Tiger year misses 1st solar

'兩頭無春'正常無關(guān)兇吉

The first of Chinese solar terms, the Beginning of Spring, which falls on February 3-5, will be missing in the coming "Tiger year" of lunar calendar from February 14, 2010 to February 2, 2011. Astronomers attribute it to the parallel of both lunar and solar calendars, rather than any other reason. Many people were incorrectly superstitious and refused to hold festivities like weddings, moving home, the construction of buildings and setting up firms.

從2010年2月14日至2011年2月2日，為農(nóng)歷的"虎年"。由于立春節(jié)氣在每年的2月3-5日，因此，即將到來的"虎年"確實(shí)沒有立春。很多人認(rèn)為這很不吉利，不宜進(jìn)行結(jié)婚、喬遷、建房、創(chuàng)業(yè)等喜慶之事，對(duì)此，天文專家表示，虎年"兩頭無春"是由中國(guó)農(nóng)歷和陽(yáng)歷兩套歷法并行的制度造成的，與兇吉無關(guān)。
