What does Geng Yinfeng mean?

"Gengyin" is two concepts in the chronology of the ancient 60-year-old branch of China. Geng is the branch, representing gold, and Yin is the branch, representing the orientation of the East. When they meet, they symbolize prosperity. Therefore, it has also become an auspicious symbol, widely used in folk customs and cultural heritage.

In the traditional farming society of China, farming Yin Feng has a special meaning. On the "cloudy day" on the first day of the second lunar month, farmers usually offer sacrifices to their ancestors and land gods to pray for a bumper harvest, peace and happiness. At the same time, the fields and Woods will be cleared in the afternoon to prepare for the new year's farming and welcome the spring ploughing.

Besides farming customs, Geng Yinfeng has an important commemorative significance in the history of China. For example, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty ascended the throne on the first day in silver moon, Chen Geng (1730), so Geng Yinnian was called "an auspicious day to ascend the throne". For another example, the Xinhai Revolution of 19 1 1 was the year of Geng Yin, which was called "the change of Geng Yin" and became an important turning point in China's modern history.
