When is the birthday of the dragon? The birthday difference is less than 1 days.

June 13th of the lunar calendar is the time when the solar terms meet, and that day is also the traditional Dragon King's Day, which is a festival for people to pray for good weather, so this year's Summer and Dragon King's Day are the same day. As the old saying goes, "The summer heat is not a disaster year when it meets the Dragon King Festival." Let's take a look at what the Dragon King Festival is.

How did the dragon come from?

At first, when night falls, people always like to sit under the night sky and count the stars and watch the sky. After a long time, it is found that the position of Polaris is relatively static, because Polaris is located above the earth's rotation axis, so people set Polaris as the center of the sky, and there are triangular walls, Taiwei walls and Tianshi walls around Polaris, which are called "three walls".

In addition to the "Three Walls", people have divided the eastern, western, northern and southern star regions, namely, East Qinglong, West White Tiger, South Suzaku and North Xuanwu, which are called "Four Elephants". Each elephant consists of seven lodges, among which the seven lodges in the East are horns, horns, cymbals, houses, hearts, tails and dustpans. These seven lodges are just like shapes, so they are called East Qinglong.

Of course, at that time, the word dragon and its pronunciation did not exist. Later, people found that the position of the Seven Hostels of Qinglong in the sky was constantly changing. Spring rises from the eastern horizon, and on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the corner of the seven nights stays on the ground, just like the dragon wants to raise its head, so February 2 is called "the dragon looks up".

In summer, Seven Nights of Qinglong rose to the southern sky. On the day of the summer solstice, the position of Seven Nights of Qinglong was higher in the sky. After the summer solstice, Seven Nights of Qinglong began to slowly sink to the west. In autumn, only one tail is still above the horizon after seven nights in Qinglong. After winter, the seven nights of Qinglong were completely hidden below the horizon, and then rose from the eastern horizon in the following spring. This is the running law of the seven nights of Qinglong in the sky.

The dry divination describes the position of the Qinglong seven nights in the sky, and the second day of February is to see the dragon in the field, just like the dragon head lying on the field. The summer solstice means that the dragon is in the sky, because at the summer solstice, the seven nights of Qinglong are higher in the southern sky, and because the south is the sky, it is called the dragon in the sky.

It has been found that the rainy season is also the most rainy season when the position of Qinglong Seven Nights is higher in the sky. So people think that the rain is determined by the position of the Seven Nights of Qinglong in the sky, and before it rains, it is always accompanied by the sound of thunder, so people think that this is the sound of dragons, so they call the Seven Nights of Qinglong "Long", which is the pronunciation of dragons.

In farming, the amount of rain is directly related to the harvest of crops, and the harvest of crops is directly related to people's living standards. The dragon is in charge of rain, so the "dragon" has become the totem of many tribes. With the battle and annexation between tribes and the merger of totems, over time, the dragon that people now imagine has been formed.

What is the Dragon King Festival?

because the dragon is in charge of the rain, it is also in charge of people's living standards, so the dragon king has been widely worshipped by people. In the past, there was a dragon king in almost every village. Whenever the weather was dry, people would go to worship the dragon king, with the intention of praying for good weather, and this is how the Dragon King Festival came into being.

June in the lunar calendar is also the hottest time, and it is the time when rain is needed, so it is logical that June 13th can become the Dragon King Festival. According to legend, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a rainstorm on June 13th, one year, and the flood washed out a tablet of the Dragon King at the seaside, so people built the Dragon King locally and designated that day as the birthday of the Dragon King, and they went to worship it every year. This place is now Qingdao.

Of course, June 13th is called "Jing Quan Dragon King Festival" in some places, which means the birthday of Dragon King Jing. Whether it is the well dragon king or the sea dragon king, it is related to rain. Therefore, the old people say: If it rains on June 13th, it will be a bumper year; if it is dry, it will rain less in the future.

As the saying goes, "June 13th, let's go straight without rain", which means that June 13th is the birthday of the Dragon King. If it doesn't rain on this day, it means that the Dragon King is lazy this year, and there will be less rain in the future. If there is less rain in June, it indicates that the autumn harvest is not good.

The summer heat meets the Dragon King Festival, and the summer heat is not a disaster year

This year's June 13th is the time when the solar terms of the summer heat meet, and it is also the Dragon King Festival. The so-called "summer heat" is also a fire. For example, "Three Geng is a volt" is because gold meets a fire, so it has to be volt, because gold is afraid of fire. Fire is afraid of water, so if it rains, the summer heat will rise.

Because it is the Dragon King's Day in the summer heat, if the summer heat is not enough, it means that it will be sunny and it will not rain, which means that there will be less rain in the future. As the saying goes, "five days without rain and a little drought, ten days without rain and a big drought, and January without rain," autumn crops are hopeless.

the above is related to when the birthday of the dragon is, and it is about the sharing of the dragon king. After watching the birthday, the difference is less than 1 days. I hope this will help everyone!
