I’ve never heard of that in the Japanese context but it seems it was adapted by the court from the Chinese system, as everything was.
That’s part of what makes the lunar calendar so confusing. I don’t think this is used in Japan anymore. Maybe in some religious tradition? But I doubt it.
It is interesting! Thanks for sharing
