Harmony of Ancient Chinese Astronomical Wisdom

The beginning and the end. After three repeats, one obtains the Jiazi. The Law of Yin and Yang, Nine and Six, derives from the hexagrams. Thus, the Yellow Bell chronicles the essence of the cosmic energy. Law, the principle, all are taken from it.”

This is the same as what Deng Ping governed. Therefore, they all observed the new stars and observed the movements of the sun and moon, further calculating and deducing using methods like Hong and Ping. According to the method, the day of the first month, the twenty-ninth day, and eighty-one fractions of the day is forty-three of the sun and moon. Firstly, use half a day, called the solar calendar; do not use it, called the lunar calendar. The so-called solar calendar, the first new moon is born; the lunar calendar, the new moon is born after the first day. Ping said: “Both the solar and lunar calendars start with the birth of the moon, which is convenient for the morning of the princes, kings, and ministers.” Therefore, a decree was issued to use the 81-minute calendar made by Deng Ping, and to abolish the distant and neglected 17 families, and to resume the examination of the calendar. The eunuch Chunyu Lingqu covered the “Tai Chu Li” dim, moon, string, and hope, all the most dense, the sun and moon are like jade, and the five stars are like pearls. Lingqu submitted a memorial, so he used Deng Ping’s calendar and made Ping the Tai Shi Cheng. Twenty-seven years later, in the third year of Yuan Feng, the Tai Shi Zhang Shou Wang submitted a book saying: “The calendar is the great record of heaven and earth, and it is what the Lord has done. It has been used since the first year of the Han Dynasty. Now that Yin and Yang are not adjusted, it is appropriate to change the calendar.” The edict was handed down to the main calendar, Xian Yu Wang Man asked questions, Shou Wang did not accept. Wang asked to mix 20 people including Ma Guang, the chief agricultural officer of the Great Ruler, to join the sun, moon, dim, new moon, string, hope, eight festival, 24 seasons, and collate the conditions of various calendars. It was reported that it was feasible. The edict and the prime minister, the imperial historian, the great general, and the right general historian each had one person mixed with the Shulin Clear Platform, and the density of all calendars was eleven families. The winter solstice in the third year of Yuan Feng began on the morning of the first day of the first day, and each had a session. Wang’s lesson is far away. According to the first year of Han Dynasty, Wang Shou Wang said: “It is not the Han calendar, the first year of the world, it is not appropriate to say, disrespectful. There is a decree not to accuse. It will be spent again for six years. The first “Tai Chu Li” in Xu Wan, Mo, and Chang’an, Xu Yu’s governance “Tai Chu Li” is also the first. The longevity and waiters Li Xing govern the calendar of the Yellow Emperor, and they are all sparse, and they also say that the Yellow Emperor’s Yuan Feng is more than 6,000 years old. The prime minister’s charge, Bao, Chang’an’s single An Guo, and An Ling’s cup of reproduction say that the Yellow Emperor’s succession to Yuan Feng is 3,629 years old, and it does not match Shou Wang. Shou Wang also moved “Emperor’s Record”, Shun, Yu, years are not compatible with human years. Shou Wang said that the transformation has increased the emperor’s agent, and the girl of Li Shan is also an emperor, between Yin and Zhou, all do not match the classics. Shou Wang Li is also the calendar of the Tai Shi official “Yin calendar”. Shou Wang said how to get the five family calendars, and also how to make the “Tai Chu Li” deficit four parts of the three days, and the small excess of 75 parts, so the Yin and Yang are not adjusted, called the chaotic world. He was sentenced to death by the officials of Shou Wang, the ancient Confucian scholar, wearing Confucian clothes, reciting the words of the unknown, making a coat saying that he wanted to disturb the system, and not talking. Reportable. Shou Wang’s lesson, comparing three years, never accepted. Again accused of death, and then pardoned and not accused, and then did not change, defamation was more serious, and finally the following officials. Therefore, the original verification is in the sky, since the first year of Han Dynasty, the Yuan Feng Dynasty has been 36 years old, and the right and wrong are determined. In the era of Xiaocheng, Liu Xiang summed up the six calendars, listed the right and wrong, and wrote “Five Records”. Towards Zi Xin to explore its micro, made “San Tong Li” and “Pu” to explain “Spring and Autumn”, push the law secret, so the matter was described. The spring and autumn calendar is the time, and it is time to take people’s affairs. It is said that “the people receive the middle of the sky and the earth to live, so-called life. Therefore, there are rituals, emotions, and actions of the authority and responsibility. The capable people are fed to them. Those who cannot do it, they get failure. Therefore, the history of the twelve public officials for the 242 years of the calendar, and the authority and responsibility of the Yin and Yang, to see and build the instrument. So the spring was in the spring, all things are alive. In the autumn, all things are complete. Therefore, the event is in the middle of the event, the ritual is taken, and the number of the calendar is reduced to the number of the first. Therefore, the “Yi” gold, fire phase of the hexagram said “Tang, Wu revolution, in line with the day and respond to the people,” and said “The system is clear,” so it is for the people’s road. After the week, the decline, the Zhou Dynasty, the child, the child, the day, the wrong, the law, the music, the so-called times, all follow out also. That’s why “Easy” gold, “Five”, the number of common. Heaven has six qualities and reduces five flavors. The five or six qualities of the Middle Kingdom, which people receive from the east, the meaning of the number. The heavens have six, the fall of five, the five states to come together, each has a connection. Heaven has 25, the number is 30, there are 55 years of the heavens and the earth, this is the reason for the changes and actions of ghosts and gods. And the number of 19, “Yi” in the end, therefore, is a chaotic method. Can be read, two numbers, three and three, and then for the rest of the odd 19, and the use of another, because of the change in the moon, to achieve good and bad. Therefore, “Yi” said “Heaven, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Heaven, five, earth, five, five positions to get and all have. Heaven, 25, earth, 30, a total of 55 heavens, the reason for the spirit also. At the end of the number, “Yi” has no way to change, therefore it is said that “extra”. It is the heaven of the number of days and the number of 25 and the number of the earth 30.
