What day is Xiaohan? What's the point?
Minor Cold marks the official start of the winter season, so when is Minor Cold? What's the point? Let’s take a look at the following content!What day is Xiaohan?Minor Cold is the 23rd solar term in the 24 solar terms, the 5th solar term in winter, marking the end of the Zi month and the beginning of the Chou month in the Ganzhi calendar. The Big Dipper points to Zi; the sun's ecliptic longitude is 285°; the solar term falls on January 5-7 of the Gregorian calendar every year. Cold air accumulates over time and becomes cold. Minor Cold means the weather is cold but not extreme. Like Major Cold, Minor Heat, Major Heat and End of Heat, it is a solar term that indicates changes in temperature. The characteristic of the Minor Cold solar term is coldness, but it is not extremely cold.After the winter solstice, cold air frequently moves southward and the temperature continues to drop, reaching its lowest during the Lesser Cold and Greater Cold periods of the year. A folk proverb goes: "During the Minor Cold period, it is the 239th day of the frost, the weather is freezing and it is so cold that you shiver", which shows how cold the Minor Cold period is. During the Lesser Cold season, the sun's direct point is still in the Southern Hemisphere, and the heat in the Northern Hemisphere is still dissipating. The heat absorbed during the day is still less than the heat released at night, so the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere continues to drop. Inventory of Folk Sayings about the Minor Cold Solar TermFirst, the Lesser Cold Festival lasts for fifteen days, and the seventh or eighth day is the Sanjiu Festival. This saying means that "Minor Cold Festival" is the 23rd solar term in a year. There are 15 days between Minor Cold and Major Cold, and the seven or eight days after Minor Cold Festival are the "Three Nine Days"! This is a saying passed down by rural people through years of life experience, and it can be regarded as common sense!Second, after Lesser Cold and Greater Cold, another year has passed in the blink of an eye. This proverb means: Among the 24 solar terms, the Lesser Cold comes the Greater Cold, and the Greater Cold is the last solar term, so after the Greater Cold the year is over, and winter goes and spring comes, and another cycle of the four seasons begins. Third, if it snows on September 19th, pigs and dogs won’t eat anything black. This proverb means: after the winter solstice, the nine days begin to count, and nine days make up one nine, and so on. If it snows on every nine days, then the harvest will be very good next year, and even pigs and dogs will not eat moldy and blackened food. At the same time, this proverb also indicates a good harvest next year. |
