Book of Perpetual Calendar. (Photo: songhuong.com) Recently there is information about the calendar data are different, so where is the real cause? According to Mr. Tran Tien Binh, the State Calendar, these misleading data are directly or indirectly derived from perpetual calendar books that are present in many markets, such as pragmatic perpetual calendars, ten thousand calendars. school yearbook, Calendar and perpetual calendar . The perpetual calendars are all books that print translation data from the Chinese calendar and while promoting these books, the authorities have not informed Full news for readers to know that the Vietnamese calendar is different from the Chinese calendar! Not only did this year 2006 arise the difference between the two calendars, which always happens almost every year. So there is nothing unusual this year as before or after as long as consumers use perpetual calendars.

Vietnamese calendar is different from Chinese calendar

The Yin-Yang Calendar of Vietnam (often called Lunar Calendar) is built on the basis of the Government's decisions on time zone and lunar calendar used in Vietnam. Although the Vietnamese calendar and the Chinese calendar are calculated based on the same rule, the difference in the hour smell (the official Chinese time is 8 hours before Vietnam, 1 hour) has made the two countries' schedules more popular. different in date, gas, Lunar New Year .

For example, the two countries' schedules all take the No Moon Day (Soc's day) as the first day of the month (the first day of the Lunar New Year), like the recent Moonless day that occurred at 23:05 05 (Vietnam time) on June 25, 2006, due to So the calendar in Vietnam on June 25, 2006 is June 1, Binh Tuat. However, Beijing time this time was 0:05 am on June 26, 2006 and on June 26, 2006, was June 1, Bo Tuat according to the Chinese calendar.

Different first days will lead to a full month difference between the two calendars. Since the leap month is calculated based on the comparison between the Soc periods and the time of the transition, when these two times are different, there will be a leap month between the two different calendars, like in 1984 the Vietnamese calendar has no months. But the Chinese calendar is back in October.

If you want to calculate lunar calendar, you have to program based on complex astronomical models and not easily recite such as solar calendar or some other calendar types. Therefore publishers have chosen a simple method of translating straight from the Chinese calendar and this is contrary to government decisions, circulars, confusing people.

Ancient school Oriental affected?

Ancient classes based on lunar calendar, day and month of course will give different results when using different lunar calendar, such as horoscopes are completely based on lunar calendar and date. Even the parameters calculated based on the data that can coincide with the solar calendar (ie similar to the Chinese calendar) still need to pay attention to the accompanying Lunar components, such as Thien Duc star shining on the first day of January or the hour of the zodiac in the time of Thin Day . Day of the Second Day and the Day of the Day coincide between the two calendars but January and the hour of the Dragon may be different!

To avoid errors, the best Vietnamese people use the Vietnamese calendar. Mr. Binh introduced the following Vietnamese calendar printing books:

Vietnam Calendar 1901-1910 by Nguyen Mau Tung:
Le Thanh Lan's history and twenty-century historical calendar year 0001-2010;
Vietnamese calendar of XX-XXI century (1901-2010) of Tran Tien Binh.

For readers who have purchased perpetual calendars, the book Vietnam Calendar in the XX-XXI century (1901-2010) provides readers with details of the days of transitional periods, leap months, Lunar New Year and other time periods. each other between two calendars. For example, this year, the schedules of the two countries are different from June 25 to July 24, 2007, ranging from February 17 to March 18, 2008 from November 27 to December 26. Calendar.

The book also said that in 2007, a Year of Dinh Hoi Tet in Vietnam fell on February 17, coming to China one day.
