February 2, also known as "Dragon Head", is the first grand festival after the first month, and it is also the best day to make Chinese most energetic.
As the saying goes, the second dragon in February looks up and raises a good omen for a year.
Whether rich or poor, the following things must be done well today!
01, dragon gas
In Chinese culture, the dragon is a symbol of auspiciousness and a spiritual totem of the Chinese nation.
In the era of farming, the dragon was endowed with extraordinary significance, dominating Shi Yunbuyu, which was extremely sacred; in feudal society, the emperor was also known as the "True Dragon Heavenly Son", the Supreme Of the Ninety-Five- And Nine-Year Plan; in modern times, the "descendants of the dragon" were even more condensed with the spirit of thousands of Chinese sons and daughters to fight hard.
Today, "dragon" is no longer a simple term, but a totem flowing in the blood of countless Chinese.
On the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, it is the day when the dragon ascends to heaven, and on this day, people have many beautiful prayers in addition to praying for rain and praying for rain, hoping that the wind and rain will be smooth and the grain will be abundant.
Dragon Qi is one of them.
On the second of February, the dragon qi was collected, and the eyebrows were raised and exhaled for a year.
On this day, people will get up as early as possible, between five and seven o'clock in the morning, facing the direction of the green dragon, that is, the east, and take a deep breath, which is called "dragon qi".
02. Shave the faucet
On the second of February, shave the dragon's head, and have a spiritual head all year round.
In many parts of the mainland, there is a saying that if you don't shave your head in the first month, you will shave your head and die uncle.
In fact, the real meaning is not so, the ancients believe that the body skin by the parents, do not dare to be hurt, at the beginning of the haircut representative means "thinking of the old", but passed on, it became a "dead uncle".
Of course, the ancients did not completely cut their hair, but they would not easily damage their own body skin.
On the second of February, the green dragon looks up, the spring returns to the earth, and everything begins, which is a good day to get rid of the old and welcome the new, and it is also the best time to cut hair.
Adults shave their heads, cut off the troubles of the old years, lightly load on the road, and look forward to getting ahead;
Children get haircuts, hope in the new year, thrive, and wish to grow up healthily.
No matter what sad and regretful the old year has, cut off three thousand troublesome silks, and the new year's spirit is shaken again, as long as you say goodbye to the wrong, you will definitely usher in good luck!
03, eat dragon food
Eat dragon food on February 2 to keep you healthy and strong.
All the festivals Chinese are closely related to food, which is the wisdom left by the ancestors: eating well is living well.
Indeed, there are tens of thousands of days in life, sorrow likes to fall in the middle, misfortune is never by people, only wish to live every day well.
The dragon looked up, and it was no exception.
Eat the "dragon head" (pork head meat), good color head, a year of good luck to be the head;
Eat "dragon ears" (dumplings), make a fortune, and the new year's wealth will roll in;
Eat "dragon scales" (spring cake or flapjacks), keep safe, wind and rain shun Guotai Min'an;
Support "dragon whiskers" (pasta), long and long, smooth;
Eat "gentian" (rice cake), eat rice cake, step by step...
Of course, each place has created different food cultures because of its unique geographical climate and customs, but different customs contain the same blessings.
Food is Chinese love song written for the festival, and each kind of food contains the affection and wisdom, expectations and wishes of the working people.
Go with the flow, go with the flow, always tolerate, always grateful, always kind!

The dragon head is the spiritual head of the Chinese. As long as you look up, you will never bow down.
Today is the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the dragon looks up, and it is also the opening day of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games.
In the past few days, the international situation is very tense, one after another shouted "art without borders" and "sports without borders" in the civilized countries, again and again to refresh their lower limits, it turns out that they have always been so double standard, let people laugh at the same time, but also a thousand emotions.
More than a hundred years ago, we were jokingly called "deaf heirs", sick cowards, and in just one hundred years, this dragon has finally awakened after many hardships.
Not because of the benevolence of outsiders, but because of the blood and sacrifice of countless predecessors, the current peace is not easy to come by, but since the dragon has awakened, it must take off.
The dragon head, that is, the spiritual head of the Chinese, lifted today, will surely travel thousands of miles to let me swim.
