Chinese Agricultural Calendar of my Grand Father: 24 solar terms in 4 earth seasons: Year 2015In memorial of my maternal grand father, a part of my great memory of my childrenth. In effect, he was the studied of the countryside town of about 3 000 souls on the chinese bord of the pacific ocean in the province of Zhejiang in China. Before each chinese new year, he calligraphed this kind of calendar for the people of the whole village, even those of the villages around, people thinking abount their future rice harvest. He was so famous of the village and invited by many families for thanks of this knowledge of the Chinese Calendar (Calendar of 10 000 years: 万年历) during the chinese spring festivals, I accompanyed him to share those delicious meats. Dear Maternal Grand Father, you should be very proud of that your little grand-son of that time inheritates a part of your works just as you wished. Thanks my maternal grand father on the sky... In the calendar of my Grand Father, there are two solar season feasts on each lunar month. You could also Change the Straw Paper for the calligraphy. Year in the Chinese Lunar CalendarA Chinese Year (Suì, 岁) is composed of 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, and sub-divised in 24 Chinese Feasts, equivalent to the 24 Chinese Solar Terms of a Chinese Year. The major solar terms Zhōngqì (中气) are given in boldface, while the minor solar terms Jiéqì (节气) are given in lightface.As these solar terms are only events of the Sun, no lunar event related feasts, such as Chinese New Year which is the day of the first new Moon (day 1 of month 1 of a Chinese lunar year), Dragon Feast (day 5 of month 5 of a Chinese lunar year), are in the list. Since the creation of the People's Republic of China on October 1st 1949 by the President MAO Zedong (Mao Tsetong), China has officially adopted the Gregorian calendar, or the solar calendar for the administration purpose. Nevertheless, the Chinese People keep their traditional feasts fixed on the dates of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. These feasts are very vivid today such as the Spring Festivities, symbol of the arrival of the Chinese New Year. The Spring Festival takes place always on the first day of the first month on the Chinese Lunar Calendar. But the date on the solar calendar varies with the year. Il is always on January or February of the current year on the solar calendar, but its date can be obtained only by a very complex calculation of the dual movement of the Earth and of the Moon. In the Ancient Chinese History of 24 dynasties, the time has neither beginning, nor ending. Each dynasty hopes an infinite reign on time and each emperor starts counting by his first year of reign as year 1. For example, the Emperor KangXi of the Qing Dynasty counts his reign by KangXi year 1, KangXi year 2, KangXi year 3, ... Nowadays, the Chinese have officially the Gregorian year. This is to say, the year 2010 for this year. But as the Yellow Emperor (Huangdi) is considered as the Creator of the Chinese Nation, the population count also as Huangdi 4708 for this year. To know more about chinese feasts of the 4 seasons related to the chinese calendar, the chinese lunar calendar of my grand father would be a precious help. |
