Solar terms in the Lunar Year of the Rabbit
At the same time, the zodiac is also the image representative of the twelve earthly branches, namely, Zi (mouse), Ugly (ox), Yin (tiger), Mao (rabbit), Chen (dragon), Si (snake), Wu (horse), Wei (sheep), Shen (monkey), You (chicken) and Qi.
In other words, the Year of the Tiger is coming to an end and the Year of the Rabbit is coming.
I still remember those years when I watched the cartoon "Zodiac", I was really excited and my hands trembled. Every animal in the Zodiac finally died. The sense of loss in my heart is beyond words.
The year of the rabbit is coming in 2023. According to the old man, this year's Year of the Rabbit is unusual. It is not only the Year of the Black Rabbit, but also the Year of the Water Rabbit and the Double Spring Leap Moon. Therefore, this year's Year of the Rabbit is really extraordinary.
In 2023, the sky is dry and the ground is based. The Year of the Rabbit is the Year of the Water Rabbit and the Year of the Black Rabbit, which is very particular.
The ancients used "calendar years" to calculate, combined with the "five elements theory", B is wood, Ding is fire, oneself is earth, Xin is gold, and decyl is water.
Therefore, Mao Yi Rabbit is the Year of Wooden Rabbit, Ding Mao Rabbit is the Year of Fire Rabbit, Xin Mao Rabbit is the Year of Golden Rabbit, Ji Mao Rabbit is the Year of Native Rabbit, Gui Mao Rabbit is the Year of Water Rabbit, which also corresponds to five colors: green, red, yellow, white and black. The color corresponding to water is black, so the Year of Water Rabbit is also the Year of Black Rabbit.
What is unusual in 2023 is that it is a double spring plus a leap month.
In Shuangchun, there are two spring beginnings.
The two beginning of spring dates in 2023 are the 14th day of the first lunar month and the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
One at the beginning of the year and the other at the end of the year.
This phenomenon is caused by the calculation gap between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar.
The solar calendar is that the earth goes around the sun once a year for 365 days.
In the lunar calendar, the moon makes a circle around the earth, which is exactly one month and lasts for 29.52 days. In this way, a year is 354 days.
So the solar calendar is about 1 1 day more than the lunar calendar.
In order to make the solar calendar and lunar calendar more in line with the "twenty-four solar terms", the ancients adopted the way of "leap month" to adjust.
According to the folk saying, "leap in three years, leap in five years, leap in seventeen years", that is to say, after leap in February 2023, there will be leap in February 2042.
In fact, these are very basic common sense. As long as we understand them carefully, we feel very simple.
In the year of the Rabbit in 2023, there are three kinds of people who want to wear red. Do you know what three kinds of people are?
Red is a symbol of happiness and good luck, especially on holidays.
Red socks and red underwear are indispensable for people in the animal year.
During the Spring Festival, all decorations are red, red lanterns and red Spring Festival couplets, which are considered lucky.
In order to drive away the disaster, people in the animal year will wear red.
The purpose is very simple, that is, to ward off evil spirits, so that you can have good things and everything goes well in the new year.
So the first person who wants to wear red is the person in the Year of the Rabbit.
"Life is red" includes red clothes, red pants, red socks and red underwear. Only when these things are ready can we have a new year.
The second kind of people who want to wear red are people of "Ming Jiu" age, such as 9 years old, 19 years old, 29 years old, until 99 years old, or even 109 years old.
In the eyes of the ancients, "every eight days will be a disaster, and every nine days will be fierce."
"Nine" is a big number, and the imaginary number is used here.
Unless it is the emperor and the prince, the average person can't suppress this powerful breath.
The third kind of people who want to wear red are people with "black nine" age, such as18,27,36. People who are multiples of nine are called "dark nine".
"Prosperity leads to long decline" is a truth, and the ancient people's awe of "Nine" is very pure.

2023 is coming, although it is a very unusual year, and according to the custom of the ancients, all the three types of people mentioned above should wear red.
But as a modern person with higher education, there is no scientific basis for this.
All concerns are based on folk culture, which is a kind of cultural precipitation and respect for history, but in real life, it is not directly related to luck and wealth.
Culture needs to be inherited and carried forward, but some concepts must be treated rationally. Not all prayers can be answered, but wishes are just longing for a better future.
If you want to achieve it, you can only create it with your own hands and brain, and your efforts will be rewarded. This is the eternal truth.
