In the year of the ox, the "ox" of the ox man turned to Gankun.

The year of the rat is full of disasters, and the home country is not easy. Everyone hopes that the Year of the Ox will be changed from "ox" to "dry". Maybe everyone thinks it's just a homophonic and auspicious word. As we all know, this statement has a long history.

In China's ancient classical literature, cows have a very high symbolic significance. The Book of Changes takes the divination of Gan and Kun as the commander-in-chief of all things, calling "Kun as an ox". Cow is the symbol of the earth bearing all things, that is, Kun Gua, because "Kun is as heavy as the earth, so it is also a cow."

The status of cattle is as important as heaven and earth. The ancients endowed the cow with divinity, believing that the cow has the attribute of "five elements" of fire and water in China, and is a symbol of good weather, national prosperity and people's safety. Therefore, people have reason to hope that the cow can turn Gan Kun around.

People are convinced that cows are spiritual and can go straight to heaven and earth, which has long been regarded as a message to communicate with heaven and earth. In the southwest minority areas of China, people need to make sacrifices to gods to avoid disasters or major events. Praying for the reversal of fate is a secular form, which has formed a unique national custom over time and has been passed down to this day.
