What year is the Spring Festival of 202 1?
202 1 is the year of the ox without spring and ugliness.
It also depends on China's lunar calendar method and timing method. China has 24 solar terms, and China's lunar calendar method is based on the law of the earth's rotation. That is, according to the cycle of the moon around the earth, it takes a month for the moon to go from lack to full, and then from full to lack.
Beginning of spring date of 202 1 is1February 22nd this year, and the third day of February of 202 1 is the twelfth lunar month. The date of beginning of spring in 2022 is the fourth day of the first lunar month in 2022 and the fourth day of the solar calendar in 2022. Lunar calendar year 202 1 is from the first day of the first month to the thirtieth day of the twelfth month, and there is no beginning of spring, so it is called spring-free year, also called widowed year.
There is a saying in the countryside: "The cow has no spring year, and the long-term workers are always idle!" This proverb shows that if the Year of the Ox is a year without spring, farmers employed by landlords in the past are very busy, which means that this year will be a bumper harvest. After all, in the past, big landlords in rural areas generally employed long-term workers as well as short-term workers. This proverb also shows that farmers will not stop taking risks when the weather is favorable next year, mainly because of the bumper harvest.
According to some weather forecasts, there will indeed be signs of good weather and good harvest next year, at least like this year's La Nina phenomenon will be reduced. What's more, it snowed heavily in many places in the north this winter. Ruixue indicates a bumper year and also reflects the snowy climate this winter.
There is a folk saying next year that "two dragons control water and eleven oxen plow the fields". This is a metaphor. Legend says that dragons control water. Legend has it that 12 dragons control water, many dragons control drought, few dragons control waterlogging, and two dragons control water, which is basically good weather. In other words, there will be relatively abundant rain and favorable weather next year. Even if there are many cows at home, they will still plow the fields, and they will not be idle, that is, they will rush to harvest and sow.
