Then comes the Joe Moore Award shirt tee how do we know when and where to slot this leap month in? This is where the Solar Terms, consisting consisting of twenty-four nodes (節氣), also known as the 12 Major and 12 Minor Solar Terms. The purpose of Solar Terms is to synchronize with the seasons. Each of these nodes were spaced at approximately fifteen day intervals through the year. The reason why the solar terms are not spaced evenly is because the speed along the ecliptic varies depending on the Earth-Sun distance. Solar Terms depicted the Sun’s position on the ecliptic, with each of them spaced 15 degrees apart on the ecliptic plane. The lunar months were used in conjunction with these 24 Solar Terms (12 Major & 12 Minor) and the end result was the calculation of around 30.43 days to reach the next Major Solar Term, which makes for 365 days in a year (steps were taken by the Chinese to address non-whole numbers but I won’t go into that here).
