What should I do on the second day of the second month of 2020 to bring good luck?The first auspicious moment: gathering dragon energy <br /> In the morning at the hour of Mao (between 5 and 7 o'clock), go out and face the east and take six deep breaths. Meditate on a ball of green energy going down from the Baihui point on the top of your head to the Dantian, filling your internal organs. The whole ball of green energy will wrap your whole body. Then walk a hundred steps towards the east. When you meet pedestrians on the road, you should smile and greet them. This can attract wealth and prosperity, and is the best luck.The second auspicious day: shaving the dragon's head <br /> The second day of the second lunar month is the day when the hibernating dragon ascends to heaven. People believe that shaving one's head on this day will bring good luck and fortune. A haircut for children is called a "happy head" and it takes advantage of the auspicious time when the dragon raises its head to bless the children to grow up healthily and become successful when they grow up; a haircut for adults means bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, hoping to bring good omens and good luck. Therefore, the folk proverb says, "If you shave the dragon's head on the second day of the second month, you will have a good spirit throughout the year." On this day, every barber shop is crowded with customers and business is booming. In addition, there is a saying among the people that "getting a haircut in the first month of the lunar calendar will cause your uncle to die", so many people do not go to the barber shop in the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, and the ban is not lifted until the second day of the second month. On the second day of the second lunar month, every barber shop is crowded with customers and business is booming. According to textual research, the reason for not shaving one's head in the first month of the lunar year was to "remember the past". The first month of the year is the beginning of the year, like the morning of a day. People don't shave their heads for one month in the first lunar month to commemorate the tradition. The idea of "missing the old times" has been used for so long that it was mistakenly written as "dead uncle". The third auspicious day: eating dragon food <br /> On February 2, the dragon raises its head, so it is natural to eat some traditional dragon-related food. This auspicious meal is a good start for the new year, so most of the food on this day is named after the dragon. Eating spring pancakes is called "eating dragon scales", eating noodles is called "holding dragon whiskers", eating rice is called "eating dragon seeds", eating wontons is called "eating dragon eyes", eating dumplings is called "eating dragon ears", cooking noodles and wontons together is called "dragon holding beads", eating pig heads is called "eating dragon heads", and eating scallion pancakes is called "tearing dragon skin". There is also a custom of "dragon raising its head and eating pig's head" on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar. People are buying pig heads in hopes of a good omen for the new year. These customs embody people’s good wishes to pray for the dragon’s blessing, good weather, and a good harvest. The fourth auspicious event: releasing dragon lanterns <br /> The Yellow River Delta and some riverside areas still have the custom of "releasing dragon lanterns". Many families make small boats out of reeds or sorghum stalks, insert candles or place small oil bowls made from radishes on them, and then wait until dusk, put them in the river or bay and light them to light the way for the dragon. This is a way of entertainment and at the same time conveys good wishes. Fifth auspicious day: Surrounding the granary <br /> On the morning of the second day of the second lunar month, villagers in many northern regions get up early. Housewives take a basket of ash from under their stoves, scoop some ash with a small iron shovel, and draw circles on the ground with their hands. The circles of the enclosure are big inside small, with at least three and at most five, and they surround odd numbers but not even numbers. After the granary is enclosed, the family’s grain is reverently placed in the middle of the granary and intentionally scattered around the outside of the granary, symbolizing a good harvest that year. The sixth auspicious day: worshipping the community <br /> The custom of worshipping the community is still followed in the south. For example, in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other regions, there are new customs of the second day of the second month that are similar to the Dragon Head-raising Festival, but are mainly based on the custom of worshipping the community. Because "the earth carries all things" and "gathers wealth on the earth", the land god is widely worshipped in southern my country. He is also called "she", "she god", "tu god" and "fude zhengshen". The Hakka people call him "tudibogong". The main purpose of the community day on "February 2" is to offer sacrifices to the land and gather the community for drinking, to entertain people by worshiping and entertaining the gods. The seventh auspicious day: Opening Ceremony <br /> The third day of the second lunar month is the birthday of Wenchang, the god who rules over fame and fortune. On this day, scholars worship Wenchang and pray for success in the imperial examinations. On this day, they worship Wenchang and ask him to bless their children with academic success and success in the imperial examinations. According to the old custom, children would perform a ceremony to start writing on the second day of the second lunar month, marking the beginning of their formal studies. In the past, scholars had to perform four ceremonies, namely the ceremony of opening a pen, the ceremony of advancement, the ceremony of thanksgiving and the ceremony of becoming the top scholar. Among them, the ceremony of opening a pen is the first major ceremony in life. Kaibi means starting to write an article. The ceremony mainly includes worshiping the statue of Confucius, teaching the most basic principles of life, and presenting the four treasures of the study. Now many places have resumed this activity. On the other hand, many customs of February 2 are related to dragons. Starting school on this day also has the meaning of "wishing your son to become a dragon", implying that a good start can make it easier for children to succeed. The eighth auspicious day: Knocking the dragon head <br /> In some areas of Northeast China, people use long poles to hit the beams of houses on the morning of February 2, which is called "knocking the dragon head". Wake up the dragon and bring peace to the area. Adults and children also recite: "On the second day of the second month, the dragon raises its head, the big granaries are full, and the small granaries are overflowing." In some places, people use stove ash to spread large circles in the yard and put grains in the middle, which is called "beating the granary" or "filling the granary", wishing for a good harvest and full granaries that year. The ninth auspicious sign: The money-attracting dragon <br /> The dragon governs water, and water brings wealth. In some areas, it is popular to "attract the money dragon" on the second day of the second lunar month. Of course, the ways of attracting it are slightly different. For example, some people put a few ancient coins or coins in a kettle, and then fetch a kettle of water from a well, flowing river or lake near their home. They sprinkle the water all the way back home and pour the water and coins in the kettle into a water tank, meaning that the dragon will follow the water to their home; some people use copper coins to pull a red line, take it home and put it in an urn; some people use coal ash as a guide.
