What are the birth years of sheep, dogs and pigs?

1, corresponding to the year of the dog: 19 10, 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958,1. Once every 12 years.

2. Corresponding to the Year of the Sheep: 1907,19,193, 1943, 1955,1. Once every 12 years.

3. Year of the Pig:191year, 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959,/kloc-0. Once every 12 years.

Judgment method, taking pigs as an example-

When the AD number is divided by 12, the year with the remainder of 3 is the year of the pig.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 3.

For example: 2007÷ 12= quotient 167, and the remainder is 3. So 2007 is the year of the pig.

Note that the above is only a rough correspondence, because the Gregorian calendar and the elephant trunk calendar in China, which are widely used in the world, are two different calendars. The year of the pig, the year of the sheep and the year of the dog are counted from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the year of the zodiac is attached to the year of the trunk branch, and the year of the trunk branch is the year method of the trunk branch calendar. The same is true of the official almanac of past dynasties (that is, the Yellow Calendar). There is no doubt that the lunar calendar only uses branches to mark the year, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve.

Extended data:

1, Year of the Pig

China has had tribes with pigs as totems since ancient times. According to textual research, the pig portrait on Hemudu pottery, the pig pattern on Banpo pottery and the pig shape in Shang and Zhou bronze culture are all relics of pig worship.

A stone pig is enshrined in the main room of Hongshan Ruins Group in Liaoning Province, which is centered on the Goddess Temple. The front foot of the pig is claw-shaped, and it has begun to change into the image of a dragon, which is called "pig dragon". The descendants of the Chinese people are called "descendants of the dragon". According to research, pigs account for a large proportion in the combined image of dragons.

Even today, pig culture is still very popular, such as Song of Pig, Song of Swine Flu, Crazy Pig, Three Little Pigs, Pig Toughness and What is Page. In folk arts and crafts, there are also many pig shapes, such as mud pig in Xun County, Henan Province, brown woven pig in Sichuan Province, cloth pig in Luochuan County, Shaanxi Province, porcelain pig in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, etc ... All these represent intelligence, courage, wealth and luck.

2. Year of the Sheep culture

Sheep is one of the earliest animals that humans began to hunt and domesticate. The traditional culture of China has been closely related to sheep since its birth. According to the latest archaeological findings, pottery sheep have appeared in Peiligang Cultural Site in Xinzheng, Henan Province about 8,000 years ago and Hemudu Cultural Site in Yuyao, Zhejiang Province about 7,000 years ago ... It can be said that the "sheep gene" has almost penetrated into all aspects of China traditional culture. In the process of Chinese civilization, the role of "sheep" even surpassed that of "dragon", and the ancestors of Chinese culture, Fuxi and Yandi, have a "blood relationship" with "sheep". Fuxi and Shennong in Huang San were the first to take "sheep" as their tribal totem.

3. Year of Dog Culture

Dogs, inspired by their sense of smell and hearing, have sharp teeth and the idiom "canine teeth meet". The tongue is long and thin. Hair has black, white, gray and other colors. Ears are like wolves. It is the earliest domesticated poultry, which can be trained as a police dog, help people hunt and help their owners look after their homes, so dogs are loyal friends of human beings.

Yao people have a festival called Wang Pan Festival. During the Wang Pan Festival, the Wang Pan Dance Team will dance and sing the song of Wang Pan. Wang Pan dance imitates the shape of a dog. Totem costumes are still preserved in some areas, and dog marks can be found in their sacrificial activities and literature records.

There is also a nation that does not eat dog meat, that is, Manchu. It is said that Nurhachi once ran to a family's stove to hide from the enemy. When the enemy saw him in the stove, they added firewood to the stove and tried to burn him to death. Who knows that after the enemy left, a dog came running. It covered its fur with water and put out the fire repeatedly, and finally put it out. At last Nurhachi was saved, but the dog was burned to death. After Nurhachi ascended the throne, in order to commemorate the dog's saving his life, he ordered the dog to protect the dog and not eat dog meat.
