Year of the snake's calculation method

When the number of AD years is divided by 12, all the years with a remainder of 9 are year of the snake.

The formula is: the number of years in AD ÷ 12= a quotient, and the remainder is 9.

For example: 20 13÷ 12= quotient is 167, and the remainder is 9, then 20 13 is year of the snake.

The origin of year of the snake

The reason why snake has become an annoying and horrible term is because its shape gives people the impression of ugliness, ferocity and horror. However, in the oldest legend, snake is a beautiful term.

In the ancient folk culture of China, the snake was once a beautiful symbol and a worshipped image, because it was the earliest totem of the Chinese nation and a primitive religious god, and was later called the ancestor god.

In ancient legends and myths, the ancestors of human beings, Fu and Nu Wa, were snakes with human faces, and the intercourse of their two gods produced human beings. According to legend, Xuanyuan Huangdi, the ancestor of China, was also a snake with a human face. Totem worship, as a primitive religion, still has far-reaching influence. Some ethnic minorities in China still have some reservations, and the worship of snakes is still the folk culture content of some ethnic minorities. There are also relics of offering sacrifices to the "domestic snake" among the Han people, saying that "domestic snake" is the manifestation of ancestors and should be offered sacrifices, and it still exists among the elderly in some areas (mainly rural areas and mountainous areas).

It can be seen that the legendary snake is the ancestor of human beings, and it is admired by human beings, so the snake is included in the zodiac, and hence the year of the snake.
