This year, several dragons will control the water, and in 2023, several cows will plow the fields.

From the perspective of folklore, 2023 is the year of controlling water by dragons, and "controlling water by counting dragons" is decided according to the date of the first day of the first month of that year.

For example, the second day of the first month is called "Two Dragons Governing Water", the eighth day is called "Eight Dragons Governing Water", and so on. According to the understanding of the ancients, the more dragons, the less rainfall, and the less dragons, the more rainfall. There are also folks who say that "the dragon is too dry" and "the daughter-in-law eats too late".

Proverbs such as "more dragons depend, less dragons drown". The first "Morning Day" in 2023 appeared on the first day of the first month, which was called "Chen Geng Day".

Therefore, 2023 is the year of "Yilong Water Control". According to the method of the ancients, the precipitation may be more than normal.

In ancient times, science and technology were underdeveloped, and people did not have enough paper and pens to record information. More information is compiled into simple formulas or magical legends to facilitate people's spread. Several dragons are such a proverb, which is judged by time and proverbs in different years and different precipitation.
