The origin of the sheep zodiac

In China folklore, sheep are as great as Prometheus in Greek mythology. Prometheus was put on the stage for stealing skyfire from the world, while sheep gave their lives for stealing five grains and seeds from the world.

In ancient times, there were no whole grains on the earth, and human beings lived on vegetables and weeds. Severe malnutrition makes human beings yellow, hungry and thin.

One autumn, a god sheep came to the world from the Heavenly Palace and found that human beings were pale and depressed. Ask why, I just know that humans don't grow food, and I don't even know what food is. God sheep is so kind that he immediately tells people to bring them some grain seeds next time. It turned out that at that time, only Tiangong and Yutian planted nutritious food. The stingy jade emperor doesn't want to share delicious food with human beings. After God Sheep returned to the Heavenly Palace, he sneaked into the palace in the middle of the night, picked the grains (rice, millet, wheat, beans and hemp), put them in his mouth, and slipped to the earth before dawn. Humans are very curious. I heard that God Sheep brought them the seeds of grain. God sheep gave the seeds to mankind, and commanded the method of planting grains, and quietly returned to the heavenly palace.

When humans sow the seeds of grain, they grow crops that year. What humans see when harvesting is the ear of wheat, which is like the head and tail of a sheep. The harvested grain is fragrant and sweet, and the clothes made of harvested hemp are light and warm. After the autumn harvest and winter storage, people held a grand commemorative ceremony to thank the sheep for sending seeds. This ritual of farmers offering sacrifices to their ancestors during the autumn harvest and winter storage is still held in some rural areas.

The grand ceremony of sacrificing sheep alarmed the jade emperor, who thought of the appearance of human grains. I immediately thought that God Sheep had brought Guge to the world. After finding out the situation, the Jade Emperor was furious with the God Sheep, ordered the Heaven Palace to slaughter the sheep on earth and invited people to eat mutton.

The next year, a strange thing happened. Where the God sheep was put to death, the grass first grew, and then the lamb grew. Since then, sheep have been passed down from generation to generation, eating grass for a living and selflessly dedicating their meat and milk to human beings. Out of gratitude for giving his life for sheep, human beings hold the La Worship every year to commemorate it.

When people heard that the Jade Emperor wanted to choose twelve kinds of animals as human zodiac animals to be dedicated to the gods, people unanimously recommended sheep as such zodiac animals. Although the Jade Emperor was very unhappy about sheep stealing grain, it was hard to disagree with everyone and had to agree that sheep became the zodiac.

calendar year

The Gregorian calendar year of Weiyang is:

1907, 19 19, 193 1, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979.

199 1, 2003, 20 15, 2027, 2039, 205 1, 2063.

In 2075, 2087, 2099 and so on.

Judgment method

When the number of AD is divided by 12 and the remainder is 1 1, all the years are the Year of the Sheep.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 1 1.

For example: 2003÷ 12= the quotient is 166, and the remainder is 9 1, then 2003 is the year of the sheep.

The traditional Year of the Sheep in China begins on the first day of the first lunar month and ends on New Year's Eve, because the zodiac year is attached to the calendar year of the trunk and branches, which is the calendar year method of the lunar calendar.

But in the eight-character numerology, beginning of spring is the starting point of calculating numerology.

Interesting theory

Sheep have been with human beings for a long time, and they are closely related to people. It is really worth writing a book to tell. Because of its moderate size and poor attack power, it poses almost no threat to people and is not as fierce as wolves, tigers and leopards. It is one of the most ideal hunting targets. Because it eats grass, produces milk, meat, hair and skin, and because it is gentle and easy to tame, it has become the earliest animal raised by human beings. The ancients took "horses, cows, sheep, chickens and dogs" as the six livestock, and sheep was "famous on the list" and ranked in the forefront. It is enough to show its important position in the eyes of the ancients.

The reason why sheep can carry art is that it entered the human vision very early, so it is lifelike in the early primitive cultural relics. In the mottled rock paintings, there are their vigorous figures; In the patterns of pottery, there are their beautiful faces; From the "four-sheep square bottle" and "three-sheep bronze cylinder" in Shang Dynasty to the "sheep-shaped bronze lamp" and "three-colored sheep in Tang Dynasty", and then to various folk handicrafts such as New Year pictures and paper-cuts, all kinds of sheep images can be seen everywhere, which have brought great aesthetic enjoyment to people from generation to generation and become an indispensable and important factor in people's lives.

Sheep can represent beauty. The word "beauty" in Chinese characters is a combination of "sheep" and "big". Sheep are beautiful, which is a vivid embodiment of the pragmatic aesthetic tendency of the ancients.

Sheep can be used as food. "Fish" and "sheep" together become the word "fresh", which embodies the delicacy of ancient people and makes us drool.

The word "sheep" breeds culture. The ancients created the word "sheep" by pictographic method, which is widely used. In the Chinese Character Dictionary, there are as many as 204 Chinese characters with "sheep" as the radical, which fully shows its great influence on the lives of our ancestors. Unconsciously, the influence of sheep has penetrated into all aspects of human life, making people dizzying.

Sheep have accompanied heroes. According to Su Han Wu Chuan, Hanzhong Lang was ordered by Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty to send Su Wufeng to the Xiongnu. Huns Khan acted outrageously against Han Hu, detained Su Wu, sent him to the North Sea to graze sheep (rams), and threatened that "milk will be returned". Su Wu keeps company with sheep, holding the Han Festival in his hand, hungry for grass seeds and thirsty for snow water, and does not disgrace his mission. It was not until A.D. 19 that Khan woke up, and Su Cai had to return to Chang 'an and become a vassal country, which left a long story.

Sheep can inspire wisdom. According to the Warring States policy of Chu Ce IV, Chu Huaiwang listened to Zhang Yi's rhetoric and was imprisoned in the State of Qin. Wang Xiang acceded to the throne, not enterprising. Zhuang Xin, a good minister, refused to accept his words and avoided Zhao. Soon, it was occupied by Qin. Wang Xiang regretted it and found Zhuangxin. Zhuang Credit "It's not too late to mend" to encourage Wang Xiang to rally and make a comeback. Used here, it is both easy to understand and concise.

Sheep can symbolize Aetna. There is an old saying called "Three sheep open Thailand". Textual research on "Three Yang Kai Tai" should be called "Three Yang Kai Tai", which originated from the Book of Changes. Taking November as the complex divination, one yang is born in the next; December is divination, and Er Yang is born next; The first month is the Thai hexagram, and the next month is the birth of Sanyang. It means that winter goes and spring comes, and the yin disappears and the yang grows, which is a symbol of good luck. Another explanation of "Three Yang Kai Tai" is: 1 1 The winter solstice has the shortest day, and then the day becomes longer. Because of this, the ancients said that the yin gradually disappears and the yang gradually grows, so it is called the winter solstice and the sun is born. The sun was born in February 65438 and the sun was born in the first month. Therefore, the old routine is used as a greeting at the beginning of the new year. And "sheep" and "yang" are homophones, and over time, they mistakenly think that "three sheep open Thailand". Later generations will attach a specific shape of "three big-horned sheep standing in one place", which will become an auspicious image known to women and children.

Sheep can embody justice. Sheep have long regarded their myths as a symbol of justice because of their integrity and beautiful image in the eyes of the ancients. According to Wang Chong's On Shi Hengying, Hao Tao, our minister, was in charge of the prison with the help of a one-horned sheep. This sheep is a suspect. If you were innocent, you would not touch it. This is very effective. In the Warring States period, the imperial censors, prison officials and other law enforcers in Qin Chu and other countries all wore crowns with the one-horned god sheep pattern to show solemnity and sacredness. As a symbol of justice in law enforcement, the image of this one-horned sheep has been used as the official uniform pattern of law enforcers until the late Qing Dynasty.

Sheep like to be clean. Sheep are willing to live in a dry and tidy place, hungry for grass in sharbat, lead an honest and clean life and stay away from filth. Unlike some animals, who play in the mud all day, drink and drown their meals, hide and hide, look around and be complacent, and have no shame at all.

Although sheep is quiet and elegant, everyone loves it, but it also has some shortcomings, that is, poor resistance and lack of fighting spirit. Even if he was killed, it was just a whisper, and then he was killed. Not like a pig at all, although he can't run for his life, he is willing to shout "Song" and try his best to rush to the sky at the top of his lungs. There must be a reason why pigs and sheep are so different. According to folklore, both pigs and sheep were upset because they were slaughtered, and they had the idea of seeking justice from God. Sheep move lightly, and there is wind under their feet. You should interview first. God smiled and said, "don't blame pigs, don't blame sheep, don't blame pigs and sheep." You are a dish on the earth. What's the use of waiting for you to do nothing all day, relying entirely on humans to feed you, but not eating your meat? You should understand. Go back and tell Mr. Pig to take it in stride and don't have to come again. " Although the sheep still feel sad to hear this, it makes sense to think about it. Helpless, I had to go home. I met a fat pig on the road and saw it panting and struggling. Sheep convey the word of God. The pig is angry and feels unfair. The sheep tugged hard and dragged it back to the house. After that, the sheep only sighed in the face of the butcher knife; Because the pig couldn't figure it out, he shouted until he died.

Perhaps influenced by the long-standing and well-known Chinese zodiac culture, many people are biased against the Year of the Sheep. They think that the fate of children in the Year of the Sheep is not good, so that by the end of the Year of the Horse, there are many mothers. What's more, he did not hesitate to have a caesarean section in advance to avoid the "bad luck" of his son's birth in the Year of the Sheep. This move is not only groundless from a scientific point of view, but also absurd from a cultural tradition. On the other hand, being like a sheep is not pleasant, but being like a horse is no better. In fact, it is really a self-defeating generation to have a caesarean section in advance to avoid the Year of the Sheep.

People who belong to sheep are generally docile and considerate. Ten sheep and nine rich people can always get the care and help of others. And everyone's fate is not only determined by the zodiac. Everyone should educate their children well and make them excellent and moral.

Winter goes and spring comes, and the cycle is repeated, 12, until the end of time. Life is short without years. At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, it seems that we should respect the virtue of horses, promote the goodness of sheep, be virtuous and carry things, and strive for a better tomorrow.

Nine of the ten sheep are incomplete.

People think that children who belong to sheep are followers rather than leaders when they grow up. People who belong to sheep are doomed to fail in marriage and have a bad career. Many treasure mothers have also listened to the rumor that the Year of the Sheep is unwilling to have children. In fact, the legend is unreliable.

Folk circulation

Folklore says that sheep have a bad life and a bad marriage. It is a legend after the late Qing Dynasty. There was no such statement before the Qing dynasty, and there was no such statement in ancient numerology books. Because Empress Dowager Cixi is a sheep, there is such a saying. However, as Empress Dowager Cixi is the Empress Dowager, it is probably wrong to say that her life is not good. I can only say that she has brought disaster to the country and people.

origin

Since ancient times, people in China like to use the word "sheep" to express good luck. The word "sheep" in Sanyang Kaitai means to express good luck and good wishes through the homonym of "sheep". In fact, the correct spelling is "Three Yang Kai Tai", which comes from the Book of Changes, meaning that winter goes and spring comes.

"Shuo Wen Jie Zi" says: "Sheep are auspicious." "Beauty, too. From sheep, big ... beauty is consistent with goodness. " In ancient times, people regarded sheep as gods and mascots. In ancient Chinese, the words "sheep" and "auspicious" are interlinked. Many ancient artifacts have written the word "auspicious" as "auspicious sheep".

There is a saying in ancient times that "ten sheep are nine blessings", and sheep symbolize happiness. Some people mistakenly wrote "Ten Sheep and Nine Fuquan", which was passed down by word of mouth and misrepresented as "Ten Sheep and Nine Fuquan". According to textual research, before the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, there was no such thing as "ten sheep and nine incomplete". "Ten sheep and nine imperfections" is a political strategy to overthrow Empress Dowager Cixi. Because Empress Dowager Cixi was a sheep, in order to overthrow her, people began to claim that it was not good to be a sheep. In addition, Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang are both sheep, which makes people feel disgusted with several princes who are sheep, leading to this legend.

In fact, there are many celebrities who belong to the sheep in ancient and modern times, such as Li Shimin (599), Nurhachi (1559), Ouyang Xiu (1007), Sima Guang (10/9) and Ceng Gong (10/0). Mo Yan (1955), Yam Tat-wah (1955), Chen (1955), (1955), (1955) and (1955). Na Ying (1967), Gao Yuanyuan (1979), Hou Xian (1979), Huang Chulin (1980 1), Sun Yang (19/kloc). Gao Zhuancheng, director of the Institute of Sociology of Shanxi Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that the saying that "sheep have a hard time" is unfounded and more a hint of convergence. When people feel that their life is bumpy, they will find irresistible factors outside themselves to hint at themselves. With the improvement of the overall quality of the people, the theory of genus may change with the development of society.
