What are the taboos during Jingzhe?

【1】It is taboo to hear thunder before the Waking of Insects Day.
People living in the plains have a saying: "If thunder is heard before the Waking of Insects Day, people will eat dog food." That is to say, if you hear thunder before the Waking of Insects Day, it is a sign that this year will be a bad year, with a poor harvest, people will lack food, and they will even be forced to compete with dogs for food. Another folk song, "If there is thunder before the Waking of Insects, the clouds will not clear for 49 days," explains this. It means that if there is thunder before the Waking of Insects, it means that there may be abnormal weather with continuous rain and disasters will be prone to occur. This will not only delay the best time for spring sowing, but also this year's crops will fail due to the abnormal weather, and people's lives will be more difficult.
[2] It is taboo to hold weddings. According to folk customs, before and after the Waking of Insects, the god of thunder often goes out to perform his duties, and thunder rumbles from time to time, so it is forbidden to hold weddings during this period. Anyone who violates this rule will be punished by the God of Thunder, their marriage will not go smoothly, and their family will not be happy. Therefore, in order to avoid taboos, people generally do not go on blind dates, get engaged, or get married during this period.

What is the significance of Jingzhe?

[1] Regarding clothing: The weather turns warmer during the Jingzhe season, but the temperature difference between day and night is large. In addition, there are many "late spring cold" phenomena before and after the Jingzhe season. Especially on rainy days, limbs exposed to the sun are prone to local numbness, soreness, etc., which can cause arthritis over time. Therefore, you must pay attention to keeping warm and focus on "covering".
[2] In terms of diet, Jingzhe is the only one among the 24 solar terms that emphasizes "prevention" rather than "replenishment". Around the Jingzhe season, the weather gradually becomes warmer. As for diet, it should be light and mild, and it should follow the nature of the liver, benefit the spleen, and keep the five internal organs in harmony. On the day of Jingzhe, people pay attention to eating pears, which are believed to improve the spleen and strengthen the body to resist the invasion of bacteria. In terms of daily diet and health care, it is recommended to eat more light foods that are high in plant protein and rich in vitamins. For example: spring bamboo shoots, spinach, bitter gourd, yam, lotus seeds, white fungus, etc.
【3】Exercise
"When spring thunder sounds, all things grow." All things come back to life in spring. After the Waking of Insects, people often feel tired, weak, drowsy and wake up late in the morning. This is what people often call "spring sleepiness." However, we should follow the natural law of the rising of spring sun, make ourselves happy, strengthen our physical fitness, go to bed early and get up early.
