The Gan Zhi calendar uses solar terms to divide the months. Accordingly, the Gregorian calendar year ends at 4 and 9, and the month between Waking Insects and Tomb sweeping Day is Ding Mao month.
The Gan Zhi Ji Yue is based on the solar terms and months, not theNew MoonBased on.Because the lunar calendar is a combination of yin and yang, the change rule of the moon phase is a month's time, and there is no "year" time."Year" is based on the periodic movement of the earth around the sun.The "year" in the lunar calendar can be adapted to the actual "year" in time by setting a leap month, so the "year" in the lunar calendar only has calendar features, not objective features.
