Why is the Dragon Boat Festival holiday late this year?Due to the leap month, the Dragon Boat Festival comes a little later this year."Leap April" is relatively rare <br /> Astronomical experts said that as a calendar phenomenon, "leap April" is relatively rare, usually occurring once every 8 or 11 years, and at most once every 38 years. In the 21st century, there are a total of eight years with a leap April, the most recent being 2012 (the year of Renchen), and the next one being 2058 (the year of Wuyin). Shi Zhicheng, a member of the Chinese Astronomical Society, explained that the leap month appears in the lunar calendar because the traditional lunar calendar adopted by China for thousands of years is actually a solar-lunar calendar, which takes into account both the solar tropical year that is directly related to the sun, and the lunar new and full moons that are related to the phase changes of the moon. The average length of a synodic month is 29.5306 days, and the total length of 12 synodic months is 354 or 355 days, which is about 11 days different from the tropical year (about 365.25 days). In three years, the total length is more than one month. The method of adjustment is to arrange 13 months in some years, with two identical months, which is called "leap year". The rules for "intercalary months" are based on the 24 solar terms. The lunar calendar uses twelve solar terms as symbols for the twelve months, that is, each month has a certain solar term. There were different ways to arrange the leap month in the lunar calendar in ancient times, but starting from the Han Dynasty, a leap month method was gradually formed, whereby the month that does not contain the middle solar term is called the leap month of the previous month. The "leap April" in the Lunar New Year of the Gengzi Rat is the leap month of the previous month, April. There is only the "Mangzhong" solar term in that month, and the "Summer Solstice" solar term falls on the first day of the fifth lunar month. Therefore, this year's Dragon Boat Festival is the latest in this century. Introduction to Dragon Boat FestivalThe Dragon Boat Festival falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar every year. According to the "Jingchu Sui Shi Ji", because people climb high places in midsummer when the sun is in the sky, and May is midsummer, its first noon is the day for climbing high places in the sky, so the fifth day of May is also called the "Dragon Boat Festival." In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Muri Festival, May Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Bathing Orchid Festival", etc.The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional cultural festival popular in China and other countries in the Chinese cultural circle. The Dragon Boat Festival originated in China. It was originally a totem sacrifice festival held by tribes who worshipped the dragon totem in the ancient Baiyue region (the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the area to the south). Before the Spring and Autumn Period in the Baiyue region, there was a custom of holding tribal totem sacrifices in the form of dragon boat races on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Later, because the poet Qu Yuan from the Chu State (now Hubei) during the Warring States Period committed suicide by jumping into the Miluo River with a stone in his arms on that day, the rulers used the Dragon Boat Festival as a festival to commemorate Qu Yuan in order to establish a label of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism; some areas also use the term "Dragon Boat Festival" to commemorate Wu Zixu and Cao E. The Dragon Boat Festival is known as one of the four major traditional festivals of the Han Chinese, along with the Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival. |
