<WL>晨 [chén] (早晨 zǎochen) morning@@; (HDZ:) (SW: 䢅: 早昧爽…辰時…) 早晨; 鸡啼报晓; (星名) (SW:) 曟: (星宿名) 房星 (房宿); 二十八宿; 辰: 辰时
From 日 () ‘sun’ and 辰 chén, which is the name of the two-hour period between 7 and 9 in the morning.
+
The character 晨 (11 strokes) is an old form, used as an abbrev. of another old form 䢅 (14 strokes), replacing the upper component 𦥑 (7 strokes) with 日 (4 strokes).
晨 chén is etymologically the same word as 辰 chén, written with 日 ‘sun’ added for emphasis.
+
Note: 晨 conflates two old characters formerly distinguished as ⑴ 䢅 chén ‘morning/dawn’, vs. ⑵ 晨 chén ‘Scorpio/Antares’; both were formerly also wr. 辰.
 +
The Shuōwén Seal form of 䢅(􀝸) chén ‘morning/dawn’ combines 𦥑(􀝵) jú (claws, as in 萬), and 辰(􂥳) chén ‘(tail of) Scorpio/Antares’ (phonosemantic); the Great Fire Star in the heart of the Scorpion was harbinger of spring/dawn; formerly also wr. 辰 (辰時 chénshí ‘morning’).
 +
Note: In 䢅(􀝸) the component 𦥑(􀝵) jú (claws) is that of 虿/蠆/𧔱(􂔾𦹌𧍣) chài ‘scorpion’, and 万/萬(􂤤𥝅) wàn ‘myriad’; cf. 农/農(􀝹䢉) nóng ‘agriculture’.
 +
The Shuōwén Seal form of (􁊅) chén ‘Scorpio/Antares’ combines 日 rì ‘sun/star’ (as in 星/曐), and (􂥳) chén ‘Scorpio/Antares’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. 曟(􁊄), with 晶(􁉾) ‘stars’ (as in 星/曐).
 +
Note: The anc. astronym was variously wr. 曟(􁊄􁊅晨), 䢅(􀝸), 辰(􂥳) chén ‘Scorpio/Antares’ (a.k.a. 大火, 辰星, 商星; 氐房心尾, 氐宿, 房宿, 心宿, 尾宿); cf. 辰, 震 (☳䷲).
 +
Compare: 农/農(􀝹䢉) nóng ‘agriculture’.
