Chinese zodiac dragon and snake

Marriage means that the Lunar New Year is coming. I wish you all a happy new year, and I also received blessings from the official media. I have noticed that many media regard New Year's Eve as the day of the Year of the Ox. Is it right or wrong? Because it violates China's Zodiac algorithm.

As we all know, the 12 zodiac is also called the Zodiac, which is a combination of China and 12 earthly branches. Zodiac 12 kinds of animals, including rats, cows, tigers, rabbits, dragons, snakes, horses, sheep, monkeys, chickens, dogs and pigs. However, 12 earthly branches are difficult to popularize, so the ancients thought of using animals to represent earthly branches, that is, the zodiac.

With the development of history, the Chinese zodiac has gradually integrated into the concept of common prosperity and mutual restraint. As a folk cultural figure with a long history, it has left a large number of intangible cultural heritages depicting the image and symbolic significance of the zodiac. But how are the zodiac animals divided?

China Purple Mountain Observatory is a modern calendar editing unit. It supports the first day of the first month as the beginning of the year. Therefore, it is considered that the zodiac is calculated according to the lunar calendar, so most people now calculate the zodiac according to the lunar calendar. It is precisely because of our support and because the official lunar calendar, as the starting point of the zodiac, runs counter to many customs. For example, beginning of spring, the first solar term in 24 solar terms, is still used as the dividing standard, which has caused many controversies.

Professor Ye Chunsheng, vice chairman of Chinese Folklore Society, professor of Chinese Department of the University and a famous folklorist, thinks that the zodiac should be based on beginning of spring. He reminded the public that the zodiac began in the beginning of spring, not the first day of the first month, which is only the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the zodiac should be based on the beginning of spring in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar. The Chinese character "",regarded as the head of the group classics, also takes beginning of spring as the watershed of the zodiac.

Now many things handed down by the ancients are gradually abandoned. How many modern children can know all the 24 solar terms? Knowing that eating jiaozi on the winter solstice, eating stove candy at the age of 23 is good enough. So, I hope everyone will pass on the correct common sense things. How to calculate the ecliptic there?

The above is related to marriage, and it is about the sharing of the zodiac. I read the 12 Chinese zodiac five-element table. I hope this will help everyone!
