February 2nd is a traditional festival in China. It is said that the black dragon will rise against the sunrise on this day, and the sun is in full bloom. So there are many folk customs about dragons, and the pig's head is a substitute for the dragon's head. People eat pig's head meat on this day just to get off to a good start, hoping to bring good luck to themselves.

Eating pig's head meat on February 2 nd is not only in the hope of bringing good luck to yourself, but also because almost all the meat at home is eaten up during the Chinese New Year. At the beginning of February, the Spring Festival officially ended, and it was just right to make the remaining pig heads into dishes for the holidays.

The custom of raising the head of a dragon:

1, Sacrifice Society

A custom in the south, many people may not know, this day is actually the birthday of the land god, and the sacrificial society is also a sacrifice to him. People always think that land is the beginning of everything, including our food, clothing, housing and transportation, as well as wealth. For businessmen, it is a particularly important day to sacrifice to society, hoping to get the blessing of the god of wealth. In the new year, financial resources are rolling in, whether it is positive or partial, you can turn to yourself.

2. Dragon dance

Dragon lantern dance is a traditional dance in China, but it is not as popular as before. I remember that at that time, as long as there were important activities, dragons and lions would be danced. This dragon dance will be placed in the Dragon King Temple. On important festivals, the dragon body and the dragon head will dance together. As long as it is a dragon dance team, wherever you go, you don't worry about eating. This is also a form of people praying for Wang lung's blessing.
