today is "dragon rising festival" in china

Today is Feb 2nd in the Chinese lunar calendar, it is called "dragon rising festival". In Chinese tales, dragon is a spirit in charge of rain. dragon rising indicate that the spring rain is about to fall. So farmers started their spring ploughing today. The festival is celebrated in various way, I can'tam not able to tell the detail, because I was born in city, and I never celebrate this festival, and so about the same to people around me. all of us contributed to the lack of basic sense in our own culture. While I try to use English to introduce our culture to some foreigners, I can't tell the spirit of our culture. I need to google it. That's funny a pity!
