Moon phases, ingresses and stations from the tropical zodiac. Solar terms are the 24 Chinese jieqi. Twelve of them turn the BaZi month pillar, which is why the Chinese calendar does not begin its months on the first. Sidereal positions use the Lahiri ayanamsa. The universal day is the numerological reduction of the date itself, so it is the same for everyone.
