Features: The book is primarily organized based on the lunar calendar, highlighting the widely used sexagenary cycle for years, months, days, and times in folk traditions, accompanied by concise astronomical calendar and knowledge. It employs the newest methods to calculate the positions of the sun and moon, recalculating the moments of conjunctions and solar terms, with the standard time of 120°E longitude (Beijing Time) as the reference. Due to past limitations in computational conditions, some conjunctions and solar term moments may differ by one day compared to the current calculations. To maintain the continuity of calendar usage, the book retains the data from A New Compendium of Annual Calendars for periods before the founding of the People's Republic of China. The (Myriad-Year Calendar) covers the years 1901-2100, totaling 200 years, with two pages per year. The top of each page lists the lunar year, sexagenary cycle, zodiac animal, and the corresponding Gregorian year. Each page features a lunar calendar table where the top row provides lunar months and the sexagenary cycle for months, while the columns list lunar dates. The "Gregorian Calendar" column shows the Gregorian month and date, and the "Sexagenary Cycle" column lists the sexagenary cycle for days. Solar terms are listed in the last row, including the term name, the corresponding lunar date and time, with the lunar month obtained from the same column's top row.
