The tenth divination on the moon's heavenly stem encountering outer and inner officials.

《海中占》曰：月入攝提，聖人受制，謀臣在側。（此亦非月行所及，但古人有此占，又為災，或行越變常，以至於此也。）月犯蝕大角，強國亡，戰不勝，大人憂患，有大喪。大角貫月，天子惡之。月犯織女，女主有憂。月犯鉤鈐，駟馬駕，將有行。

The Sea of the Sea divination text says: When the moon enters the star of SheTi, it indicates that a virtuous person is restrained, and a wise minister is nearby. (SheTi is not a place the moon can reach, but the ancients had this divination phrase; this is also considered an omen of disaster, or perhaps the moon deviating from its normal path and becoming abnormal, leading to such a situation.) When the moon invades or covers the Big Dipper star, it indicates the downfall of a powerful state, failure in battle, worries for the great person, and a great mourning. When the light of the Big Dipper star passes through the moon, it indicates the emperor will be anxious and distressed. When the moon invades the Vega star, it indicates the female ruler will have worries. When the moon invades the Hook Star, it indicates four horses will be used for a carriage, and there will be travel.

月犯東西咸，主因淫致禍，有陰謀。犯於東咸，必有賊。（晉孝武大元二十一年四月，月犯東咸，吳郡內使王欽發人誡嚴，吳興諸郡響應為賊。）月犯天江，大水，關梁塞。月犯乘天市，粟貴，有更弊之令，大將死，或易政。月入天市及有變於市中者，女主憂，將相有戮於市者，近臣有罪。

When the moon invades the stars of Dongxian and Xixian, it indicates disorder caused by licentiousness, leading to calamity and secret plots. If the moon invades Dongxian, there will certainly be thieves. (In the twentieth year of Emperor Xiaowu of the Jin Dynasty, in the fourth month, the moon invaded Dongxian; the internal historian of Wujun, Wang Qin, mobilized the people and put the city on alert for possible disturbances, and the prefectures of Wuxing and others followed suit and became bandits.) When the moon invades Tianjiang star, it indicates a great flood and blockage of passes and bridges. When the moon invades or overshadows Tianshi垣, it indicates high grain prices, imperial edicts to reform corrupt policies, the death of a general, or a change in government officials. When the moon enters Tianshi垣 or there is an anomaly within Tianshi垣, it indicates worry for the female ruler, the execution of a minister in the marketplace, and the punishment of a close official.

月犯侯星，侯有憂。月犯帝座宗星，人主有憂。月犯宦者，侍臣誅。月犯建星，大臣相譖死。（按魏陳留王景元元年二月，月犯建星。是後鍾、鄧相譖，以至夷滅。）月變於建星，有亂臣更天子之法令者。一曰近臣大將死，易將相。

When the moon invades the star of the feudal lords, it indicates that the feudal lords will have worries. When the moon invades the star of the imperial throne or the star of the ancestral temple, it indicates that the sovereign will have worries. When the moon invades the star of the eunuchs, it indicates that a servant minister will be executed. When the moon invades the star of the construction, it indicates that high ministers will slander each other and result in death. (Note: In the second year of Jingyuan during the reign of Wei's Chenliu Wang, the moon invaded the star of the construction; afterwards, Zhonghui and Deng'ai slandered each other, leading to both being exterminated.) When the moon shows an anomaly in the star of the construction, it indicates that there will be a rebellious minister who alters the sovereign's laws; another interpretation is that a close minister or a great general will die, and the ministers will be replaced.

月犯天弁，天下粟貴，一犯一貴。月犯河鼓，犯左，左將死；犯右，右將死。所中者誅，有軍敗亡。月犯乘大陵，天下盡喪服。星眾，兵革起，死人如丘山；星稀則無。月乘犯捲舌，天下多喪。月乘天尸者，亂臣在內。

When the moon invades the Tian Bian star, it indicates that grain prices will rise, with each invasion causing another increase. When the moon invades the He Gu star, invading the left star signifies the death of the left general, and invading the right star signifies the death of the right general; the person corresponding to the star that is affected will be executed, and there will be military defeat. When the moon invades or overpowers the Da Ling star, it indicates that all people will wear mourning clothes; if there are many stars in Da Ling, wars will break out and the dead will pile up like hills; if there are few stars, this outcome will not occur. When the moon invades or overpowers the Juan She star, it indicates many funerals across the land. When the moon invades or overpowers the Tian Shi star, it indicates that a traitor will be within the court.

月犯五車，兵起趣駕。月入五車，天庫兵起，道路阻。（一雲天下兵起。劉向五星同占。）月犯天關，有亂臣更天子之法，主關津者有罪，王者憂。月犯南河戒，為中邦凶。北河戒，四方兵起，有喪，大旱，百姓病疫，刑罰峻暴，誅伐不當。

When the moon invades the Five Stars of the Chariot, it indicates the outbreak of military affairs and the urgent need to drive quickly. When the moon enters the Five Stars of the Chariot, it signifies the use of weapons from the emperor's armory, the rise of military affairs, and obstruction of roads. Another interpretation is that warfare will break out across the land. Liu Xiang's recorded interpretation of the five planets invading the Five Stars of the Chariot is the same as this. When the moon invades the Tian Guan star, it indicates the presence of a rebellious minister who alters the emperor's laws, officials in charge of checkpoints and ferry crossings will be punished, and the sovereign will have worries. When the moon invades the Nan He Jie star, it indicates misfortune for the Central States. When the moon invades the Bei He Jie star, it indicates warfare breaking out in all directions, mourning, a great drought, the people suffering from an epidemic, severe and cruel punishments, and unjust punishments.

月犯北河之中，冠帶國兵起，道阻塞，人君失道，淫女子，金錢貪色奢侈。月行南戒之南，兵旱並起，男子多喪；月行北戒之北，兵水並起，女子多喪。月犯五諸侯，諸侯誅。（宋孝武大明三年四月，月犯五諸侯，時竟陵王誕反，沈慶之攻敗也。）

When the moon enters the area between the stars Beihè èr and Beihè èr, it indicates that a country valuing clothing, hats, rituals, and propriety will engage in military actions, roads will be blocked, the ruler will lose the Way, indulge in female pleasures, be greedy for wealth, and indulge in luxury. If the moon is in the southern forbidden region, it indicates that military disasters and drought will occur together, and many men will die. If the moon is in the northern forbidden region, it indicates that military disasters and floods will occur together, and many women will die. When the moon invades the five feudal lords stars, it indicates that the feudal lords will be executed. (In the third year of Emperor Xiaowu of Song, in April, the moon invaded the five feudal lords stars; at that time, Prince Liu Dan of Jingling rebelled and was defeated and captured by Shen Qingzhi.)

月入軒轅中犯乘之，有逆賊，女主憂，若火災。月犯軒轅左右角，臣有誅。乘大民星，大飢，太后宗有誅者。若有罪，犯其端，臣子反，有亂臣，臣子失勢，其所中者，以官名之。犯乘少民星，小飢小流，皇后宗有誅。若有罪，犯御女，御女有憂，御僕死。月犯大星，女主當之。（晉安帝元興三年四月甲午，月掩軒轅第二星。明年七月戊申，永安皇后何氏崩。孝武太元五年七月庚子，月犯軒轅大星。九月癸未，皇后王氏崩。）

The moon entering the Xuanyuan star and infringing upon or overpowering it indicates rebellion by bandits, worries for the female ruler, or a fire. If the moon infringes upon the left or right angle stars of Xuanyuan, it signifies that a minister will be executed. If it overpowers the Great People star, there will be a great famine and people from the empress dowager's family will be executed; if there is a crime and the moon also infringes upon the head star of Xuanyuan, it indicates rebellion by ministers, chaos in the court, and ministers losing power. As for which specific star is involved, the person affected should be identified according to the official position associated with that star. If the moon infringes upon or overpowers the Lesser People star, it indicates a minor famine and small-scale migration, with people from the empress's family being executed; if there is a crime and the moon also infringes upon the Imperial Concubine star, it indicates worries for the imperial concubine and death of the palace servant. If the moon infringes upon the Great Star of Xuanyuan, the effect is on the female ruler. (In the third year of Yuanxing of Emperor Jianwen, in April, the moon covered the second star of Xuanyuan; in the following year, in July, the empress dowager He died. In the fifth year of Taoyuan of Emperor Xiaowu, in July, the moon infringed upon the Great Star of Xuanyuan; in September, the empress Wang died.)

月犯少微，處士有憂。（續晉陽秋云：會稽謝敷，字慶緒，隱若邦山，初月犯少微。時載逵名著於敷，時人憂之。俄而敷死，會稽嘲吳人曰：吳中高士，便是求死不得也。）月犯少微，女主憂，宰相易，而憂史官黜。月犯少微南一星，處士憂，第一星，義士憂；第三星，博士憂；第四星，大夫憂。

When the moon invades the star of Xiaowei, it indicates worry for a reclusive gentleman. (The "Continued History of Jinyang" records that Xie Fu, a person from Kuaiji, named Qingsu, lived in seclusion in Ruoye Mountain. At that time, when the moon invaded the star of Xiaowei, Dai Kui was more renowned than Xie Fu, and people were worried about Dai Kui. Soon after, however, Xie Fu died. People from Kuaiji thus mocked people from Wu, saying: "The high scholars of Wu are even unable to seek death.") When the moon invades the star of Xiaowei, it indicates worry for the female sovereign, a change of prime minister, and worry for the historian being demoted. When the moon invades the southern star of Xiaowei, it indicates worry for a reclusive gentleman; invading the first star indicates worry for a virtuous person; the third star indicates worry for a doctoral scholar; and the fourth star indicates worry for a senior official.

月行太微中，皆為大臣有憂，大臣死。月所犯者，天子誅之。亦曰后族擅威，凶。月入太微中，若流星縱橫逕行太微中者，主弱臣強，諸侯、四夷兵不制。行不端，心不正。心不正，有邪欲不受命，有奸人在王庭，四夷難信，月干犯太微庭，出其門為使。月貫太微中而東出，大臣出、王侯入為主。出其中門，臣不臣。月入太微，有喪。（《宋書志》云：晉穆帝昇平五年五月壬寅，月犯太微，是月丁巳穆帝崩。安帝義熙十四年五月庚子又犯太微，九月丁巳，又入太微，是年十二月戊寅，安帝崩。）

The moon passing through the Taiwei垣 indicates that high officials will suffer misfortune, possibly death. The person associated with the star that the moon invades will be executed by the emperor. Some say this also indicates the royal family abusing power, which is ominous. If the moon enters the Taiwei垣 or if a meteor crosses through the Taiwei垣, it signifies the ruler's weakness and the ministers' dominance, with the feudal lords and the four barbarian tribes' armies becoming uncontrollable. This is due to improper conduct and immoral intentions; immoral intentions lead to improper desires and disobedience to the emperor's orders. There are wicked people in the court, and the four barbarian tribes are hard to trust. If the moon invades the Taiwei垣 and exits from its gate, it indicates the departure of envoys. If the moon passes through the Taiwei垣 and exits from the east, it indicates the dismissal of ministers and the feudal princes taking charge of court affairs. If it exits from the middle gate, it indicates ministers failing to uphold their duties. If the moon enters the Taiwei垣, it indicates mourning. (The "Book of the Later Han·Astronomical Records" records: In the fifth month of the fifth year of Emperor Mu of the Jin Dynasty, the moon invaded Taiwei; in the same month on Dingsi, Emperor Mu died. In the fourteenth year of Emperor An of the Jin Dynasty, in the fifth month, the moon again invaded Taiwei, and on the ninth month on Dingsi, it entered Taiwei again; in the twelfth month on Wuyin of that year, Emperor An died.)

月行左右執法，大臣憂，相繫而死，免者少。月出東掖門，為相受命東南出，德事也；出西掖門，為將受令西南出，刑事也。（上同。）月出太微中華東西門，若左右掖門而出端門者，皆為必有度。（五星同。）月入太微西門，出東門，人君不安，大臣假主之威，不從王命。月犯干太微庭，臣殺主，宜求賢人。人中華西門，出中華東門，皆為臣出令。入太陰西門，出太陽東門，皆為大亂有喪，苦大水。月入西門，犯天庭，出端門，皆為大臣伐主。（《宋志》云：晉恭帝元熙元年正月丙午，三月壬寅，五月丙申，七月乙卯，月皆犯太微。二年六月三日，帝遜位宋高祖。）

When the moon passes by the Left and Right Law Stars, it indicates that ministers will suffer misfortune, and many will be implicated and die, with few escaping. If the moon exits from the eastern gate of Taimei, it signifies that a chancellor is ordered to travel southeast, which relates to acts of virtue. If it exits from the western gate, it signifies that a general is ordered to travel southwest, which relates to the use of punishment. (The interpretation is the same as the previous passage.) If the moon enters through the eastern or western central gates of Taimei, or enters through the left and right side gates and exits through the end gate, it indicates that actions will follow established rules. (The same applies to the five planets.) If the moon enters through the western gate of Taimei and exits through the eastern gate, it indicates that the sovereign is uneasy and ministers abuse the sovereign's authority, disobeying the royal decree. If the moon confronts the court of Taimei, it indicates that a minister will kill the sovereign, and at this time, it is advisable to seek out virtuous ministers for assistance. If the moon enters through the western central gate and exits through the eastern central gate, it indicates that ministers will act independently and issue orders on their own. If the moon enters through the western gate of Taimei and exits through the eastern gate of Taiyin, it indicates great chaos, mourning, and suffering from major floods. If the moon enters through the western gate, invades the heavenly court, and exits through the end gate, it indicates that ministers will attack the sovereign. (The "Book of the Later Han · Astronomical Records" states: In the first year of Yuanxi of Emperor Gong of Jin, in January Bingwu, March Renyin, May Bingshen, and July Yimao, the moon all invaded Taimei. On the third day of the sixth month in the second year of Yuanxi, Emperor Gong abdicated in favor of Liu Yu, the founder of the Song dynasty.)

月行犯黃帝座，大人憂，天下存亡半，有亂臣，主惡之，臣子反，政大易。月犯四帝座天下亡。月出黃帝座，北禍大，出南禍小，皆為下謀上。月犯太微，乘四輔，大臣誅。月行犯乘守內屏星，皆為群臣失禮，而輔臣有誅者，若免罷。

The moon passing over the Yellow Emperor's star indicates that a great person will have worries, with the fate of the world divided equally between survival and destruction. There will be treacherous ministers in court, causing the monarch to feel anxious and resentful, while ministers rebel and the political situation undergoes a major change. If the moon passes over the four imperial stars, it signifies the danger and collapse of the entire realm. If the moon exits from the north of the Yellow Emperor's star, the calamity will be great; if it exits from the south, the calamity will be minor. In both cases, those in lower positions will plot against those in higher positions. If the moon passes over, occupies, or lingers on the Taiwei constellation and the four auxiliary stars, it indicates that senior ministers will be executed. If the moon passes over, occupies, or lingers on the internal screen stars, it signifies that ministers will lose decorum, and among the ministers assisting in governance, some will be executed or dismissed.

月入咸池，天下大亂，人君死，易政。月入三臺，君有大憂患，敗在臣下。月入三臺，大臣為天子，公侯共殺君。月入庫樓，天下兵並起。月宿羽林，軍兵大起。月犯乘北落，皆為天下兵大起。

When the moon enters the Xianchi star, it indicates great chaos throughout the realm, the death of the sovereign, and a change of power. When the moon enters the Star of Ranks, it signifies great worries for the sovereign, with calamity arising from the ministers. When the moon enters the Star of Ranks, it also indicates that high officials may proclaim themselves emperor, and dukes and marquises conspire to assassinate the sovereign. When the moon enters the Kulu star, it indicates that military actions will arise throughout the land. When the moon is stationed among the YuLin stars, it indicates a large-scale military campaign. When the moon invades or overshadows the Beiluoshimen star, it indicates a great outbreak of warfare across the land.

月入天倉，主財寶出，憂臣在內，天下有兵起。月犯天倉，有移谷。月入天市，軍起。月行弧矢，臣逾主。月變於狼星，陳兵不戰。一曰兵起小戰，有水事。甘氏云：月在天理，臣當坐欲反者而入獄。一曰君大憂。

The moon entering the Heavenly Granary star indicates that the treasury and treasures will be dispersed outside, causing the ruler to worry about ministers within the court, and military actions will arise throughout the realm. When the moon invades the Heavenly Granary star, it mainly signifies the transfer of grain. The moon entering the Heavenly Market enclosure indicates the rise of military forces. The moon passing through the Huoshi star indicates ministers exceeding the authority of the ruler. When the moon undergoes change in the Tianlang star, it signifies the deployment of troops in formation without actual combat; another interpretation is that there will be minor battles accompanied by water-related disasters. The Gan school says: when the moon is in the Tianli star, it indicates ministers being imprisoned due to involvement in plots against the ruler; another interpretation is that the ruler will face great anxiety.

月乘天高，將死，臣有誅。月入咸池，暴兵起。月入天潢中者，皆為兵起。道路阻，天下亂，易政。一曰貴人多死。月犯乘天潢，二十日兵起。月不從天街者，皆為政令不行，不出其年有兵。月行天街中，天下寧，百姓順。月行天街外，百姓凶。月行折威中，天子亡威。

The moon approaching and overpowering the star Tian Gao indicates the death of a general and the execution of a minister. When the moon enters the star Xianchi, it signifies sudden military calamities. When the moon enters the star Tian Huang, it indicates the outbreak of military conflicts, blocked roads, turmoil across the country, and a change of government; another interpretation is that many nobles will die. When the moon invades or overpowers the star Tian Huang, military conflicts will arise within twenty days. If the moon does not follow the path of Tian Jie, it indicates that decrees cannot be implemented, and military conflicts will occur within the same year. When the moon travels along Tian Jie, it signifies peace throughout the country and obedience of the people. When the moon travels outside Tian Jie, it indicates misfortune for the people. When the moon is in the star Zhe Wei, it signifies the loss of authority by the emperor.

月行入哭星，有大喪，主崩。月乘鍵閉星，大人憂，大臣誅，天子不敬，天火害於宗廟，王者不宜出宮，天子崩。月入天積，即蒭藁也。財寶出，主憂臣在內。月行天廄星間，為兵歸。月行天廄，主上不安。月行天淵中，臣逾主。月入中犯乘鈇鑕，皆為鈇鑕用。

The moon entering the哭泣 star indicates a great mourning, with the ruler's death. The moon overpowering the key-closing star indicates great sorrow for a high official, the execution of a minister, and the emperor neglecting caution, with heavenly fire destroying the ancestral temple; at this time, the king should not leave the palace, otherwise there will be the calamity of the emperor's death. The moon entering the 天积 star (which is also called the straw and fodder star) indicates the dispersal of treasures outside, and the minister who causes the ruler worry is within the court. The moon passing through the 天厩 stars indicates the army returning from battle; the moon passing through the 天厩 star indicates the ruler being unsettled. The moon entering, invading, or overpowering the 鈇锧 star indicates the use of the 鈇锧 execution.

月暈者，謂之逡巡也。人君乘土而亡，其政失平，則月多暈而圓。月暈，受沖之國不安。月暈，臣下專權之象。四孟月七日，四仲月八日，四季月九日，皆夜當月暈。暈若不以其日，不出三日，有暴風甚雨。月暈，聞皆為其君背約。

The phenomenon known as "moon halo" is also called "qunxun." When a ruler relies on the virtue of earth but ultimately meets his downfall and the government loses fairness, the moon often produces multiple halos, which are round in shape. The appearance of a moon halo indicates that the country corresponding to the opposite zodiac sign of the moon will experience unrest. A moon halo is a sign of ministers seizing power. On the seventh day of the first month (climatic spring), the eighth day of the second month (climatic summer), and the ninth day of the third month (climatic autumn) in each of the four "meng" months, as well as the first day of the four "zhong" months and the first day of the four "ji" months, moon halos are naturally expected to appear. If a moon halo does not appear on these days, there will be a storm and heavy rain within three days. The appearance of a moon halo signifies that the ruler of the country has broken his oaths and treaties.

月暈，東向者敗五木，西向者且雨而風，害五穀。北向者為水，南向者旱風。月暈明者，王自將兵。月暈七日，無雨大風，兵大作，若土功起。月暈多直，為兵，曲吏逆，則為雨。月暈黃色，將軍益秩。候月暈，常以十二月八日。

When the moon halo is偏向 the east, it indicates damage to five types of wooden crops. When it is偏向 the west, it indicates an approaching rain and wind, which will damage grain. When it is偏向 the north, it indicates flooding. When it is偏向 the south, it indicates drought and strong winds. If the moon halo is exceptionally bright, it indicates the king personally leading the army. If there is no rain and strong winds within seven days after the moon halo appears, it indicates a large military movement or the commencement of major construction projects. If the moon halo has straight lines, it indicates military affairs. If it has curved lines, it indicates officials acting against the law and also rain. If the moon halo is yellow, it indicates an increase in the salary of generals. Observing the moon halo is usually done on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

暈再重，有大風，兵起，災在內，女親用事。暈再重，赤雲繞之如杵，有軍在外，萬人死其下。月南北有半暈兩重，月北有青雲五沖，關不通。月暈三重，天下大亂，必有拒城。

A double halo around the moon indicates great wind, military actions will arise, and calamities will occur within the palace, with female relatives controlling affairs. A double halo around the moon, accompanied by red clouds resembling a wooden mallet surrounding it, indicates armies outside, with ten thousand people dying under this celestial omen. The moon has two and a half halos in the north and south, and five blue clouds rising straight up from the north side of the moon, indicating blocked passes and blocked roads. A triple halo around the moon indicates great chaos throughout the land, and there will certainly be resistance from fortified cities.

月暈四重，天下易王。（漢高帝七年，月暈參畢七重。占曰：昴畢間，天街也。街北，胡也。街南，中國也。昴為匈奴，參為趙，畢為邊兵。是歲高帝自將兵擊匈奴。至平城，為冒頓單于所圍，七日乃解。）暈八重，天下有亡國。暈九重，暈十重，天下更王。

A moon halo appearing four times indicates that the ruler of the world will be replaced. (In the seventh year of Emperor Gao of the Han dynasty, a moon halo covered the mansion of Three Stars and the mansion of Net for seven layers. The divination text says: Between the mansion of Hairy Head and the mansion of Net is the celestial street; to the north of the celestial street belongs the land of the Hu people, and to the south belongs the Central Plains. The mansion of Hairy Head governs the Xiongnu, the mansion of Three Stars governs the state of Zhao, and the mansion of Net governs military affairs on the border. In that year, Emperor Gao personally led his troops to attack the Xiongnu, and reached Pingcheng where he was surrounded by Modu Chanyu for seven days before he was finally rescued.) A moon halo appearing eight times indicates that a country will perish. A moon halo appearing nine times or ten times indicates that the ruler of the world will be replaced.

月色黃白交暈，一黃二赤，所宿其國受咎。月交暈，赤有光，其國不出三年遇兵。月色黃白交暈，所宿之國受其殃。月暈環如兩，軍兵起，軍事爭。月暈如連環，有白虹干暈，不及月，女貴人有陰謀亂，有白衣令，宮中多怪。

The moon appears yellow and white with intersecting rings, one yellow and two red, indicating that the country corresponding to the star mansion where the moon resides will suffer misfortune. When the moon produces intersecting rings, if the color is red and bright, it indicates that the country will face military disaster within three years. If the moon appears yellow and white with intersecting rings, it indicates that the country corresponding to the moon's star mansion will suffer calamity. If the moon's ring has two layers, it indicates that military forces will rise and there will be conflicts within the army. If the moon's ring is shaped like a chain, and there is a white rainbow that penetrates the ring but does not touch the moon, it indicates that a noblewoman is secretly plotting rebellion, and will issue orders for mourning in plain clothes, with many strange occurrences in the palace.

月暈而冠，天子大喜，或大風。月暈而珥，歲平國安。又曰國有女喪。月暈而珥，攻擊者勝利。月暈一珥，所在國失地。月暈，先起者有喜。月抱珥在暈外赤，外人勝。

A halo above the moon indicates great joy or a strong wind. A pendant above the moon signifies a smooth harvest and national peace; another interpretation suggests there will be the death of a woman in the country. A pendant above the moon indicates that the attacking side will win. If there is only one pendant, the country where the pendant is located will lose territory. When a moon halo appears, the side that first sees the halo will have good fortune. If the embracing and pendant clouds around the moon are outside the halo and red, the people on the outer side will win.

月有兩暈不合，其月水；四背，有謀不成。五月中有九暈以上，道路大有熱死者。月暈一重，下缺不合，上有冠帶，有兩珥，白暈連環貫珥，接北斗，國有大兵，大戰流血，其分亡地。

The moon has two layers of halo that cannot merge, indicating water disaster for the moon's ruler; if there are four diverging clouds above the halo, it signifies that planned affairs will not succeed. If there are more than nine layers of moon halo in the fifth month, it indicates many people will die from heatstroke on the roads. If there is one layer of moon halo with a gap at the bottom that cannot merge, and there is a crown and belt cloud above, along with two ear-like clouds, the white halo appears as a chain passing through the ear-like clouds and connecting to the Big Dipper, indicating a large-scale military conflict within the country, a bloody battle, and the loss of territory in the corresponding region.

月以正月三日暈，所宿國小熟，一日二日，必有土功。五日暈，大熟。上旬一暈，樹木蟲；二暈，禾穀蟲；三暈震雷；十日暈，天下更王；六日、八日、九日暈，天下有國亡。正月中有九暈以上，道多飢死人。

If a lunar halo appears on the third day of the first lunar month, it indicates that the country where the moon resides will have a moderate harvest; if it appears on the first or second day, there will certainly be construction projects involving earth and wood. If a halo appears on the fifth day, it signifies a great harvest. If a single halo appears in the first ten days, it indicates pests in trees; two halos indicate pests in grain; three halos indicate lightning and thunder. If a halo appears on the tenth day, it signifies a change of ruler throughout the country. If a halo appears on the sixth, eighth, or ninth day, it indicates the fall of states. If there are more than nine halos in the first lunar month, it indicates many people will die of starvation on the roads.

凡月暈五星，星色不明主人勝，星色明客勝。暈木，人主病，不然大水，五暈，人主疾喪；暈木，天下有女子之憂，糴貴，三重，相死；暈木，其國主不安。暈火，女主凶，若有死亡，所守國主當之；熒惑在暈中，色惡不明，客兵敗；暈火，兵在野大戰，無兵大旱，兵起。

If the moon halo encompasses all five planets, and the stars appear dark and indistinct, it indicates the army of the main force will prevail; if the stars are bright, the opposing army will prevail. If the moon halo encompasses the planet Jupiter (the year star), it indicates the sovereign will fall ill, or there will be a great flood; if the halo reaches five layers, it signifies the sovereign will suffer illness and die. When the moon halo encompasses Jupiter, it also indicates there will be troubles caused by women, and grain prices will rise sharply; if the halo reaches three layers, it signifies the prime minister will die. When the moon halo encompasses Jupiter, it also indicates the ruler of the country will be restless. If the moon halo encompasses Mars (the malefic of violence), it indicates misfortune for the female ruler, or there will be deaths, which will be verified in the country corresponding to the area where Mars is located; if Mars is within the halo and the color is poor and not bright, it indicates the opposing army will suffer defeat. When the moon halo encompasses Mars, it also indicates a major battle between armies in the open field; if there is no military action, it indicates a severe drought, followed by the outbreak of military conflict.

暈土，所宿國有福德；填星色不明，主人勝；暈三重，相死，天下土動功，兵起，女主憂；暈土，其國女主失勢，有土功事。暈金，其國受兵，戰不勝，主人敗；暈金而星月合，其主死境外。暈水再合再解，其國敗主死。月暈辰星，色不明，主人勝；明，客勝；暈水，角亢間二星如連環，有大臣謀；春夏暈水，民病寒熱；在秋冬，憂兵起，不即大水，主死，若大憂；冬暈水，主命惡之。

When the moon's halo surrounds Saturn, it indicates that the country where the moon resides has fortune and virtue. If the aura of Saturn is unclear, it signifies military victory. If the halo reaches three layers, it indicates the death of the prime minister, large-scale construction projects throughout the country, and the outbreak of military conflicts, with the female ruler experiencing worries.

凡月，春暈木，夏暈火，秋暈金，冬暈水。四季暈土，而其星惡之，皆為其國之分主死國亂，大凶。

In general, when the moon forms a halo, in spring it covers the planet Jupiter (Wood), in summer it covers the planet Mars (Fire), in autumn it covers the planet Saturn (Metal), and in winter it covers the planet Mercury (Water). In the last month of each season, it covers the planet Venus (Earth). This is when the moon's halo envelops the planet that is dominant in that season. The planet most dislikes this situation. Whenever this phenomenon occurs, it indicates that the country corresponding to the planet's domain will experience death and calamity, and great political turmoil, which is an extremely ominous sign.

角：月暈左角，軍道阻塞，大臣誅，獄官刑，左將有殃。月暈右角，右將有殃，鱗角多死害，太尉士卒刑死。月暈兩角，大水。色黃白，王者大喜，當有德令；無德令，則天子以軍兵自守，其國不安，有兵兵罷，無兵兵起，將憂。月行角間，暈再重，連環圍北斗，有大臣誅。甲乙為春，丙丁為夏，庚辛為秋，以四時期之。凡占災祥皆此例。月暈角亢，先起兵者有喜，勝。

The Horn mansion is the gate of heaven. The left horn presides over legal punishments, while the right horn presides over generals. Its corresponding region is the states of Zheng and Yan.

If no such decree is issued, the emperor will need to defend the country with military force, and the state will be unstable. Those who were originally at war will cease, while those who were at peace will start war, and generals will have worries. The time of the omen is determined by matching the heavenly stem of the day with the four seasons: if it is Jia or Yi, the omen occurs in spring; if it is Bing or Ding, in summer; if it is Geng or Xin, in autumn. All predictions of omens and disasters follow this pattern.

暈天街，關梁阻塞。暈客星，在月北，北國勝；在南，南國勝。暈天，下無雲，有流星過月下，若過月上，其國有喜。一曰兵出。流星橫度暈中者，諸侯皇后有亡失國者。月無精光，青赤暈，及虹蜺背璚蝕心度中，是為大蕩，兵喪大起，王者以德除咎。暈有雲貫，暈輝約月，不出其年，所直國有喪。

月生三日無魄，其月必蝕。《易緯萌氣樞》曰：候月盡蝕，視水中不見影者盡蝕。凡月蝕，其鄉有拔邑大戰之事。凡師出門而蝕，當其國之野，大敗軍死。月蝕三日內，有雨，事解，吉。月蝕以旦相及，太子當之；以夕，君當之。

When the moon first appears and is visible for three days but then its outline is not visible, there will certainly be a lunar eclipse. The "Yi Wei · Meng Qi Shu" says: To predict whether the moon will be fully eclipsed, one should observe the reflection of the moon in water. If the moon's reflection is not visible in the water, then it is a full eclipse. Whenever there is a lunar eclipse, it indicates that there will be an attack on a city, and a large-scale battle in the direction where the moon is located. If an army departs from the city gate at the time of a lunar eclipse, it indicates that the army will suffer a great defeat in the territory corresponding to the eclipse, and many soldiers will die. If it rains within three days after a lunar eclipse, it signifies that the situation will be resolved, which is a good omen. If a lunar eclipse occurs at the time when the sky is just beginning to brighten, it indicates an event related to the crown prince; if it occurs in the evening, it indicates an event related to the king.

月蝕起南方，男子惡之。起北方，女子惡之。起東方，少者惡之。起西方，老者惡之。月蝕盡，光耀亡，君之殃。蝕不盡，光輝散，臣之憂。月蝕中分，不出五年，國有憂兵，其分軍亡。月蝕而斗且暈，國君惡之。有軍必戰，無軍兵起。

If the moon is entirely eclipsed and loses all its light, it portends calamity for the sovereign. If the moon is partially eclipsed, with its light scattered, it indicates trouble for ministers. If half of the moon is eclipsed, it foretells military disaster within five years, and the army in the corresponding region will be destroyed. When a lunar eclipse occurs and is accompanied by other stars conflicting and producing a lunar halo, the sovereign should be wary. If there are already armies, war is certain; if not, military action will arise.

兩月並蝕，天下大亂。月蝕，有氣從外來入月中，主人凶。從中出外，客凶。氣從南行，南軍凶；北行，北軍凶。東西亦然。軍在外而月蝕，將環其國，戰不勝。月生三日而蝕，是謂大殃，國有喪。十日至十四日而蝕，天下兵起。十五日而蝕，國破滅亡。

When two moons appear in the sky and both are eclipsed at the same time, it indicates great chaos throughout the realm. When a lunar eclipse occurs and clouds enter the moon from outside, it signifies misfortune for the defending country; if the clouds spread out from the moon, it indicates misfortune for the invading force. If the clouds move south, the army in the south will suffer; if they move north, the army in the north will suffer; the same applies to movements east and west. If an army is stationed abroad and encounters a lunar eclipse, the general will have to take an indirect route back to his homeland, and the battle will not be won. If a lunar eclipse occurs on the third day after the moon's birth, this is called "great calamity," indicating national mourning. If a lunar eclipse occurs between the tenth and fourteenth days, it signifies warfare throughout the land. If a lunar eclipse occurs on the fifteenth day, it indicates the country's downfall and destruction.

春蝕，歲惡，將死，有憂；夏蝕，大旱；秋蝕，兵起；冬蝕，其國有兵喪。冬以其日辰占邦野：月以甲乙蝕，年多魚禾麥傷；丙丁蝕，年豐收；戊己蝕，無耕，下田凶；庚辛蝕，高田不收；壬癸蝕，歲和；月蝕辰巳，地採年麥傷。蝕午未，秋稼凶。

A lunar eclipse in spring indicates poor harvests, death of generals, and calamity; in summer, it indicates a great drought; in autumn, it indicates the outbreak of military conflicts; in winter, it indicates military disaster and funerals within the country. In winter, the specific country affected by the lunar eclipse is determined by the day branch on which the eclipse occurs. If the moon is eclipsed on a day with the heavenly stem Jia or Yi, there will be an abundance of fish but damage to millet and wheat; if on Bing or Ding, there will be a good harvest; if on Wu or Ji, there will be no farming and low-lying fields will have poor harvests; if on Geng or Xin, high fields will not yield crops; if on Ren or Gui, the harvest will be normal. If the moon is eclipsed on a day with the earthly branch Chen or Si, the land will have some harvest but the wheat will be damaged; if on Wu or Wei, the autumn crops will be poor.
