Can’t we say Happy Dragon Boat Festival? What else can we talk about if not happiness? Are you well?

During the Dragon Boat Festival, it is not that you cannot say Happy Dragon Boat Festival, but you must say Happy Dragon Boat Festival. The main thing is to suggest that everyone should not say "Happy Dragon Boat Festival" but "Happy Dragon Boat Festival" .
The reason why we cannot say happy but have to say healthy is mainly because the Dragon Boat Festival is one of the four major festivals in China and it is also a memorial day.
The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is related to the stories of Qu Yuan committing suicide by jumping into the river, Wu Zixu jumping into the river, and filial daughter Cao E jumping into the river to save her father. Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival is a serious and sad day. In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival is the most poisonous day in the Five Poisonous Months, so the ancients would drive away evil spirits and avoid epidemics on this day.
Nowadays, many traditional festivals are constantly abandoning bad habits and promoting their positive and healthy side as the times develop and society progresses.
So, during the Dragon Boat Festival, we should say, "Happy Dragon Boat Festival." Similarly, you cannot say "Happy Qingming Festival" during the Qingming Festival.

Is Dragon Boat Festival one of the 24 solar terms?

No, the Dragon Boat Festival is not one of the 24 solar terms. The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival.
The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Duanyang Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Double Fifth Festival, Dragon Festival, Zhengyang Festival, Tianzhong Festival, etc., is held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar and is a traditional Chinese folk festival. The Dragon Boat Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena and evolved from the dragon sacrifice in ancient times. During the Dragon Boat Festival in midsummer, the Azure Dragon rises to the south center of the sky. This is the day when the dragon flies to the sky, just as the fifth line of the Qian hexagram in the Book of Changes says: "The flying dragon is in the sky." On the Dragon Boat Festival, the Dragon Star is both "in the center" and "in the right place", which is a sign of great luck. The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival covers ancient astrological culture, humanities and philosophy, and contains profound and rich cultural connotations. In the process of inheritance and development, it has blended various folk customs into one, and the festival is rich in content. Dragon boat racing and eating rice dumplings are the two major customs of the Dragon Boat Festival. These two customs have been passed down in China since ancient times and continue to this day.
