[Surya Prajnapti Sutra]
**1. Q:** In these five years, on which day of the full moon does the sun enter the first constellation?
**A:** The sun enters the last constellation on the full moon day. From that full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the first constellation is 9/240 of the circle. The sun enters the first constellation on that full moon day.
**2. Q:** In these five years, on which day of the full moon does the sun enter the second constellation?
**A:** The sun enters the first constellation on the full moon day. From that full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the second constellation is 9/240 of the circle. The sun enters the second constellation on that full moon day.
**3. Q:** In these five years, on which day of the full moon does the sun enter the third constellation?
**A:** The sun enters the second constellation on the full moon day. From that full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the third constellation is 9/240 of the circle. The sun enters the third constellation on that full moon day.
**4. Q:** In these five years, on which day of the full moon does the sun enter the twelfth constellation?
**A:** The sun enters the third constellation on the full moon day. From that full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the twelfth constellation is 84/240 of the circle. The sun enters the twelfth constellation on that full moon day.
Thus, in this way, from each full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the sun enters each constellation on the corresponding full moon day.
**5. Q:** In these five years, on which day of the full moon does the sun enter the last constellation?
**A:** The sun enters the last constellation on the full moon day. From that full moon day, the circle is divided into 240 parts, and the last constellation is 27/240 of the circle.
**1. '84/240'**
The twelfth full moon is nine days after the third full moon.
Then, 9 is multiplied by 9, resulting in 84.
**2.** The last full moon of the western era is the 62nd full moon.
From that point, the circle is divided into 240 parts.
The sun enters each constellation after 9/240 of the circle.
Then, 9 is multiplied by 62, resulting in 558.
Then, 558 is divided by 240, resulting in 2.325.
This means that the sun completes 2 full circles and enters the 33rd constellation.
