Chinese Lunar Calendar Gender Prediction – 2 Important Tips
Up to this time, the true logic behind Chinese lunar calendar gender prediction is still a mystery. Many proponents believe that this chart was formulated with the use of the Chinese Five Elements and ancient statistics spanning for over thousands and thousands of years.
Many critics argue that the accuracy of Chinese baby gender predictor is well-around fifty to fifty-four percent (in favor of having a male child), almost equivalent to flipping of a coin. But experts in the use of Chinese birth chart believe that in order for this method to work, it must be done within a set of conditions or rules. The following are guidelines that need to be followed to ensure ninety-nine percent effectiveness with the use of this method.
First, make use of a lunar calendar. Ancient Chinese birth chart makes use of the lunar phases via the lunar calendar. This cannot be stressed enough. A lunar calendar indicates dates according to the phases of the moon. One lunar month is determined by the period it takes for the moon to complete its “full phasic cycle” or twenty-nine and a half days. One standard lunar year is eleven days shorter as compared to the solar or Gregorian calendar. The difference between lunar years and solar years are made up every nineteen years with the addition of seven lunar months or leap months. This distinction is important. The difficulty arises when some mothers mistakenly make use of Gregorian calendars instead of lunar calendars especially in times of leap months and leap years. To convert Gregorian calendars and your age to their lunar equivalents, there are resources available to you online.
Second, remember that a newborn baby is one year old in according to Chinese customs and traditions. Age increments or gets added up by one every Chinese New Year. With this, we assume that a baby born the day before Chinese New Year will be two years old on Chinese New Year. It is also this peculiar difference between Chinese and Western societies that affects the miscalculation of ages in the chart.
Remember that mother’s age is an important reference in baby gender prediction. To correct this, follow these steps. Subtract your birth year from your baby’s conception year and use this result. Check if your birth date lies before or after the Chinese New Year in your birth date’s particular year. Check if your baby’s conception date is before or after the Chinese New Year of its particular year. If your time of conception and birth date are in synch, meaning both come before or after the lunar year, add one year to the result of the difference of your birth year and baby’s conception year. If your time of conception is before the lunar year and your birth date is after Chinese New Year, don’t add to the result. If your time of conception is after Chinese New Year and your birth date is before Chinese New Year, add two to the result. This will be your lunar age.
Don’ts on Chinese Gender Prediction Charts Improve Sex Selection for Babies
Experts dispute the true accuracy of Chinese Gender Prediction Charts, often marking its accuracy at fifty percent, the equivalent of tossing a coin. However, the true proponents of Chinese Gender Prediction Charts say that, if done correctly, you can have a ninety-nine percent chance of getting a baby’s sex right. The following are events that you must avoid to better your chances at getting the right sex for your baby.
First, don’t choose the first and last ten days for gender periods. Gender periods are periods or seasons where boys or girls are likely to be conceived. This means that there are different seasons for boys and girls according to the age of the mother. To illustrate, according to the Chinese Gender Prediction Charts, the fourth until the sixth lunar month would be the gender period for women aged twenty-eight years and the eight lunar month as the gender period of women aged twenty-two years. This also implies that there are relative changes between gender periods of women in different ages. To prevent the discrepancies, don’t choose the first and last ten days of gender periods also known as “Days of Unsteadiness”.
Under this you have to remember two things. First, choose days closer to the middle of the gender period for a higher success rate in determining and selecting gender. Chinese Gender Prediction Charts have peaks and troughs. By selecting the “peak seasons” you better your chances at getting the sex you want for your baby. Second, the longer and steadier the gender period is, the more suitable for conception.
Second, unless you insist to, don’t conceive on leap months. It takes exactly 29.35 days for the moon to complete its phasic cycles. Our typical Gregorian calendars count in integer days with twenty-nine to thirty days moving in regular and irregular sequences. Therefore, comparatively, we have shorter lunar months which all add up to 354.36 days which is approximately eleven days shorter than our usual solar year. Aside from being an omen, conceiving on leap months complicates the use of Chinese Gender Prediction Charts. With the use of the lunar calendar, the difference in months is reconciled every nineteen years with the addition of seven months. Also, still with the use of the lunar calendar, we have a leap year with a leap month every three years as compared to four years in our usual calendars.
The true rationale behind Chinese Gender Prediction Charts has been lost to us and no one is for certain why this works, but it does. Many proponents of Chinese Gender Prediction Charts claim its validity on ancient surveys and the Chinese Five Elements. Chinese Gender Prediction Charts or Chinese Lunar Pregnancy Calendars for women according to age can be researched online.
Scientific Theories Behind Chinese Gender Calendar
According to Chinese Gender Calendar, there are exactly 29.35 days or the moon to complete its phasic cycles. This means that it will take approximately 29 days for a new moon to go into a full moon and back again. Gregorian calendars, the usual calendars that we use today, make use of twenty-nine, thirty and even thirty-one integer-days moving in regular and irregular sequences. Therefore, we cold say that lunar months are indeed shorter. Consequently, lunar years are shorter. If you add up all 29.35 lunar days and multiply it by our usual 12 months, we have 352 days which is thirteen days shorter than our usual 365-day year. A lunar year has exactly 354.36 days, approximately eleven days shorter than one solar or Gregorian year.
Chinese Gender Calendar are formulated with the phases of the moon in mind. Scientists assert that the timing of the moon synchronizes with the secretion of a woman’s hormones that affect her menstrual period and sexual drive. It also turns out that a woman’s secretions make it viable for babies to be either male or female. Chinese Gender Calendar utilizes this knowledge – that the phases of the moon can influence a baby’s sex.
Another useful peculiarity associated with the use of Chinese Gender Calendar is the scientific belief that it is actually the woman that determines the sex of children. The study of medicine tells us that it is a man’s sperm that defines the sex of a baby because it carries the X (male) or Y (female) chromosome. However, more recent medical studies have found out that a woman’s ovum membrane determines sex by “selecting” to be fertilized by either X or Y sperm which is very similar to ancient Chinese Gender Calendar knowledge that it is the woman who chooses the sex of the child.
Another theory suggests that the acidity of a woman’s secretions determines the sex of your baby. A woman’s acidic secretions synchronizes with her menstrual period. These acidic secretions maintains a woman’s healthy vaginal condition, promotes and environment that is conducive for normal flora at the vagina and destroys harmful microorganisms and sperm. There are days in a woman’s period where the pH level of her secretions promote sperm viability and other days where the vaginal condition is not conducive for sperm viability. According to this theory and the use of Chinese Gender Calendar, this acidic condition varies from lunar month to lunar month depending on a woman’s age and health condition.
The most credible documented study so far is by Eugen Jonas, a Czech gynecologist specializing in cosmobiology. In the 1950’s, with the use of scientifically-controlled tests on women using astrological methods like the Chinese Gender Calendar, he found that astronomical configurations like the angles of the sun and the moon, certain planetary configurations and the position or phase of the moon affected the fertility of a woman, the viability of sperm and the unborn child’s sex which is very similar to what Chinese Gender Calendar assert.
