Why you can't build in a leap year. Ancient belief, omen, or delusions?

This 2020 is a leap year, with one extra day added to the calendar. It is added to February, as to the shortest month. The fact is that in an astronomical year there are not exactly 365 days (the revolutions of the Earth around the Sun), but this is the number of revolutions:

Didn't know that leap years are not only every 4 years, but also once every 400 years! And anti-leap - once every 100 years! This is all superimposed, and once every 100 leap years are canceled. This is astronomy and mathematics in the Gregorian calendar. In Russia, or rather in the USSR, this calendar appeared only in 1918. (and in Saudi Arabia in 2016)! Before that, we lived according to the Julian calendar and accumulated the difference with Europe in 13 days. Europe began to live according to the Gregorian in 1582 (not all countries, of course). It's all true, for reference.

I don’t know about Europe, but among our population there is a belief that nothing serious can be done in a leap year. And even more so - to build! Today I saw this post on social networks:

In the comments, the people wrote their soft and not very jokes about this. And I wanted to understand in more detail, where is this belief, omen from? Because even among relatives, there is this tendency to limit themselves in serious endeavors and continuations.

In one of the explanations, I found a mention of the folk epic:

Leap year was associated with an angel named Kasian, who betrayed God. As a punishment, another angel was put on him and he beat him on the head for three years in a row, and on the fourth Kasyan was allowed to rest. He descended to Earth and caused confusion. Those. in a leap year, the rampant of evil spirits increases.

And our people of Russia, as many historians note, are not religious, but more superstitious. Therefore, on the basis of some church texts, all their conclusions appear superimposed on coincidences or events. Two times something coincided - this is no longer a coincidence, but statistics and away we go ...

After reading the sources on this topic, I found information in them that this year it is generally impossible to take any serious measures, not only to build, but and: do not sell livestock, do not get divorced, do not change jobs and place of residence, etc. In general, do not plan or do anything, go with the flow life.

People have been intimidated before. Now they are intimidated by other events. But nothing has changed. Progress does not stand still. And signs and beliefs are still alive today, especially in the villages.

And what about the personal experience of the author of these lines on this topic? Honestly, leap year 2012. was very difficult. I really didn't feel like doing anything. And the reason was clear to me: I am sensitive to solar flares and geomagnetic disturbances. 2012 - peak of maximum solar activity:

There were X-class outbreaks in the spring. Summer is also a continuous series of outbreaks. After such flares, magnetic storms occur. I was "pressed" to the sofa. Fair. He saved himself by sports. Observe in 2023-27. (in the next peak of activity - it lasts 4.2 years), maybe it somehow affects you... Graphs with resonances of Schumann frequencies will also help. Now the solar activity is at a minimum. Half a year ago, even instruments on satellites studying the solar X-ray spectrum showed the level of radiation at the limit of their sensitivity.

It's all biophysics. And this is all recognized by scientists. And to attribute a leap year as a revelry and the influence of dark forces is obscurantism. I think everything has physics. If something starts to "play pranks" and fall from the hands, it is because of cosmic and earthly processes and cycles, their impact on a person.

Maybe there are some destructive invisible forces, but that they would be clearly manifested exactly once every 4 years is somehow not logical... How do you feel about leap years? Write in the comments ...
