The origin of the dragon's rise on February 2 nd
February 2nd, also known as Spring Festival and Farming Festival, is a traditional folk festival in China. A series of customs, such as eating Longxu Noodles and scraping the tap, make this spring festival warm.
"On February 2nd, the dragon looked up."
Folklore experts say that the so-called "dragon heads up" means that all insects begin to wake up after hibernation. There is a folk saying that "on February 2nd, dragons look up and scorpions and centipedes all come out".
In terms of solar terms, the first day of the second lunar month is between "rain", "fright" and "vernal equinox", and many places in China have begun to enter the rainy season. The ancients believed that this was due to the "dragon". The dragon occupies a high position in the minds of China people. It is not only an auspicious thing, but also the master of wind and rain. Therefore, there is a saying that "the dragon rises on February 2". Solemnly declare: the answer is for reference only, please don't be blindly superstitious.
