ren and Wu.

? You hide in the middle: Xin

? Hidden in the middle: Wu, Xin and Ding

? Hiding in the sea: Ren and Jia

? Zangzi: decyl

? Self, shame and hatred.

? (Listing 2)

Note: The first qi stem in the above table is also called the "primordial qi", which is simply the dominant five elements, that is, the primordial qi and the five elements account for the largest proportion. ? The reason is clear. Let's look at an example:

? Suppose a child was born at the moment I wrote the article: 20 10, 18: 48.

? Check the perpetual calendar (or online horoscope) to know the child's horoscope:

? Gengyin Wuyin Renzi Ji You

? That is to say, this person was born in Geng Yin, on Renzi Day (20 10-3- 18).

? Among them, the Japanese elephant trunk, that is, Xu Jiari's Japanese elephant trunk "A", represents the child himself. This child belongs to wood because it belongs to wood.

? Let's take a look at the five elements of four-day work: Geng, E, Ren and Ji. Check the list and you will know that they belong to gold, earth, water and earth respectively.

? Let's look at the four branches: Yin, Yin, Zi and You. Look-up Table 2: Yin has A, C and E, and it is vital. Look up the table 1, A belongs to wood, so Yin belongs to wood. There is only water in the seed: decyl and decyl are water, so the seed belongs to water. Only: Xin, Xin is gold, so you belong to gold.

Looking at the above four heavenly stems and earthly branches comprehensively, we can get: 2 soil, 2 water, 2 gold and 2 wood. At this time, we will find that the five elements only lack the top! So the child born at this time is said to be short of fire. If you figure out that they are missing one of them, it means that he is missing X in five lines.

? Through this example, I believe most people will know how to judge whether there is something missing in the five elements. Just find a perpetual calendar (or enter the birthday time in the online scheduling program) and find the corresponding eight characters (four days and four places). This is the simplest table lookup work, I believe everyone can.

? Having said that, I have to ask a question. Many numerologists often only look at the primitive qi of the earth branch when judging whether the five elements are indispensable, which will lead to misjudgment.

? For example, when these numerologists see Yin, they think that Yin belongs to wood (because the original qi of Yin is A, which belongs to wood), and ignore the hidden fire soil in Yin. Therefore, according to this view, a person's eight characters lack nothing, but these fortune tellers think that this person lacks so-and-so five elements, which must attract everyone's attention. You will know after reading this article. There is another problem that needs attention, that is, it does not mean that a person's horoscope lacks any five elements, so they must be supplemented. This view is wrong. precise ......

Introduction to eight-character fortune telling

Concept of four pillars and eight characters

Fortune-telling depends on the time of birth-that is, year, month, day and time. Each time concept is a column, and * * * is four columns. For example, Jiazi Year, Bingyin Month, Jiazi Day, Jiazi Time, etc. , so numerology is also called four pillars. There are two characters in each column and eight characters in four columns, so fortune telling is also called "batch of eight characters" According to the relationship between the connotation of yin and yang and the five elements of heaven and earth, it is speculated that people should rest their blame and be blessed.

This method of life measurement is also called astrology because it evolved from ancient astrology. The ancients believed that heaven and earth corresponded. The geographical distribution of Kyushu corresponds to the stars, and all beings correspond to the stars. The gold, wood, water, fire and earth that make up the world also correspond to Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn in the sky. The sun represents yang and the moon represents yin, so the theory of yin-yang and five elements is combined with astrology. Man's fate is controlled by the five elements of astrology. Different people have different astrological elements, so their fate is different. Four-pillar divination consists of heavenly stems and earthly branches, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Four Seasons, Zodiac, Star Gods and their relationships, which are varied and show a colorful life.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches Wuxing

The ancients took the sky as their work and the earth as their support. There are ten kinds of heavenly stems, including: A, B, C, D, E, Ji, G, Xin, Man and Ghost. There are twelve earthly branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, E and Hai. Heavenly stems and earthly branches used to record the sun. Ten stems and twelve branches are combined into sixty units in turn, with odd stems and odd branches, and even stems and even branches. From Jiazi to Guihai, * * * shuyun Ten is called Yunshijiazi. The ancients recorded the year, month and day in this way, and so on.

Time and ground support comparison table

23- 1 point, 1-3 point.

3: 00 to 5: 00, Zhong Shi spear from 5: 00 to 7: 00.

7-9 o'clock, 9- 1 1 point.

11-13 at noon13-15 in the afternoon.

15-17 point application time17-19 point one yuan time

& lt& gt It is said that the main branches were created with great efforts. Make a scene adopts the five elements of love and is made by a bucket machine. Party A and Party B use the name of the day as the basis, and the name of the month as the basis. There is something in the sky, using the sun, and there is something underground, using the moon. "Because of the difference between Yin and Yang, it has the name of branch. "

Ten days of work: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, Xin, n, C.

Twelve earthly branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai.

The meaning of heavenly stems:

A means of demolition means that everything is cut out.

B means rolling, which means everything is born and rolled out.

C means bing, which means everything sees bing.

Ding means strong, which means everything is strong.

E means lush, which means everything is thriving.

Self-discipline means that everything is tangible and binding.

Geng means more, which means that everything converges and is true.

New means new, which means that everything is harvested at a new time.

Ren means Ren, which means that Yang is in charge of everything.

Deck means slapping, which means you can slap anything.

It can be seen that the ten-day drought is related to the appearance of the sun, and the cycle of the sun has a direct impact on everything.

The meaning of the twelve earthly branches:

Zi is zi, which means that everything sprouts in the dynamic sun.

Ugly means "new button" and "tie", which are cute and long.

Yin means moving and drawing, which means that everything has been done so far.

Mao means adventure, which means everything comes out of the ground.

Chen means earthquake, and everything grows because of vibration.

Si means to get up, which means that everything has been completed at this time.

Noon means "noon", which means everything is grand and flourishing.

Nothing means ignorance, which means that Yin Qi has grown up. Everything is a little weak, warm and ignorant.

Shen means body. ......

How do I know my birthday?

Date of birth = date of birth, lunar calendar.

Eight characters = AB year CD month EF day GH time below eight words four columns

Four pillars = 1. Nianzhu = heavenly stems and earthly branches in the year of birth, for example: Year A and B, this year is Wuzi, and E is Tiangan: A, B, C, D, E, Ji, G, Xin, Ren and Gui are also called Ten Tiangan; Zi is the earthly branch: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, Shu and Hai. They are combined in order every year. Next year will be ugly.

2. Moon column = date of birth heavenly stems and earthly branches, for example: C D month.

3. Sun Gan = heavenly stems and earthly branches with a birthday, for example, E F Day.

(main star) is what people often call X (gold, wood, water, fire and earth).

4. Time column = heavenly stems and earthly branches at birth, for example, G H.

Time is the most commonly used:

Twelve hours a day are represented by branches of the lunar calendar. One hour in the lunar calendar spans two hours, so there are twelve hours in a day: before midnight-1a.m.

Yin Shi: 3 o'clock-before 5 o'clock in the morning.

Morning: 7: 00 am-before 9: 00 am

Noon: 1 1 o'clock-before 13 o'clock in the morning.

Shihai: 2 1 point-before 23 pm

You can look at the calendar, or some websites do it for free.

How do you know what you are missing on your birthday?

This can be queried through the perpetual calendar. If you are lucky enough to learn the formula of blind divination, one of the formulas can be directly memorized and inferred as soon as the date of birth is mentioned.

The date of birth you reported is 199 1, which is 5: 30 in the morning of February 18 of the lunar calendar. It's early spring, and it should still be in Yin Shi at 5: 30. The method of recording cadres and branches is Xin Weinian, Xin Maoyue, Ren Yinri and Ren Yinshi. So your birthdays are: Xin Wei, Xinmao, Renyin, Renyin. Among them, Xin is gold, not earth, but wood and water. There are 2 gold, 3 wood and 2 water 1 soil, and the five elements lack fire.

There are many trees in your life, and there are two kinds of aquatic animals, which are the image of Muwang. You need to exhaust your energy. When choosing a name, the words inside must be five elements of fire.

Of course, the name is acquired, and it won't have any influence on people's fate, so don't care too much. Just say it easily. As long as the words in the name do not repeat the names of the elders, it is enough that the words formed do not give the partner a nickname.

What do you think of people? Birthday, 30 minutes

Birthday, or eight characters, is actually another way of saying the four pillars of Zhouyi. Four pillars refer to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month, day and hour. When people use "heavenly stem" and "earthly branch" to represent year, month, day and hour respectively, such as Jiazi Year, Shen Bingyue, Xin Chou Day and Ren Yin, it contains the basic state of heavenly stem when a person is born. There are two words in each column and eight characters in four columns, so fortune telling is also called "measuring eight characters" According to the relationship between yin and yang attributes and the five elements of heaven and earth, it is inferred that human body is responsible and blessed.

Four pillars refer to the year, month, day and time when a person was born. Four-column arrangement refers to finding a person's date of birth. It is mainly divided into four steps.

Chronological column

Chronicle, that is, the year when a person was born, is expressed by stem and branch. Note that the dividing line between last year and next year is based on the intersection time of beginning of spring, not on the first day of the first month. For example, someone was born at 22: 00 on February 4, 2000 in the solar calendar. Since the lunar calendar was handed over to beginning of spring at 20: 32 on February 4, 2000, this person's date is the year of Chen Geng in 2000, not 1999.

The general algorithm of chronological column: the numbers from A to the deck of the sky stem correspond to 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3 respectively, and the numbers from the ground branch to Hai correspond to 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,1respectively. One-year trunk algorithm takes the last digit as the trunk and the ground branch as the remainder of one year divided by 12. Take 1978 as an example, the last digit of 1978 is 8, the stem is E, and the remainder when 1978 is divided by 12 is 10, and the corresponding branch is noon, so 1978 is the year of Wuwu.

Simple algorithm of chronology: the premise of this method is to know which zodiac year it is, which is generally used for fast calculation in recent years. Take 2009 as an example. As we all know, 2009 is the Year of the Ox. Because it's a cow,

Of course, the earthly branches are ugly, and the last nine years of 2009 correspond to heavenly stems, so 2009 is an ugly year.

Moon column

Moon column, that is, the festival in which the stems and branches represent the date of birth. Note that the monthly branch is not divided by the first day of each month in the lunar calendar, but by festivals. The festival before the handover is the festival of last month, and the festival after the handover is the festival of next month.

1 month (silver moon) from beginning of spring to Jingzhe, February (Uzuki) from Jingzhe to Qingming, March (Chen Yue) from Qingming to long summer, April (Mitsuki) from long summer to awning, May (noon) from awning to light summer, June (non-month) from light summer to beginning of autumn, and July (Shen Yue) from beginning of autumn. Monthly trunk and annual trunk branches refer to 1 chart and monthly table. If the annual stem is a or self, then the stem in the first month of that year is C Yin; If the annual stem is B or G, the stem in the first month of that year is Wuyin; If the annual work is C or Xin, the work in the first month of that year is Geng Yin; If the annual stem is Ding or Ren, then the stem in the first month of that year is Ren Yin; If the year's work is the Reform Movement of 1898 or the year's work in the first month of that year is Jiayin.

Sun ranks

It has been a long time since February of the third year of Lu Yingong (722 BC). This is by far the longest way to record a day known to human society.

The solar column, that is, the day when a person was born, is represented by branches of the lunar calendar. The calendars of cadres and branches are recorded every 60 days. Because the month is different from the leap year, daily cadres and branches need to check the perpetual calendar (an online perpetual calendar website: site. Baidu/list/ Li Wannian).

In addition, the dividing line between day and day is divided by hours, that is, before eleven o'clock is the hour of the previous day and after eleven o'clock is the hour of the next day, so don't think that midnight is the dividing point of a day.

Timetable column

Time series, with branches indicating the time of birth. One hour spans two hours, so there are twelve hours in a day.

Hours: 23: 00 -65438+ 0: 00 am; Chou Shi: 1 pm-3 am.

Yin Shi: 3 am to 5 am Shi Mao: 5 am to 7 am.

Morning time: 7: 00-9: 00am: 9: 00am-11:00am.

Click on the watch used for daily push to see clearly.

At noon:11:00-13: 00-15: 00.

Application time: 15 pm- 17 pm: 17 pm- 19 pm.

Time:19pm-21pm: 21pm-23pm ......

What do you think about birthdays?

Numerology, also known as four pillars and eight characters, refers to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month, day and hour. When people use heavenly stems and earthly branches to express year, month, day and hour respectively, such as Jiazi Year, Bingwu Month, Xin Chou Day and Renyin Time, etc. There are two words in each column and eight words in four columns, so the four-column forecast is also called "batch eight characters", "quantity eight characters" and four-column forecast. According to heavenly stems and earthly branches's relationship between Yin and Yang and the five elements, we can infer people's good or bad luck. If you understand the mystery, you can approve the eight characters yourself.

There are ten days to work: A, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Ren and Gui.

There are twelve branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai.

The combination of the two can produce sixty units, which are called sixties. The year, month, day and time of birth are combined by heaven and earth, and there are exactly eight words, so it is called birth, also called the four pillars of human beings.

Details are as follows:

First, the chronological column

Chronicle, that is, the year when a person was born, is expressed by stem and branch. Note: The dividing line between last year and next year is based on the intersection time of beginning of spring, not on the first day of the first month. If someone was born at 22: 00 on February 4th, 2000 in the Gregorian calendar, since the lunar calendar handed over to beginning of spring in 2000 is at 20: 32 on February 4th, 2000, this person's chronology is the year of Chen Geng in 2000, not 1999.

Second, the moon column.

Moon column, that is, the festival in which the stems and branches represent the date of birth. Note that the monthly branch is not divided by the first day of each month in the lunar calendar, but by festivals. The festival before the handover is the festival of last month, and the festival after the handover is the festival of next month.

The lunar calendar takes November as the second month, December as the ugly month, and January as silver moon. Followed by Uzuki in February, Chen Yue in March, Mitsuki in April, noon in May, moonless in June, Shen Yue in July, unitary month in August, garrison month in September, and 10 sea month. But unlike December, it is marked by 24 solar terms.

In this way, as long as you know when your birthday is in the lunar calendar, you will know the earthly branch of your birth month.

Third, the sun column

Yang Zhu refers to the day when the representative of the main branch of the lunar calendar was born. Trunk and branch are recorded every 60 days. Due to the different months and leap years, it is necessary to consult the perpetual calendar for daily work and support. In addition, the dividing line between day and day is divided by hours, that is, before eleven o'clock is the hour of the previous day, and after eleven o'clock is the hour of the next day. Don't think that midnight is the dividing point of a day.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches's birthday calculation is very complicated. It was decided by the ancient fortune teller on a certain day, and then pushed down in turn. If you want to know your birthday, you can only look up the perpetual calendar, which is a perpetual calendar compared with the yin-yang calendar. If you don't know when your birthday is in the lunar calendar, you can check the perpetual calendar.

Fourth, the time bar.

The time column represents the time when a person was born. One hour in the lunar calendar spans two hours, so there are twelve hours in a day.

Purple stone: 23: 00 am-1

Ugly time: 1 point-3 am

Yin Shi: 3: 00 to 5: 00 a.m.

Shi Mao: From 5 am to 7 am.

Morning: 7: 00-9: 00 a.m.

Shi Si: 9 am-1 1

Noon: 1 1 point -65438+ 3 am

No time: 13 pm-15 pm

Application time: 15: 00- 17: 00 am

You Shi: in the afternoon 17- 19

Time: evening 19-2 1

Shihai: 2 1 point -23 points

The trunk of life can be derived from the trunk of birthday. In ancient times, a day was divided into twelve hours, corresponding to the twelve branches of the earth, but now two hours are one hour. It is midnight to morning 1, ugly to 3, Yin Shi to 5, noon to 1 13, untimely to 13, and 15. These are the earthly branches of life. Life dryness is calculated from the dryness of birthday.

Fifth, whether the five elements are missing from the date of birth.

Knowing the date of birth, we can infer the five elements. Generally speaking, as long as the five elements in the eight characters are even, life is good. It is not good for the sun to do too little and too much, and it is not good for many people to live with too much sun. Then, in order to judge what the five elements in the eight characters lack, what they have more or what restraint to use, we need to carefully analyze the five elements in birthdates.

......

What do you think about birthdays? What do you think of attributes?

Birthday, or eight characters, is actually another way of saying the four pillars of Zhouyi. Four pillars refer to the time when a person was born, that is, year, month, day and hour. When people use "heavenly stem" and "earthly branch" to represent year, month, day and hour respectively, such as Jiazi Year, Shen Bingyue, Xin Ugly Day and Renyin Time. There are two words in each column and eight characters in four columns, so fortune telling is also called "measuring eight characters" According to the relationship between yin and yang attributes and the five elements of heaven and earth, it is inferred that human body is responsible and blessed. However, what I want to talk about here is not how to "measure eight characters", but how to calculate eight characters.

Four-column eight-character arrangement

Four pillars refer to the year, month, day and time when a person was born. Four-column arrangement refers to finding a person's date of birth. It is mainly divided into four steps.

Chronological column

Chronicle, that is, the year when a person was born, is represented by branches. Note that the dividing line between last year and next year is based on the intersection time of beginning of spring, not on the first day of the first month. For example, if someone was born at 22: 00 on February 4, 2000 in the solar calendar, because the lunar calendar was handed over to beginning of spring in 2000 at 20: 32 on February 4, 2000, his chronological column is 2000.

Moon column

Moon column, that is, a festival in which branches indicate the date of birth. Note that the trunk and branch of Haiyue are not based on the first day of each month in the lunar calendar, but on festivals, which are based on the festivals of the previous month before the handover and the next month after the handover.

How to look at a person's date of birth and what do the five elements belong to?

The five elements of Birthdates mainly show that birthdays are dry, and dry days represent themselves. A and B belong to wood, C and D belong to fire, Wuji belongs to soil, Geng Xin belongs to gold, but not to water.

How to calculate the date and birthday?

In the long and splendid cultural history of our country, our ancestors also invented some theories to explain the movement of the universe and the laws of the world through their own experience. Here, the theory has penetrated into all aspects of natural science and social life, including naming. One of the most important theories is five lines of gossip's theory of Yin and Yang. Although there are not many people named like this now, it is necessary to understand the rich and diverse naming methods of the ancients.

The theory of yin-yang and five elements existed as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. Yin-yang theory contains simple dialectical thinking, which holds that everything has two contradictory aspects, which can be summarized as Yin and Yang respectively. For example, the south of the mountain is yang and the north of the mountain is yin; The north of the water is yang, and the south of the water is yin; The surface of leaves is yang, and the back is yin; Male is yang, female is yin; The sun is Yang, and the moon is also called Taiyin ... Yin and Yang are mutually transformed and endless, and the image graph that shows this law is Taiji diagram. In the Taiji diagram, when Yang is at its peak, Yin has quietly appeared; When the sun was at its peak, it also appeared quietly, and it flourished and declined. This philosophy is still very profound.

The theory of five elements was also summed up by the ancients from their life practice. They believe that everything in the century is composed of five elements: gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which have different forms of expression in different things. For example, five colors: green, red, yellow, white and black, five tones: horn, sign, palace, business and feather, five flavors: sour, bitter, sweet, pungent and salty, five internal organs: liver, heart, spleen, lung and kidney, and five emotions: joy, joy, desire, anger and sorrow. The five elements have the order of generation, mutual generation and mutual control. The order of generations is wood, fire, earth, gold and water. The order of mutual development is wood fire, fire soil, primary gold, golden water and aquatic wood. The order of mutual recognition is: water can overcome fire, fire can overcome gold, Jin Kemu, Muketu and Tuke water.

The combination of Yin-Yang and Five Elements Theory became the theory of ancient people to explain various natural and life phenomena. Divination and fortune telling are activities to predict the future. In ancient times when productivity was low, it was more difficult to grasp personal destiny and want to know more. The theory of yin-yang and five elements is used to explain a person's fate. One of the main methods is to use the date of birth to calculate fate. The so-called birthday is the year, month, day and time of birth expressed by heavenly stems and earthly branches. In the pre-Qin period, people only used heavenly stems and earthly branches to remember the days. Later, heavenly stems and earthly branches could be used to remember the days, months and days. There are ten heavenly ways: A, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Man and Ghost. There are twelve branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. The combination of the two can produce sixty units, which are called sixties. The year, month, day and time of birth are combined by heaven and earth, and there are just eight words, so it is called birth, and the fortuneteller also calls it the four pillars of human beings. There are also five elements in a birthday. In the sky, A and B belong to wood, C and D belong to fire, E and E belong to soil, G and Xin belong to gold, and Ren and Gui belong to water. Among the twelve earthly branches, Yin and Mao belong to wood, four or five belong to fire, Shen and You belong to gold, Hai and Zi belong to water, Chen, Shu and Ugly, but they don't belong to earth. In this way, according to the date of birth, you can calculate what is missing in your life. The ancients believed that fate would flourish only if the five elements were possessed.

It is not easy for modern people to judge their date of birth, because most people remember that their birthday is in the solar calendar, that is, the Gregorian calendar. So here is how to calculate the date of birth from the birthday of the solar calendar.

Heavenly stems and earthly branches, who was born in, said it was best to find. Its year is the year of the lunar calendar, from the first day to New Year's Eve. Just check the calendar. If you don't have the calendar of that year, you can reverse it according to this year's calendar. After knowing heavenly stems and earthly branches this year, you can refer to the 60-year-old table in the second section of Chapter 2 of this book, and then push it backwards in turn. For example, New Year's Eve from 1998 to 1999 is the year of Wuyin, so it can be inferred that 1997 is the year of Ding Chou, 1996 is the year of C Zi, 1995 is the year of B Hai, and 1994 is the year of A.

It is not difficult to calculate the birth month of the main branch. The lunar calendar takes November as the second month, December as the ugly month, and January as silver moon. Followed by Uzuki in February, Chen Yue in March, Mitsuki in April, noon in May, moonless in June, Shen Yue in July, unitary month in August, garrison month in September, and 10 sea month. But unlike December, it is marked by 24 solar terms. Every year from the day of beginning of spring to the day of surprise, it is silver moon in 1 month, Uzuki from surprise to Qingming in February, Chen Yue from Qingming to long summer in March, Mitsuki from long summer to awning in April, and from awning to light summer in May afternoon. ......
