Ji (celestial stem)

See also: Ji

Ji or tsi (zh-Hant 己, jǐ ) is the celestial sixth Tige sexagesimal Cycle Chinese.

The Chinese character jǐ (zh-Hant 己) should not be confused with the character yǐ (zh-Hant 已).

It corresponds in the theory of the Yin and yang to the Yin and in the theory of the five elements to the element ground. It is also associated with the cardinal point “centers” (regarded in the Far East as a cardinal point with whole share). In the theory of the sexagesimal cycle representing the growth of the plants, the ji represents the idea of a new life, and because of the three parallel lines of the character, is associated with the idea of scheduling, fitting and regularity.

In Chinese and Japanese, ji often refers to the sixth element of a series: the letter F , the idea of 6th category… In Organic chemistry, it represents the Groupe hexyl: Hexane (zh-Hant 己烷 jǐwán ), Hexanoic acid (zh-Hant 己酸 jǐsuān ), Hexanol (zh-Hant 己醇 jǐchún ), etc

The years in ji are those of the Gregorian Calendrier finishing by 9: 1989, 1999, 2009, 2019, etc

In the Chinese sexagesimal cycle, the celestial stem yi can join the terrestrial branches if , Mao , cabbage , hai , you and wei to form the combinations:

Jisi (zh-Hant 己巳) = 6
Jimao (zh-Hant 己卯) = 16
Jichou (zh-Hant 己丑) = 26
Jihai (zh-Hant 己亥) = 36
Jiyou (zh-Hant 己酉) = 46
