Jim Posted August 5, 2020 at 06:59 AM Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 at 06:59 AM According to this they'd be a monkey, it was a 甲申猴年 https://www.smxs.com/mingli/bzzs_bzsm/99528.html https://baike.sogou.com/v7697839.htm?fromTitle=1584年 Apparently lunar new year was Feb 12 in the Western calendar that year so that should be right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calibre2001 Posted August 6, 2020 at 05:41 AM Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 at 05:41 AM 12 March 1584 corresponds to the 1st Day of the Second Month of the Lunar Calendar. http://wannianli.fkcha.com/year_1584_month_3.html In Chinese genealogy this date of birth would be recorded as 生於萬曆十二年甲申二月初一日 i.e. "born on the first day of the second month in the 12th year of Wan Li era" Wan Li is the reign period for Emperor Shen Zong 明神宗 during the Ming Dynasty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
