There are 384 days in the year of the rooster in the lunar calendar, 29 days more than in the year of the monkey
According to Shi Zhicheng, a member of the Chinese Astronomical Society and director of Tianjin astronomical society, the Chinese lunar calendar stipulates that there are 354 or 355 days in total for the first 12 months of the year, which is about 11 days less than that of a return year, and one month less after three years. For a long time, there will be a strange phenomenon of disordered timing and timing. In order to solve this problem, we use the method of adding "leap month".

The current method of adding leap in the lunar calendar is "seven leap in 19 years". Every two to three years, one month must be added. The added month is called "leap month". As a result, the leap year of the lunar calendar has 13 months.
Every ordinary lunar month must have a solar term and a medium atmosphere. The "leap month" is usually the month with only solar terms but no middle air, which is exactly the case in June of the year of the rooster. In the same month, there is only the solar term of "autumn start" on June 16, while Zhongqi "heat treatment" falls on the second day of the next month. There is a leap June in the year of the rooster, so the year of the rooster is 384 days in total. (this article is exclusively compiled by WYH, editor of sihai.com.
