There are only 354 days in the lunar calendar. Why is there no leap month this year?

After 2020, many people feel much more relaxed. Because 2020 is of great significance to many people. Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, many people had to stay at home in isolation at the beginning of Gengzi. It can be said that they stayed at home for a long time before going out. Many people think that the Spring Festival in 2020 has no flavor of the year. Not only can they not have a family reunion dinner, they can't even visit relatives and friends. So everyone is full of expectations for 202 1. However, when you open the calendar, you find that the year of the lunar calendar is less than 365 days, only 354 days.

Some people are curious about this situation. Why is there no leap month in the lunar calendar this year? Astronomical experts explain this situation as follows: the coming year of happiness and ugliness is a normal year, with only 354 days in the whole year. Many people live in lunar and solar calendars every day, and sometimes they can't be converted. Everyone thinks that they usually read the solar calendar when they go to work or work, but they still pay attention to these lunar dates when they celebrate the New Year or their birthdays. So many people are curious when they see that the Year of the Ox is only 354 days. The China lunar calendar determines the date and month according to the change of the moon phase and cycle, and China also has 24 solar terms to determine the length of the whole year.

Their arrangement is regular, because there are not enough days in lunar1February and the duration of 24 solar terms is not enough, so if it is1March, it will be exceeded. Therefore, appropriate measures should be taken to increase leap months. A year with a leap month is called a lunar leap year, and if there is no leap month, it is called a lunar year. If it is a leap year in the lunar calendar, there are more than 380 days in a year, and if it is a normal year, there are more than 350 days in a year. Therefore, the coming Year of the Ox begins on February 12 and ends on February 65438+1October 3 1 2022. The boxer year we have experienced is a leap year. It is conceivable that this year's Lunar New Year has passed more than 380 days.

So for many people, 2020 is also a year full of memories and experiences. I hope the ugly year since 20021will bring a better life. In ancient China, chronology was used as the conversion of lunar calendar. There are ten branches and twelve branches, so they are used to represent the serial numbers of years, months and days. 60 years is a cycle. For the convenience of some farmers in ancient times, remember that 12 animals were specially designed to correspond to them.
