Stimulating foods such as chili peppers, onions, garlic, and pepper should also be eaten less. (3) In spring, the liver qi is strong and can easily damage the spleen. Therefore, during the Jingzhe season, you should eat less sour food and more sweet foods such as jujube and yam to nourish the spleen. You can make jujube porridge, yam porridge, etc. 》Explanation of the Jingzhe solar term agricultural proverb: The Waking of Zhe blows up the earth, and it becomes forty-five days colder. Although winter is over, the spring is still cold and it is difficult for all things to revive. When the Jingzhe Festival comes, the sound of thunder awakens the hibernating insects. The weather is gradually turning from cold to warm, and the fields in North China are becoming clear. Spring production reaches its climax, and people are busy with spring ploughing from south to north. Apply fertilizer and water to the wheat field, and then loosen the soil with a hoe.

There are agricultural proverbs such as "If the Rain Water comes early and the Spring Equinox comes late, it will be the right time to grow seedlings" and "Don't plant seeds if the Spring Equinox doesn't come." Jingzhe symbolizes the beginning of February. It is like a thunderclap out of the blue, awakening all the hibernating snakes, insects, rats and ants. The reptiles and ants in the house will respond and start looking for food everywhere. Therefore, in ancient times, on the day of Jingzhe, people would hold fragrant incense and mugwort and fumigate the four corners of their homes to use the fragrance to drive away snakes, insects, mosquitoes, rats and mold. Are there any dietary restrictions?(1) Avoid eating too much acid during the Jingzhe solar term: it is not conducive to the generation of Yang Qi and the circulation of Qi and blood . In traditional Chinese medicine, acidic foods are often used to treat symptoms such as spontaneous sweating and diarrhea, such as Cornus officinalis, which can astringe the essence and reduce sweat, and Gallnut, which can astringe the intestines and stop diarrhea. But at the same time, acidity also has astringent and firming properties.Eating too much acidic food and medicine will hinder the flow of qi in the human body and is not conducive to the growth of yang energy. Therefore, be careful when eating acidic foods and medicines to avoid disrupting the circulation of qi and blood. (2) Avoid eating raw or cold food during the Jingzhe solar term: it damages the Yang Qi . During the Jingzhe solar term, the Yang Qi begins to move, and the Yang Qi in the whole body is not yet sufficient. Cold food and medicine can easily damage the young Yang Qi of the human body, or in other words, it can damage the Shaoyang Fire (physiological fire) of the human body. It is not conducive to the smooth flow of qi in the human body. It is not advisable to consume too much cold drinks, cold fruits, raw and cold seafood, etc. |
