What is the solar term for the dragon to look up?
Dragon heads up every year on the second day of the second lunar month. Legend has it that this is the day when dragons look up. It is a traditional festival in urban and rural areas of China.
Celebrate the "Dragon Head Festival" to show respect for the dragon and pray for rain so that God can help ensure a bumper harvest. It is said that Yao Wang was born on February 2nd.
In southern areas such as Hakka, it is the birthday of the land father-in-law, which is called "land birthday". In order to "warm his life", some places have the custom of holding a "land meeting": every household raises funds to celebrate the birthday of the land god, burns incense and sacrifices at the land temple, beats gongs and drums and sets off firecrackers. At the same time, the northern region also has the custom of eating pig's head meat and having a haircut (cutting the "tap") on holidays.
