What is behind the spring jump?

Spring hit six or nine heads, and Yang Guang wanted to look up.

Beginning of spring is the third solar term after the winter solstice (winter solstice, slight cold and severe cold), which is generally a solar term of 15 days, so "beginning of spring" is the 46th day after the winter solstice (including the day after the winter solstice), so beginning of spring is generally on the first day of June 9th, that is, "beginning of spring hits six or nine heads". There is also a saying that beginning of spring's time is not fixed and will change, so there is a phenomenon of "beginning of spring hitting five Kyubi no Youko". On the last day of May 9th, when spring begins, it is called "Spring to May 9th (end)".

The most important beginning of spring custom in Jinan folk custom is to welcome the "Spring God". In the past, there was a spring temple near Dongguan Street, which enshrined the ancient spring god. Every day before the spring, people will prepare local cows or paper cows in front of the Spring Temple and put persimmons, red dates and other foods in their bellies. When the time comes, the county magistrate will lead the people to incense the "spring god", and then.

According to the Tokyo Dream Record, the day before the beginning of spring, officials in Kaifeng sent spring cattle to the palace, and the emperor sent people to whip Spring. Then put the spring cattle in front of the yamen, and the government will whip them. From morning till night, passers-by can whip spring cattle, which means urging them to work hard. Old calendars are often printed with "a picture of a wild god in spring".

"When you hit spring cattle, you should talk at the same time and say the words' one dozen good weather, two dozen fertile fields, and three dozen peaceful countries and people'. After that, you must smash or incinerate the spring cattle. When the food packed in the cow's stomach in advance will fall to the ground one by one, people will scramble to eat luck. "In ancient times, it was an agricultural society, and the official took the lead in holding a ceremony to welcome the' Spring God' to show the importance of agricultural production.

At about the beginning of spring, it is a good time to cultivate the land. There are cows walking everywhere, so Yang Guang wants to look up. Others say that planting the land well and expecting a bumper harvest is "beating Yang Guangtou".

Others say that "every family in Kyubi no Youko pulls a pig's leg five times in spring, and every family sells old cows six or nine times in spring". It is cold in winter, and people hope to have spring and warm weather before June 9. If it doesn't happen until the first day of June 9, it means that the weather is cold and not suitable for spring ploughing. So hitting six or nine heads in spring means that this year is not good, and it may be a disaster. Yang guang will look up and do evil, so in the end, every family will sell old cows.
