What year is 1999?

As of March, 20021year, I was 22 years old and my birth year was 202 1-22 =1999. 1999 The human born is a rabbit.

The hairy rabbit, one of the 12 zodiac animals, is the fourth earthly branch. The rabbit looks docile and lovely, innocent and lively, free and active, calm and obedient, natural and graceful, careful and meticulous, and the brilliance of Shi Mao Yutu Moon has not faded.

The Year of the Rabbit is counted from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the year of the zodiac is attached to the calendar year of the main branch, and the calendar year of the main branch is the calendar year method of the main branch. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (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.

Lunar calendar and trunk calendar are two different calendars, which are different in the starting point of a year, the division rules of months and the number of days in each year. Due to the use of the Gregorian calendar after the Republic of China, many people, including a few so-called experts, lack calendar knowledge, so the two are often confused.

Extended data

Judgment method:

The Year of the Rabbit is the year when the AD number is divided by 12 and the remainder is 7.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 7.

For example: 20 1 1÷ 12= quotient 167, and the remainder is 7, then 20 1 1 is the year of the rabbit.

Note that the above is only a rough correspondence, because the Gregorian calendar and the elephant trunk calendar in China, which are widely used in the world, are two different calendars. Gregorian calendar starts from 65438+ 10/month 1, while lunar calendar starts from the date when beginning of spring built silver moon. Generally speaking, that day in beginning of spring is equivalent to February 4th or 5th of the Gregorian calendar every year.

Rabbit is the fourth of the 12 zodiac animals. It is associated with the twelve branches of the earth, so twelve o'clock in the day is also called "rabbit time"-from five to seven in the morning.

Speaking of rabbit, the Chinese zodiac, there is an interesting legend of "rabbit-cow race" circulating among the people.

According to legend, rabbits and cows are neighbors. They get along well and call each other brothers. Cows live by hard work, rabbits live by cleverness and ability, and they all live well.

One day, the rabbit who is good at long-distance running shows off in front of the bull: "I am the champion of long-distance running in the animal kingdom, and no one can outrun me!" " The bull modestly asked the rabbit for tips on long-distance running, but the rabbit proudly shook his head and said, "The champion of long-distance running relies on innate quality, and learning can't be learned. "In addition, if you run lightly, you will never run fast."

Niu Xin was half cold to the rabbit, but he was not convinced. From then on, scalpers began to practice long-distance running. With the strength of an indomitable bull, the bull finally became a pair of "iron feet". I don't know how tired I am for days and nights.

On the day when the Jade Emperor ranked the zodiac, according to the rules, whoever arrived first was allowed to be the zodiac. The cow and the rabbit agreed that the rooster would get up at the first crow and go straight to the Heavenly Palace to compete for the zodiac.

When the cock crowed for the first time, when the bull got up, the rabbit had run away alone. The rabbit ran for a long time, turned around and hugged it, but there was no sign of any animals. Rabbit thought, I got up the earliest and ran the fastest today, that is, I slept. The first name of this zodiac is mine, too. So it fell asleep on the grass.

Although the bull lags behind, it is driven by its tenacious endurance and steel-like foot strength. While the rabbit was still sleeping, it ran to the heavenly palace first.

A rush of footsteps woke the rabbit. When I opened my eyes, it turned out that the tiger ran past like a gust of wind. Now the rabbit is in a hurry and rushes to catch up. It's a pity that we are a step behind the tiger. Because there is a mouse crouching between the horns of the cow, the rabbit is only ranked fourth, and the top three are mouse, cow and tiger.

Although the rabbit became a Chinese zodiac, it was shameful after all and lost to his sarcastic old cow. When he came back, he moved his home to a hole in the ground, and the rabbit would learn a lesson. Do not believe me, today you will have another "bull-rabbit race" or "tortoise-rabbit race", and the winner will definitely be the rabbit.

From 5: 00 to 7: 00 in the morning (that is, "Shi Mao"), the sun has not appeared, and the brilliance of the moon has not completely retired. The Jade Rabbit is the representative of the moon and the only animal in the myth of the Moon Palace, so Shi Mao matches the rabbit.
