	Jiàn (Erect, 建), also called Jianxing, is a six-star asterism ~~belongs~~ to the Shi tradition and is preserved with a determinative-star coordinate in the Shi star catalogue quoted in the ''Kaiyuan zhanjing''. It lies north of Nandou and corresponds to part of modern [[Sagittarius]]. Modern reconstructions usually take ξ² Sgr as the determinative star and identify the other members with ο Sgr, π Sgr, d Sgr, ρ¹ Sgr, and υ Sgr. It was in existence at least by the 4th century BCE.

It was later extended to mean “to establish,” “to ~~institute~~,” or “to ~~construct~~.”		'''Etymology:''' The primary meaning of ''jian'' 建 is “to set up” or “to erect", as in raising a wooden pole or a flagstaff.

	'''Lunar Mansion/ ~~WInter~~ Solstice.''' During the Warring States, Qin, and Han periods, Jian was used in one tradition as the eighth of the Twenty-Eight Lodges. At the same time, there also existed a parallel system in which this position was occupied by Dou 斗, and it was this latter system that gradually became the more widely accepted one in later periods. Since the region of Jian was regarded as the place where the Sun was located at the winter solstice, and since the winter solstice served as a crucial starting point for astronomical computation, Jian acquired special calendrical significance. It was therefore described as “the gate through which yin and yang begin and end” and as “the origin of the harmonic (which corresponds closed to calendar) and the calendar.”		'''Lunar Mansion/Winter Solstice.'''

	Because Jian lies close to the ecliptic, the space between Nandou and Jian was understood as a route along which the Sun, Moon, and Five Planets travelled. For this reason, Jian was also known by such names as “Celestial Pass” (''Tianguan'' 天关) or “the metropolitan pass of Heaven” (''tian zhi duguan'' 天之都关).<ref>''Kaiyuan zhanjing'', j. 65</ref> A ''guan'' 关 was both a node of movement and a point of frontier control; consequently, Jian further came to evoke the symbolic world of flags, drums, and horses—objects associated with military mobilization and command. Its alternative name “Celestial Flag” (''Tianqi'' 天旗) may also be related to the original sense of ''jian'' as “raising” or “setting up” a banner. In sum, because of its long history and its important celestial position, Jian accumulated a rich range of meanings. The convergence and layering of these cultural associations transformed it into a highly conceptual asterism, one that brought together celestial location, planetary motion, calendrical beginnings, routes of passage, and the military-administrative order of the state. It may thus be understood as a symbol of order combining calendrical, transit, and politico-military meanings.
