The Custom Of Dragon Looking Up

On the second day of the second lunar month, the biggest folk custom is “shaving the dragon’s head”, because it is unlucky to shave the head in the first month. Because no matter how busy they are before the Spring Festival, people will cut their hair once before the Spring Festival, and then they have to wait until the day when the “dragon heads up”. Therefore, on February 2, whether it is the elderly or children, they will cut their hair, trim their faces, and refresh themselves, which indicates that they can get a year of good luck.


1. Noodles, also called eating “Dragon Beard”, from which the Dragon Beard Noodles got their name. “On the second day of the second month, the dragon looks up, the big warehouse is full, and the small warehouse flows.” On this day, people use the custom of eating noodles to worship the Dragon King, hoping that it will be able to travel through clouds and rain, and spread the rain.
2. Dumplings, on February 2, every household will make dumplings. Eating dumplings on this day is called “eating dragon ears”. After eating “dragon ears”, the dragon will bless his health and get rid of all kinds of diseases.
