Why are all good days called "auspicious days"?
Since ancient times, people always like to choose an auspicious day for marriage, sacrifice, funeral, opening business, building houses and so on. And pray for good luck to avoid evil, that is, choose a "auspicious day" to deal with. There are also records in ancient books, such as the fourth fold of the Yuan Dynasty's anonymous "Lianhuan Ji": "Today, the ecliptic is auspicious, and the Manchu ministers are all in Yintaimen." The 18th lecture of Biography of Heroes of Children: "Today is an auspicious day. Before opening the museum, please ask a boy to bring my half-shouldered luggage in. " So, why is a good day when everything goes well called "auspicious day"? The ecliptic is an astronomical term, which refers to the orbit formed by the earth's rotation around the sun, and the relative motion between the sun and the earth is observed from the earth. For example, "Tian Han Wen Zhi" records: "There is a middle way in the day and nine lines in the month. The middle road, the ecliptic, is the light road. " It means that the sun runs in the middle way and the moon has nine orbits. The middle path is the ecliptic, also known as the light path. In the Song Dynasty, the book Meng Qian Bi Tan Xiang Shu Er also included: "The cause of the sun is called the ecliptic." It means that the way the sun moves is called the ecliptic. In the ancient traditional calendar, there were days recorded in the branches. In addition, some astrologers will take 12 places as their branches, with 12 duty gods with different names, and take the underworld day and the zodiac as their masters, and the gangsters as their masters. On the twelfth day, the twelve gods took turns in turn and went round and round. For example, Ziri Qinglong, Ugly Tang Ming, Yinri Tianxun, Maori Suzaku, Chenri Jingui, Siri Tiande, Wubaihu, Weiri Yutang, Shenri Tianlong, Youri Xuanwu, Rising Sun Siming and Rihai Gouchen. The twelve gods have different masters, and there are also good and bad points. When the six gods (Qinglong (Zi), (Ugly), Jingui (Chen), Tiande (Si), Yutang (Wei) and Siming (Xu) are on duty, it is an auspicious day and everything goes well, so people often say "auspicious day" and "auspicious day". Qinglong is an auspicious beast handed down from God and a symbol of good luck. Tang Ming is a place where ancient emperors held ceremonies and a symbol of power. The golden chamber is a golden cabinet, which usually contains important cultural relics and documents, and is a rare symbol; Tiande is a symbol of the grace of heaven's education; Yutang is a palace, the residence of immortals, and the names of stars and gods are auspicious symbols. On the other hand, if Six Gods, Heavenly Punishment (Yin), Suzaku (Mao), White Tiger (Noon), Tianlong (Shen), Xuanwu (You) and Gouchen (Hai) are on duty, it will be a bad day, and everything will be unfavorable, so it is not suitable to hold any major activities, which is called "Mafia Day" and "Mafia Day". Mafia was originally one of the orbits of the sun and the moon. The ancients believed that the sun and the moon had nine orbits, namely the ecliptic, the green road, the equator, the white road and the underworld. In addition, the ancient yin and yang scholars regarded the underworld as an evil spirit and a symbol of bad luck. For example, Xie's Five Miscellaneous Matters was uploaded by Tianbu II in the Ming Dynasty: "In one day, there are evil spirits such as white tiger, black slayer, knife anvil, skyfire, heavy mourning, thief, blood branch, blood taboo, return taboo and underworld." The ancients liked to pay attention to time, place and people, all of which were ready to achieve great things. Choose the right "auspicious day", then you can occupy the most favorable opportunity of "the right time"
