What is the year of the dog?

Year of the dog:

20 18? 2006 1994

1982? 1970 1958

1946? 1934? 1922

In China culture, dogs belong to one of the 12 Zodiacs, ranking 1 1 among the 12 Zodiacs.

The year of the dog is counted from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the year of the zodiac is attached to the calendar of the trunk and branch, and the calendar of the trunk and branch is the calendar of the trunk and branch. The same is true of the official almanac (that is, the Yellow Calendar). There is no doubt that the lunar calendar only uses branches to mark the year, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve.

The Year of the Dog is one of the twelve zodiac signs in China, and Xu is the representative among the twelve branches. In a year, Xu Yue is September, which is a collection season. At this time, Shan Ye is lonely and lonely. This is a landscape before winter. The direction is west-northwest and belongs to the dry palace. In a day, it means 7: 00 pm to 9: 00 pm, which is the time when the night spreads and the lights are on.

Judgment method of the year of the dog:

The year when the advertising number is divided by 12 and the remainder is 2.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 2.

For example: 20 18

2018 ÷12 =168, leaving 2. The quotient is 168, and the remainder is 2. So 20 18 is the year of the dog.

20 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, the year of the dog before 2006 and the year of the dog after 20 14 years are 20 18 and 2030 respectively. Please note that the above is only a rough correspondence, because the Gregorian calendar and the trunk calendar in China, which are widely used in the world, are two different calendars.

The Gregorian calendar begins with 65438+1 October1,while the dry calendar begins with the date when beginning of spring built silver moon. Generally speaking, this day in beginning of spring is equivalent to February 4th or 5th of the Gregorian calendar every year.
