The first month of 2024.
It has flown away like lightning.
And it belongs to the New Year of the Dragon.
This is just the beginning.
Stand at the tip of the beginning of spring.
The Temple of Heaven Park pays homage to everyone in their early years.
The initial east wind comes with the rain, opening up the world with a posture of cleansing the world, and wanting to leave behind the winter when everything is closed, which is the prelude from spring.
The east wind thaws, the world recovers, and the "Qunfang Spectrum" interprets this solar term: "Stand, start to build." Spring begins to build also. ”
As the first of the 24 solar terms, the beginning of spring in ancient times was highly valued, since the Western Zhou Dynasty there was a "ceremony to welcome spring", to the Han and Wei dynasties were more grand, "the day of the beginning of spring, the Son of Heaven personally led the three princes, nine kings, princes, and doctors to welcome spring in the eastern suburbs" ("Rites and Monthly Orders").
On this day, every household in the Northern and Southern Dynasties posted the word "Yichun" on the door, and the Tang Dynasty even took the ribbon-cutting as the Shang, which was called the "ribbon-cutting and blind date......There is no year, no spring".
As for drinking spring wine, eating spring cakes, cutting spring flags, wearing spring sheng, and welcoming spring gods, ......Such a variety of spring customs, has been extended from the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the court "the beginning of spring, at the noon gate to give hundreds of officials spring cakes." (Qing Dynasty, "Yandu Excursion Journal").
From ancient times to the present, in this solar term closest to the New Year, you can see all kinds of competition and vitality everywhere.
It's time for the Year of the Dragon.
In this ancient altar "closest to the sky".
Several cute dragons flew in.
The red wall is bathed in the skylight.
Spread good luck into the new year.
Here's wishing everyone a good friend.
The sun and the moon are signing, and the morning and dusk are turning.
Nine days of dragon Yao, joy for many years.
Jiachen New Year is coming towards you and me.
Your Spring Festival holiday top-up is coming soon.
Your New Year's greetings are on the way.
The Temple of Heaven in 2024 is ready.
I look forward to everyone's "dragon" reappearing.
