亥、子水，寅、卯木，巳、午火，申、酉金，辰、戌、丑、未土。
宫∶土（申也，土为中，为建极）。
商∶金（强也，象金性之坚强）。
角∶木（触也，阳气触动而生）。
征∶火（止也，物盛则止也）。

黄钟八十一弦，太簇七十六数，姑洗六十四数，林钟五十四数，南吕四十八数。
春∶角木；夏∶征火；长夏∶宫土；秋∶商金；冬∶羽水。
一、大运∶以本年天干化气为主。
一、主运∶春角木，夏征火，长夏宫土，秋商金，冬羽水。甲乙丙壬癸五年从太角起，太生少，少生太，
起于角；丁戊己庚辛五年从少角起，少生太，太生少，终于羽。
一、客运∶从中运起，初运太生少，少生太，每运管七十三日半，与主运俱同自大寒日始。
甲年化阳土，属太宫，逆推前生太宫者少征，生少征者太角，故甲年起太角。
乙年化阴金，属少商，上推前生少商者太宫，生太宫者少征，生少征者太角，故乙年起太角。
丙年化阳水，为太羽，推前生太羽者是少商，生少商者是太宫，生太宫者少征，生少征者太角，故丙年初
运太角。
丁年化阴木，属少角，即从少角起初运，其年客运尽同。
戊年化阳火，属太征，推前生太征者是少角，故戊年起少角。
己年化阴土，为少宫，推前生少宫者是太征，生太征者少角，故己年起少角。
庚年化阳金，属太商，推前生太商者是少宫，生少宫者太征，生太征者少角，故庚年起少角为初运。
辛年化阴水，为少羽，上推前生少羽者太商，生太商者少宫，生少宫者太征，生太征者少角，故辛年起少
角。
壬年化阳木，属太角，即起太角为初运，其年客运尽同。
癸年化阴火，属少征，生少征者是太角，故癸年起太角。

Jia and Ji transform into Earth; Yi and Geng transform into Metal; Bing and Xin transform into Water; Ding and Ren transform into Wood; Wu and Gui transform into Fire.
Hai and Zi belong to Water; Yin and Mao belong to Wood; Si and Wu belong to Fire; Shen and You belong to Metal; Chen, Xu, Chou, and Wei belong to Earth.
Gong (Palace): Corresponds to Earth ("Gong" means center; Earth resides in the central position, serving as the foundation for establishing the supreme standard).
Shang (Market): Corresponds to Metal ("Shang" means strong, symbolizing the firmness and strength of metal properties).
Jue (Horn): Corresponds to Wood ("Jue" means touch; Yang Qi stirs and generates life).
Zhi (Chariot): Corresponds to Fire ("Zhi" means stop; when things reach their peak, they stop).
Yu (Feather): Corresponds to Water ("Yu" means comfort/relaxation; Yang Qi returns, and all things expand).
Yang is termed "Tai" (Grand), and Yin is termed "Shao" (Minor).
The Huangzhong (Yellow Bell) pitch pipe has 81 strings; the Taicu (Great Cluster) pitch pipe has 76 units; the Guxian (Cleansing Pitch) pitch pipe has 64 units; the Linzhong (Forest Bell) pitch pipe has 54 strings; the Nanlü (Southern Rhythm) pitch pipe has 48 strings.
Spring: Jue Wood; Summer: Zhi Fire; Late Summer: Gong Earth; Autumn: Shang Metal; Winter: Yu Water.
1. Great Movement (Da Yun): Primarily determined by the transformed Qi of the Heavenly Stem of the current year.
2. Principal Movement (Zhu Yun): Spring is Jue Wood, Summer is Zhi Fire, Late Summer is Gong Earth, Autumn is Shang Metal, Winter is Yu Water. For the five years of Jia, Yi, Bing, Ren, and Gui, the sequence starts with Tai Jue (Grand Horn); Tai generates Shao, and Shao generates Tai, beginning with Jue. For the five years of Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, and Xin, the sequence starts with Shao Jue (Minor Horn); Shao generates Tai, and Tai generates Shao, ending with Yu.
3. Guest Movement (Ke Yun): Begins from the Central Movement (Zhong Yun). The initial movement follows the pattern where Tai generates Shao, and Shao generates Tai. Each movement governs 73.5 days, starting from the Day of Great Cold (Da Han), identical to the Principal Movement.
In a Jia year, transforming into Yang Earth, belonging to Tai Gong (Grand Palace), reversing the generation cycle, the element generating Tai Gong is Shao Zhi (Minor Chariot), and the element generating Shao Zhi is Tai Jue. Thus, the Jia year begins with Tai Jue.
In a Yi year, transforming into Yin Metal, belonging to Shao Shang (Minor Market), looking upward, the element generating Shao Shang is Tai Gong, the element generating Tai Gong is Shao Zhi, and the element generating Shao Zhi is Tai Jue. Thus, the Yi year begins with Tai Jue.
In a Bing year, transforming into Yang Water, belonging to Tai Yu (Grand Feather), tracing back, the element generating Tai Yu is Shao Shang, the element generating Shao Shang is Tai Gong, the element generating Tai Gong is Shao Zhi, and the element generating Shao Zhi is Tai Jue. Thus, the initial movement of the Bing year is Tai Jue.
In a Ding year, transforming into Yin Wood, belonging to Shao Jue (Minor Horn), the initial movement starts directly from Shao Jue, and the Guest Movements for that year are entirely consistent with this starting point.
In a Wu year, transforming into Yang Fire, belonging to Tai Zhi (Grand Chariot), tracing back, the element generating Tai Zhi is Shao Jue. Thus, the Wu year begins with Shao Jue.
In a Ji year, transforming into Yin Earth, belonging to Shao Gong (Minor Palace), tracing back, the element generating Shao Gong is Tai Zhi, and the element generating Tai Zhi is Shao Jue. Thus, the Ji year begins with Shao Jue.
In a Geng year, transforming into Yang Metal, belonging to Tai Shang (Grand Market), tracing back, the element generating Tai Shang is Shao Gong, the element generating Shao Gong is Tai Zhi, and the element generating Tai Zhi is Shao Jue. Thus, the Geng year begins with Shao Jue as the initial movement.
In a Xin year, transforming into Yin Water, belonging to Shao Yu (Minor Feather), looking upward, the element generating Shao Yu is Tai Shang, the element generating Tai Shang is Shao Gong, the element generating Shao Gong is Tai Zhi, and the element generating Tai Zhi is Shao Jue. Thus, the Xin year begins with Shao Jue.
In a Ren year, transforming into Yang Wood, belonging to Tai Jue (Grand Horn), it starts with Tai Jue as the initial movement, and the Guest Movements for that year are entirely consistent with this.
In a Gui year, transforming into Yin Fire, belonging to Shao Zhi (Minor Chariot), the element generating Shao Zhi is Tai Jue. Thus, the Gui year begins with Tai Jue.
