What does it mean to drive the dragon (Chen Bing) to the north?

"The worship of dragons (Chen Bing) is a saying in the Huangli calendar." "Chonglong" is a collision between the earth and the earth, which has an influence on people who belong to dragons. "Shabei" refers to a period of time that is not suitable for going north, and the specific explanation is as follows:

1. "Chong Long": The "Chong Long" in the Yellow Calendar is a collision of earthly branches, which has an influence on people belonging to dragons and belongs to the relationship of twelve earthly branches. According to heavenly stems and earthly branches's cycle, every six people have a collision relationship, so it is called "six reds". When the dragon hits the year, people belonging to the dragon may fail because of their subjective stubbornness and disobedience, but it is not necessarily a bad influence. They may also be proactive and smooth in their work.

2. "Shabei": The "Shabei" in the Huangli calendar refers to an evil god, and it is said in the Huangli calendar that it is not suitable for going north for a while. If we go to the north in Shabei for one day, there may be disaster. Shabeiri is a traditional belief. Ancient people in China thought that the northern god beast was Xuanwu, which was in charge of the movement of water in the five elements, and belonged to the water god, and was in charge of the water flow in the world, including the direction of all rivers, lakes, streams and gullies. Therefore, in the Gregorian calendar, it is considered that Shabeiri should not move northward to avoid offending the gods.

According to the above explanation, "Chonglong (Chen Bing) North" means that the earthly branch collided with the Dragon Man born in Chen Bing (1976) that day, and the location of exorcism was in the north, so the Dragon Man should not move northward on this day, so as not to affect his personal fortune.
