February 2 long head

I received a short message yesterday:

In February 2, long looked up,

Happiness and happiness have no head,

In the future, good things will continue,

Good luck.

Be careful when your money breaks your head,

With affection and affection,

Family reunion to white head,

A good sign is received.

 

I used to think it was long looked up in March 3. After receiving this short message, I argued with him. As a result, he asked me to cut my head, which made me even more confused.

 

I checked it out today. I really don't know much about this kind of customs and habits in ancient China.

 

Legend has it that every lunar February 2 is the day when the Dragon King, who is in charge of Yun Yu, raises his head. From then on, the rain will gradually increase. Therefore, this day is called " Spring Festival " . Widely spread in Northern China " In February 2, long looked up. The big warehouse was full and the small warehouse was full. " .

 

Every time Spring Festival arrives, most of the northern parts of China pick up water at the edge of the well or by the river with a lantern in every household this morning.Lighting, burning incense, serving. In the old days, people called this ceremony " Yin tianlong " . On this day, every household needs to eat noodles, fried oil cakes, and popcorn. " Pick leaders " , " Eat gentian " , " The golden beans blossom, the Dragon King rises to heaven, the Xingyun buyu, the grain fengdeng " To celebrate the celebration.

 

The source of the Spring Festival is a mythical story circulating in the north of China. Wu Zetian became the emperor and annoyed the Jade Emperor. He passed the command to the four seas Dragon King. He was not allowed to rain on the earth within three years. Soon, the Dragon King of Si Guan Tianhe listened to the cries of the people and looked at the miserable scenes of the starving people. He worried that the road would be cut off and would not obey the purpose of the Jade Emperor, causing a rain on the earth. The Jade Emperor learned that the king of the dragon was killed and put down in a great mountain:

 

Longwang's rainfall was a daily rule, and suffered from the fall of evil;

 

If you want to enter the Linglong Pavilion Again, unless the golden beans are blooming.

 

In order to save the Dragon King, people search for the blooming golden beans everywhere. In lunar February 2 of the second year, when people were turning over corn seeds, they thought that the corn was like a golden bean, fried with flowers, isn't it the golden bean blossom? In this case, all the households had popcorn, and the case was burned in the yard. " Jin Dou " . When Long Wang looked up and knew that the people had saved it, he shouted to the Jade Emperor: " The golden beans blossom. Let me go out! " When Yu Di saw the golden bean flower opened in the home courtyard of every household, he had to deliver an oracle message. Yu longwang returned to tianting and continued to provide cloud computing for the people. Since then, people have formed a habit. Every day of lunar February 2, people willPopcornEat.

 

In fact, after lunar February,"Rain Water"When the solar term comes, the light rain in winter is over, and the rainfall will gradually increase. This is the characteristic of the North China monsoon climate.
