Dear Desmond,
Please read below:-
You see the Traditional Chinese time is divided int 12 units as 12 as follows:-
1 am - 2.59 am : chou
3 am - 4.59 am : yin
5 am - 6.59 am : mao
7 am - 8.59 am : chen
9 am - 10.59 am : si
11 am - 12.59 pm : wu
1 pm - 2.59 pm : wei
3 pm - 4.59 pm : shen
5 pm - 6.59 pm : you
7 pm - 8.59 pm : shu
9 pm - 10.59 pm : hai
11 pm - 12.59 am : zi
Modified version of the Traditional Time:-
1 am - 2.59 am : chou
3 am - 4.59 am : yin
5 am - 6.59 am : mao
7 am - 8.59 am : chen
9 am - 10.59 am : si
11 am - 12.59 pm : wu
1 pm - 2.59 pm : wei
3 pm - 4.59 pm : shen
5 pm - 6.59 pm : you
7 pm - 8.59 pm : shu
9 pm - 10.59 pm : hai
11 pm - 11.59 am : late zi
12 am - 12.59 am : early zi
(Basically not necessary)
11 pm to 12.59 am is already representing the following times:-
5 Feb 11 pm to 5 Feb 11.59 pm
6 Feb 12 am to 6 Feb 12.59 am
Basically, the timings are there so that we can convert the time into chinese time represented by Zi, Chou, Yin, etc.
Which is actually to make it simple Zi hour. That is all.
This means that for the Chinese hour of 11 pm - 12.59 am, it will represent the dates who are born in 5 Feb 11 pm to 6 Feb 12.59 am, 4 Feb 11 pm to 5 Feb 12.59 am, or even 6 Feb 11 pm to 7 Feb 12.59 am.
There is no need to modify any timing. As your Solar date would have converted it 6 Feb 12.59 am. Thus, your solar day is 6th day and not 5th day.
If you friend was born in 5 Feb 12:05 am, then he is considered 5 Feb Zi hour
Since is is born in 6 Feb 12:05 am, then he is considered 6 Feb Zi hour.
So that is why I do not see the explicit need for the modified dates or to worry about this, as your Solar dates have converted to the 6 day already.
That, is why so long as you enter your Solar date, the conversion will convert you to the proper representation of the Chinese Lunar date.
I think you are confusing yourself unnecessarily, since he is born on 6 Mar 00:05:-
Just choose 6 as the day, Mar as the month, the year he is born, and the timing 11 pm to 12.59 pm since it is 12:05 pm (00:05 pm).
The Solar date will have already treat it as 6 Mar and not 5 Mar.
Do not need to make any unnecessary modification to the Solar date, as it will be converted into the Chinese date according to your Solar Date.
Hope that clears your doubt.
Warmest Regards
Robert Lee

User's Comments Apart from learning the traditional method of this system, they have also taught me about compassion and humility. These qualities are extremely important in my opinion as we are dealing with people's lives when we delve deeply into their Four Pillars Chart and try assist as much as possible. Over the years, nothing has been too much of a problem for them in helping me attain the success I now experience. How I wish they were in down town Perth, Western Australia. I sincerely hope you Singaporeans understand just how very very fortunate you are to have them "on tap". I am originally from Singapore many years ago and I have an excellent understanding of the culture and lifestyle of the Island. Out of interest, I "monitor" a few Feng Shui "Lists" coming out of Singapore and to say that there is amazing nonsense being proliferated is putting it very mildly indeed. I feel so very sorry for those being "sucked in". So guys, we are a very lucky bunch of folk to be under the umbrella of Cecil and Robert Lee. I have no doubt reading all the posts that come thru Geomancy Net that you all do appreciate their efforts. Sincerely Glyn Hezakiah |
