  • The planets have the nature of water and reflect light. The light pouring forth from the Sun does not always reach the Moon owing to the obstruction of the Earth itself—this is called "ànxū", a lunar eclipse. When happens with a planet an occultation; when the Moon passes across then there is a solar eclipse. (en)
  • The Sun is like fire and the Moon like water. The fire gives out light and the water reflects it. Thus the Moon's brightness is produced from the radiance of the Sun, and the Moon's darkness is due to the Sun being obstructed. The side which faces the Sun is fully lit, and the side which is away from it is dark. (en)
