What year is the Year of the Loong?
The Year of the Loong is calculated from beginning of spring in the twenty-four solar terms, because the year of Zodiac is the year of dry branch, and the year of dry branch is the year method of dry branch calendar. The same is true of the official almanac (that is, the Yellow Calendar). There is no doubt that the lunar calendar only uses branches to mark the year, which ranges from the first day of the first month to New Year's Eve. Lunar calendar and trunk calendar are two different calendars, which are different in the starting point of a year, the division rules of months and the number of days in a year. Due to the use of the Gregorian calendar after the Republic of China, many people lack the knowledge of the calendar, so the two are often confused.
Extended data:
Li Dongyang's "Huailvtang Collection" recorded "Nine sons born of a dragon" earlier.
"Dragon born nine children don't become a dragon, each to his own liking. Cows in prison have good music all their lives. Today, the beast carved on Hu Qin's head is his portrait. It is easy to kill people in one's life, and the dragon mouth on the golden handle is its portrait; Laugh at the wind, I have a close call in my life, and the animals in the corner of this temple are its portraits; Singing all his life is not old, it is the portrait of the animal button on this clock; Sister-in-law, sit in his life. Today, the lion in the Buddha's seat is his portrait.
Overlord, a good burden in life, this monument beast is its portrait; Armadillo is a litigator all his life. Today, the lion on the prison door is his portrait. After a long time, he was a good writer all his life. Long Wen is his portrait on both sides of this monument; Kissing is a good thing in my life. The head of the animal in this temple is its portrait. "Li Dongyang, around nine o'clock. Nine is actually a rough number. As far as I know, there are more than 10, such as gluttony and pepper map, which he didn't mention. Gluttony is a hungry bastard who will never get enough to eat. Pepper map is an image on the knocker of the gate, but bullying and growth seem to be the same thing.
Therefore, in Li Dongyang's eyes, the tombstone on the turtle's back has become a dragon pattern again, and the inscription beast has actually taken over. Also, mocking the wind and kissing on the roof, why don't they fight? But in any case, these nine or a dozen princes are still mortal. Everyone has his own advantages, temperament, shortcomings and responsibilities. He is more like a person than their father.
