Everyone has his own birthday. Birthday refers to everyone's date of birth. However, because China has two calendars: lunar calendar and Gregorian calendar, some people are used to Lunar birthday and some people are used to Gregorian birthday. Usually the older generation like to celebrate the Lunar birthday, while today's young people like to celebrate the Gregorian birthday. So what's the difference between Lunar birthday and Gregorian birthday? Is it better to celebrate Lunar birthday or Gregorian birthday? Let's take a look at this article.
1、 Calendar
The date of birth is recorded in the lunar calendar or the Gregorian calendar, as long as you know which calendar it is. The eight character birthday depends on the time of the lunar calendar and the constellation depends on the time of the Gregorian calendar. The two are very different and can't be mistaken. However, whether it is the birth date prediction or constellation prediction, as long as you know your birth date and time, and explain that this is the lunar or Gregorian calendar. After that, check the time of the year through the perpetual calendar, and you can determine your birthday character or constellation as soon as you convert. This is naturally easy for professionals. Now the popularity of the network also makes this seemingly professional problem, which can be completed directly online through some software.
2、 The Gregorian calendar is more accurate
The Gregorian calendar has twelve months every year, and there is no leap month; The lunar calendar has leap months, so in addition to the 12 months of a year in general years, there will be 13 months in three years every eight years. In this case, according to the lunar calendar, there is actually a difference of several days between the previous year and the next year. Especially for people born in leap month, should they celebrate their Lunar birthday only in the leap month year or the month before the leap month? It is a very tangled problem. For example, should people born on the first day of leap April wait until leap April? Or do you celebrate your birthday on the first day of April every year? This year is April 1, next year is April 1, and every year after that is April 1, so there is no such problem.
3、 Which on earth
It can be determined according to your preference. Some people may say, in order to be accurate, should we celebrate the Gregorian birthday? Personally, I don't think it's too deliberate. Birthday is to commemorate the birth of the mother and celebrate the birth of the child. This meaning will not change because the days are lunar or Gregorian. Therefore, it is not necessary to have a Gregorian or lunar calendar for birthday. Especially for older people, they are used to celebrating lunar birthdays, and there is no need to celebrate Gregorian birthdays.
4、 Which birthdays can't be celebrated?
1. We can celebrate our children's birthdays from birth to 16.
2. From 17 to 59, you can celebrate your birthday, but you should celebrate your birthday according to local customs. For example, the 10th birthday is usually one year ahead of schedule, for example, the 30th birthday is usually completed at the age of 29; Moreover, many places' have three but four ', that is, they can have their thirtieth birthday, but they can't have their fortieth birthday.
3. When people reach the age of 60, they are already reincarnated once in their 60s. Therefore, from the age of 60 to the age of 80, they can't celebrate their birthday with great fanfare. In the past, people and Neo Confucianism believed that once a person reached the age of 60, he could not celebrate his birthday because he was afraid to 'remind' Lord Yan to 'tick off' the birthday person early.
4. When people reach the age of 80, they can celebrate their birthday, and they can celebrate their birthday with great fanfare. Even if they publish newspaper to celebrate their birthday, it doesn't matter, because it's already a 'God' rather than a person.
