dankodes* I found the best option for the weekly reminder emails, via Gmail. The external service options are more involved than our purposes require. Does anyone know anything about how to arrange an Apps Script? Basically all it has to do is tell ten people, on Saturdays, to come and get their juice/poems.
Until someone knows what to do there, I'll send out manual messages weekly. If you'd like to receive these and are not getting them, please let me know.
* If you haven't read it yet, chapter one, on tetrasyllabic shi poetry, in How to Read Chinese Poetry is hugely useful for the Book of Odes, imo.
* IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS WHO MIGHT LIKE TO JOIN or have other ideas, please let me know on this post.
* Every week I search the poems' English results to see if I can find any scholarship or neat bits and pop the results in Resources. Here is this week's collection.
* One of our members is doing posts on the foundations and development of wuxia. Worth checking out!
**NEXT BATCH APRIL 19.**

Re: 193. 十月之交 - Shi Yue Zi Jiao
Anyway, Baike notes that although there was someone who thought it was about some other king, it's usually considered to be about Zhou You wang. The solar eclipse mentioned here was on Sept 6, 776 BC, the earliest recorded solar eclipse.
The natural disasters were occurring in the northern Shaanxi region, which is the birthplace of the Zhou people so was considered to be a serious warning to the people about the harmful governance of Zhou You wang.
