Temporal Measurement

The Earth's poles tilt toward and away from the sun as the Earth orbits it. This causes days to be shorter or longer around the world, and is the main reason there are seasons. I enjoy learning about measuring the passage of time from vernal equinox to vernal equinox, not only with the 24 Solar Terms, but with the 72 divisions of the "hou" (these are the 候, also known as "pentads" in English) as well. I'm also working on making a revised solar calendar, based on historical calenderical systems used by various cultures- including the Zodiac and Earthly Branches.
