Can I move on February 2nd? Is there anything you can’t do on February 2?
"Dragon Raising its Head" is a traditional folk festival in my country. Every festival has certain taboos and customs. If done right, it will give people a psychological hint, but if done wrong, it will become a psychological burden on people. Therefore, we must be cautious in doing anything. Let's take a look at whether we can move on February 2? Is there anything you can’t do on February 2?Can I move on February 2nd?Lunar calendar time: February 2, Xinchou year, Xinmao month, Xinyou day, Gregorian calendar time: March 14, 2021 [According to the old almanac]Getting married, getting a license, repairing a grave, breaking ground, breaking house, getting married, Signing a contract, seeking medical treatment, marrying a son-in-law, and accepting a son-in-law [taboos in the old almanac] Moving, renovation, opening, moving into a new home, starting construction, breaking ground, Door installation, bed installation, travel, engagement, burial, beam raising, Opening a business, cooking, traveling, taking up a post, building, praying, Opening of business, livestock collection, marriage proposal, migration, house building, crowning, Auspicious gods to follow: Yu Yu, Chu Shen, Yu Tang, Ming Wei, Si Fei Ri, Tian Cheng.

Is there anything you can’t do on February 2?1. Don’t touch the needle and threadTry not to use needles or thread on the day of "February 2", otherwise you may accidentally hurt the "dragon's eyes". 2. Do not let the bucket touch the wellhead In ancient times, people used buckets to fetch water. On the second day of the second month, you have to be extra careful when fetching water. Be sure not to accidentally touch the eaves of the well with the bucket, otherwise you will damage the faucet. 3. Don’t use a roller The implication of this statement is that the roller or millstone will press down on the faucet and make it uncomfortable, so in order to make ourselves more comfortable, we should try not to touch such things. 4. Don’t eat noodles The noodles are shaped like "dragon whiskers" and it is very taboo to eat noodles on the second day of the second lunar month, especially in Beijing, Hebei and Henan. Especially eating "Dragon Beard Noodles", this is even more amazing. It is said that eating dragon whiskers on February 2 will anger the Dragon King and may lead to floods that year. But these are just legends, just listen to them. The legend of the dragon raising its headLegend 1Legend has it that King Yao's father Emperor Ku (Emperor Jun) had four queens: Jiang Yuan, Jian Di, Qing Du, and Chang Yi. Originally, Chang Yi had the lowest status, but since she gave birth to a son, everyone looked at her differently. Qingdu has always been worried about not having a son. Someone told her that praying for a child at the Goddess Temple is very effective, and as long as you are sincere, there is nothing you can't achieve. Qingdu did as the witch said. After dinner on the Lantern Festival, he went to the temple to place offerings, then kowtowed three times respectfully, put his hands together, and prayed to the gods to give him a child. Let me explain this from two perspectives. One year there was a severe drought and the people lived in hardship. There was a red dragon in the sky. When he saw the miserable conditions of the people on earth, he felt pity and secretly made it rain. When the Jade Emperor found out about this, he suppressed the red dragon under a mountain. The people pleaded for the Red Dragon, and the Jade Emperor said, "Unless the golden beans bloom." On the second day of the second month, an old lady came from nowhere and kept shouting, "Golden beans for sale!" People were very puzzled, and when they bought some home, they found that they were actually yellow beans. When these soybeans were fried in the pan, they crackled and bloomed. When the Jade Emperor found out, he had no choice but to release the red dragon and banish him to the mortal world. After Qingdu prayed for a child from the Goddess Temple, he looked forward to good news every day. One night, she dreamed of a red dragon following her, and from then on, she became pregnant. On the second day of the second month of the following year, there were lightning and thunder, and then the sun shone brightly. A golden light shone in the yard, and a child was born. He was named Fangxun, who later became King Yao. Fangxun was smart and clever, and had been loved since childhood. After he grew up and became an emperor, he would farm with the people on the second day of the second lunar month every year. The custom of emperors tilling the fields was thus passed down. During the Chinese New Year, the woodblock New Year picture sold at the market, "The Emperor Riding the Golden Bull", originated from this. There are many different opinions about the birth of King Yao. Later generations made up a story: Golden beans bloomed and the red dragon raised its head. On the second day of the second month, King Yao was happily born. Legend II Legend has it that the Dragon Raising Head Festival originated in the era of Fuxi, who "emphasized agriculture and farming". On the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar every year, "the empress sent meals and the emperor personally plowed the fields", taking care of one acre and three mu of land by himself. Later, Huangdi, Tang Yao, Yu Shun and Xia Yu all followed the example of the former king. By the time of King Wu of Zhou, this traditional practice was not only continued, but also implemented as an important national policy. On the second day of the second lunar month every year, a grand ceremony was held in which all civil and military officials were required to personally till one acre and three mu of land. It is said that this is the origin of the Dragon Raising Head Festival. |
