The Day Two Dragons Meet | Spring Equinox Explained

This year, something rare happens on March 20.

In traditional Chinese culture, Lunar February 2 is known as the day when the Dragon "raises its head."
It marks the moment when a specific star pattern begins to rise in the eastern sky.

At the same time, this day is also connected to the Earth—through the traditional belief in the Land God.

In 2026, this date coincides exactly with the Spring Equinox —
a moment when day and night are perfectly balanced.

This rare alignment is called:

“Two Dragons Meet at the Spring Equinox” (二龍同春)

In this video, we explore:
• The astronomical meaning behind the "Dragon"
• The cultural meaning of the Land God
• Why the Spring Equinox represents balance and renewal
• What this rare timing means in traditional thought

This is not just mythology —
it is deeply connected to ancient observations of the cosmos.

This video is a short excerpt from a longer lesson in our full program.
