Name according to time
1. Year Column
Compare the birth date with the "Perpetual Calendar" to see which year the date is in, that is, the year The stems and branches serve as the pillars of the year, but it should be noted that the beginning of the year must strictly take the beginning of spring as the starting point, rather than the usual first day of the first lunar month or New Year's Day of the Gregorian calendar as the beginning of the year. For example, if a person was born on February 5, 1994, and the perpetual calendar shows that it is the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month in the Guiyou year, but the Beginning of Spring falls on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month in the Guiyou year, then the year column will be It should be Jiaxu instead of Guiyou. In the same way, if someone was born on the twelfth day of the first lunar month in the Guiyou year, and after checking the perpetual calendar, it is found that the beginning of spring in the Guiyou year falls on the thirteenth o'clock of the first lunar month, then his year column should be counted as the Renshen year and not the Guiyou year, and so on.
The Nian Pillar is the root of the four pillars and occupies a very important position among the pillars. For example, fortune books often say that someone is born with the water of a big stream, and someone is born with the thunderbolt of fire. They all refer to the recipient of the Nian Pillar. In terms of sound properties.
2. Starting the Moon Pillar
The method of raising the Moon Pillar is to use the solar term as the junction. Every time a solar term is crossed (note that it is a solar term and not a middle Qi), the moon pillar is alternated. That is, according to the orbit of the sun's celestial meridian, a tropical year is divided into twelve points, which are used to mark the changes in the four seasons of cold and heat, the profit and loss of the five elements, and the prosperity and sorrow of the ten gods. They are divided into one character of the month order, so they are four pillars outline.
In the same year, the month is also strictly based on the alternation of solar terms, regardless of whether it is a leap in the lunar calendar or the solar calendar. Referring to the comparison table of solar terms and stems and branches in the "Basic Knowledge" chapter, it can be seen that the period from the Beginning of Spring to the Jingzhe is the Yin month, and the period from the Jingzhe to the Qingming Festival is the Mao month, etc. For example, if someone was born on March 3, 1993, which is the eleventh day of the second month of the lunar calendar, observe The Perpetual Calendar knows that February 11th is between Beginning of Spring and Jingzhe, so it is regarded as the Yin month. Knowing the earthly branches of the moon pillar, it can then calculate the stem of the month by comparing it with the following "Starting Month of the Year of the Five Tigers", as shown in the above example of comparing the Yin month In the middle year of the table, the stem of the year is found to be Jia, that is, the moon pillar is Jiayin, and the rest of the year is imitated.

The lunar branches in order are Yin Mao Chen Si Wu Wei Shen You Xu Hai Zichou
The year stem is Jia Ji Bing Yin Ding Mao Wu Chen Ji Si Geng Wu Xin Wei Ren Shen Gui You Jia Xu Yi Hai Bing Zi Ding Chou
The year stem is Yi Geng Wu Yin Ji Mao Geng Chen Xin Si Ren Wu Gui Wei Jia Shen Yi You Bing Xu Ding Hai Wu Zi Ji Chou
The year stem is Bing Xin Geng Yin Mao Ren Chen Gui Si Jia Wu Yi Wei Bing Shen Ding You Wu Wu Xu Ji Hai Geng Zi Xin Chou
The year stem is Ding Ren Ren Yin Guimao Jia Chen Yi Si Bing Wu Ding Wei Wu Shen Ji You Geng Xu Xin Hai Ren Zi Guichou
The year stem is Wu Gui Jia Yin Yi Mao Bing Chen Ding Si Wu Wu Ji Wei Geng Shen You Xin You Ren Xu Gui Hai Jiazi Yi Chou
3. Sunrise Pillar
The alternation of day and night is formed by the rotation of the earth. In numerology, the beginning of the midnight hour is the beginning of a new day. So how is the midnight hour determined? , in the astronomical calendar, when the sun passes through a certain above-ground noon, it is noon, and when the sun passes through a certain underground noon (the so-called lower noon means the sun passes through the upper noon of the opposite hemisphere), it is positon. The so-called "zheng" is It means the middle point of Zi hour. According to the ancient calendar, one hour is two hours. Then the beginning of Zi hour is one hour before Zi hour. When converted to the current time, that is, 23:00 local time in a certain area is the beginning of Zi hour. (called the First Son's Hour in the calendar) is the beginning of a new day in that place.
But in modern times, influenced by the Western calendar, some numerologists have a new view on the starting and ending points of the sun pillar, believing that the new day does not start from the first son, but from the positive son. For example, Mr. Yuan Shushan, a famous modern numerologist, discussed this issue in his famous work "Exploring the Origin of Numerology". Yuan believed that after the first son hour and before the righteous son hour of the night, the sun pillar is still calculated according to the day. The hour column is counted as the sub-hour of the next day (because the hour has been handed over). Yuan's theory has a great influence in modern times, and even now, some numerologists still follow it.
But we have read through ancient books, not only in the Four Pillars of Numerology, but also in all the magical books such as Qimen, Bagua, Zihui, Liuren, etc., but we can't find any example of such an algorithm. , it can be seen that the above point of view is only a discussion and not a final conclusion. Today's forecasting scholar, Shaw Wei-Fahrenhe, known as the "Dean of Yi", refuted this view in his book "Four Pillars of Forecasting". Shaw said: "This statement is not very reasonable, and it is unprecedented. The examples can be used, so we ignore the distinction, and have been tested by various experts. Whenever it passes 23 o'clock in the night (that is, the hour of the first child), the stems and branches of the next day are calculated and the sun pillar is calculated. "So we can confirm that the beginning of each day is indeed correct. The time of the first son is used as the dividing line. Whenever the time of the first son passes, it is counted as a new day. Judging by this standard, it can be said to be correct.
Nowadays, it is unfair to regard 23:00 pm Beijing time as the first day of the night, which is the beginning of the day, because modern clock timekeeping is based on a specific longitude line area. For example, Beijing is located in the East Eighth Route. The time zone is based on 120 degrees east longitude as the standard time zone. The so-called 23 o'clock Beijing time is actually the first son time of 120 degrees east longitude. In fact, many areas in China deviate far from the 120-degree line, and some even exceed several time zones. In this case, how can we consistently use Beijing time as the standard? Here we introduce mean solar time and true solar time The concept of time is measured based on the angle of the location relative to the sun, so as not to be distorted. More details will be given later in the column section.
Since the handover between day and night is formed by the rotation of the earth, it can be seen that the beginning of each day is not consistent globally, but gradually moves from east to west in units of longitude lines. We can imagine , when the sun is shining brightly at noon in Beijing, it is a brightly lit night in New York in the Western Hemisphere, so how should the sun pillars of these two places be calculated? This problem is actually a date intersection problem. In the modern calendar, it is stipulated that the 180 degrees east longitude is the international date change line, that is, every new date starts from the 180 degrees east longitude. The 180 degrees east longitude is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean east of China, and is 4 time zones different from Beijing. , that is to say, on each date, it starts from the 180-degree east longitude, gradually moves westward, and lands on the Chinese mainland on the west coast of the Pacific about 4 hours later, and then passes over the entire Asian continent, Europe, and North America. After circling the earth once, it returns to the 180-degree east longitude, and a new date begins.
Judging from the moving direction of the date boundary line, the handover of the stems and branches of each day is roughly based on China first, and then gradually hand over the date stems and branches of East Asian countries, Europe and the United States. This order seems to be consistent with the ancients The concept of the so-called "Sunrise Fusang" is quite consistent. This is a very lucky coincidence. Maybe we can no longer spend energy to convert dates. When calculating the sun column, we only need to follow the Gregorian calendar date (that is, the international date line standard ) can be calculated. Of course, the starting and ending points of dates are still a question that can be discussed and require in-depth research by contemporary numerologists. Until a new standard that can be trusted is introduced, it will not be a big mistake for us to use international standard dates, not to mention that these complicated problems are negligible for China.
There is no fixed correspondence between the earth's rotation and the earth's revolution (tropical year), so the arrangement of the year pillar, the month pillar and the day pillar is completely random. The same day pillar, the year of birth If the moon is different, then the relationship between sorrow and prosperity, gain and loss, and control must also be different, thus forming a variety of structures and interests. From this, it can also be seen that it makes sense for the ancients to take the sun pillar as the primordial spirit.
If you want to calculate the stems and branches of the daily pillar, although it is not impossible, it is very tedious and boring. The easiest way is to check the perpetual calendar. For example, if someone was born on June 1, 1994, you can check the perpetual calendar to know the stems and branches of that day. It is Wuwu, that is, the sun pillar is Wuwu.
4. The Hour Pillar
The division of hours is just like the division of months into the year. It just divides a day into twelve equal stages. A day and night count 24 hours, then one Hours add up to 2 hours. The principle is that the sun passes above the midheaven as noon, and the sun passes through the midheaven of the other hemisphere (i.e., the lower midheaven) as azimuth, and is divided into fine divisions. The first son hour is calculated from 23:00 p.m. (23:00 p.m., the same below) to midnight, which is the righteous son hour. It will be the righteous son hour at 1:00 a.m. the next day, and then it will be the yin hour at 3 a.m. Then at 5 o'clock in the morning, it turns into Mao hour... then at 21 o'clock in the evening, it turns into Hai hour, and at 23 o'clock at night, it turns into the next sub-hour, and so on.
Here arises a problem unique to modern people. In the past, when ancient people judged fate, they always took the natural time of the sun, moon and stars as the criterion. In modern society, science and technology are developed, and we have very precise timekeeping tools. Various types of mechanical, electronic, and quartz clocks provide convenience to modern people. Using these tools to time time should be more accurate than the ancient methods of setting time, but among them The principle must be clarified, otherwise it will be a mistake.
The time system practiced today was formulated by the International Astronomical Congress held in Greenwich, England, in 1884. The meridian at Greenwich is called the prime meridian, and the time along the prime meridian is called universal standard time. With the Prime Line as the center, a time zone is set every 15 degrees, which is called local time. Of course, these are things that the ancient philosophers of our country could not know, but today's people have abandoned the ancient method of setting time and use the modern time system as the standard. Taking our country as an example, they basically use Beijing time as the standard and the hour as the standard. For the alternation of time, careful inspection shows that even in the Beijing area, this method of inference is very problematic.
Beijing is located in the East Eighth District, and the East Eighth District was based on the longitude 120 degrees east longitude, including an area 7.5 degrees east and west of the longitude 120 degrees. In fact, Beijing is located at 116.46 degrees east longitude, and There is still an error of 14.1 minutes at 120 degrees east longitude. For example, at 23:06 Beijing time (i.e. East Eighth District time) at night, the actual mean solar time in Beijing is still 22:51.54 (23:53) 54 seconds), by analogy, if it is far in the southwest of Chengdu, the actual mean solar time at this moment is 10:50.18 in the first half of the night, which is still at the end of the first half of the night, the difference is even greater.
