The second month of the lunar calendar in 2021 is a month worth looking forward to. May we all have good fortunes. Check out the latest article on Mr. Shui Mo's website for details!What are the three phases of the Spring Equinox?The three signs of the Spring Equinox are: "The first sign is the arrival of the black bird; the second sign is the sound of thunder; the third sign is the beginning of lightning."Analysis of the meaning of the arrival of the black bird "The first migratory bird arrives", the black bird is the swallow, a seasonal migratory bird. During the spring equinox, the weather in the north becomes warmer, and the swallows that have hibernated in the south fly back to the north, carry grass and mud to build nests, and start a new year of life. Analysis of the meaning of the second phase of Lei Nai "The second sign is the sound of thunder." Five days after the thunder, lightning will be seen. Although there is thunder during the Waking of Insects, the really rainy season is during the Spring Equinox. At this time, the weather turns warmer, the rainfall increases, and the air is humid, so there is a second phenomenon: "thunder sounds." Analysis of the meaning of the three phases of electricity "The third sign begins with lightning." As the rainfall increases, it is accompanied by thunder and lightning. At this time, people can often see lightning striking from the clouds. What does the Spring Equinox symbolize?The Spring Equinox symbolizes that day and night are equal.On the vernal equinox, the sun moves from south to north on the celestial sphere and reaches the intersection of the celestial equator and the ecliptic. This time is called the vernal equinox, the midpoint of spring in the northern hemisphere (equinox means half, and this day is half of spring, so it is called the vernal equinox). The vernal equinox occurs on March 21, a day when day and night are equal in length, hence the name “fen”. From the perspective of our country's customs and habits, it is more common to use the Beginning of Spring, Beginning of Summer, Beginning of Autumn and Beginning of Winter to represent the beginning of the four seasons. The vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox and winter solstice among the 24 solar terms are in the middle of each season. On the day of the Spring Equinox, the sun's rays directly hit the equator, and the time of day and night is equal everywhere on Earth. Therefore, in ancient times, the Spring Equinox and Autumn Equinox were also called "the division of day and night". There is a folk saying that "On the Spring Equinox and Autumn Equinox, the day and night are equal." Therefore, the arrival of the vernal equinox symbolizes the equality of day and night. What is suitable to do during the Spring Equinox?The Spring Equinox is a good time to fly kitesFlying a kite is a must-do activity during an outing. Kites, called "harriers" in ancient times and "kites" in the north, have a history of more than 2,000 years. "Kite" and "Yan" are both raptors of the hawk family. In ancient times, kites were mostly made of silk or paper in the shape of eagles, so kites are also called "paper kites" or "paper kites". The Spring Equinox is a good time to hold the Flower Festival According to ancient customs, the birthday of the folk flower god is very close to the vernal equinox. Therefore, in order to commemorate the flower god, people will hold the "Flower Festival", commonly known as the Flower Festival. Taking advantage of the time when flowers are in full bloom, it is fun to go on a family outing to enjoy the flowers. |
