Guide to the 2022 Zodiac: As the saying goes, "In 2022, two dragons will control water, three snakes will be beginning of spring, and five sheep will be Tai". What do you mean?

There are many interesting year predictions in ancient rural proverbs. People can predict the good luck in the new year and the bumper harvest in the coming year according to heavenly stems and earthly branches and his zodiac, which shows that people want to cast a good omen. For example, the zodiac is the object of people's prediction, and the old saying of zodiac prediction is widely spread.

Many old people say that old people, especially those in rural areas, like to watch the old yellow calendar, which is very rich in content, and the folk culture in the old yellow calendar has been passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, if farmers want to know whether the next year is good or not, they should take out the old yellow calendar and look at it in combination with the zodiac.

There is an old saying in the countryside that 2022 is "two dragons control water, three snakes make spring, and five sheep open Thailand". How to understand this sentence?

When we say that several dragons control the water, several snakes beginning of spring and several sheep make peace, it depends on the date of heavenly stems and earthly branches and the zodiac. Because we celebrate dry branch day to determine how many dragons, snakes and sheep there are.

First of all, we must make clear the ten-day trunk and the twelve-day branch. Ten-day cadres: A, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Ren and Gui. Twelve earthly branches: Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu and Hai. The branch day consists of heavenly stems and earthly branches. According to the old calendar algorithm, there is a number of branches every day. For example, we say that the first day of the first month in 2022 is Xinmao Day, and there are such different dry days every day in the lunar calendar.

Like dragons, snakes and sheep, they all belong to one of the twelve zodiac signs, so it is necessary to understand the relationship between the twelve zodiac signs and the branches. We say that the twelve earthly branches and the twelve zodiac signs are fixed and combined with each other, such as: mouse, ugly cow, yinhu, hairy rabbit, dragon, snake, huma, sheep, monkey, pheasant, dog and sea pig.

When we say a few dragons, snakes and sheep, we just want to find the corresponding dry branch day. For example, we found that the dragon is Chenri, the snake is Siri, and the sheep is Siri.

What time is the standard?

According to the regulations, from the first day of the first month to the 12 day of the twelfth month of the first month, there will be corresponding zodiac signs every day, that is, there are several dragons to control water, several snakes to beginning of spring, and several sheep to open Thailand.

In 2022, the first day of the first month is Xinmao Day, the second day is Renchen Day, the third day is Guisi Day, and the fifth day is B Day, so Chen belongs to dragons and snakes belong to sheep, so there are "two dragons to control water, three snakes to make spring, and five sheep to open Thailand".

Two dragons control water: we say that dragons are less waterlogged, and dragons are more dependent. More dragons mean that it is a dry year, and less dragons mean that there is enough rain. In our folk culture, the dragon in the sky is in charge of rain and dew, and the dragon is in the rain. The rainfall in Yi Long shows that there is too much rain, while the water control by two dragons shows that two dragons are going to rain, so the rain is still abundant.

Beginning of spring: Now, snakes are beneficial insects, but some have turned them into "dragons", so they are also very popular. We say there are not many snakes in spring, but snakes like hot weather, which means it will be very cold in spring, only three snakes come out, and cold snakes can't hibernate. Does this mean there will be cold weather in spring?

Wuyang Kaitai: In the eyes of ordinary people, sheep is a very auspicious animal. Sheep can be seen in the bronzes handed down from generation to generation, which shows the ancient people's love for sheep. In this way, because sheep and "auspiciousness" are auspicious, we say that five sheep are lucky, which means that there are many blessings in the Spring Festival.

The above is about the zodiac in 2022, and it is about the sharing of the zodiac. After reading the lunar calendar 65438+20221October 9, I hope this will help everyone!
