What are the customs during the Cold Dew season? What is the red leaf viewing during the Cold Dew season?
I walked through the autumn with light footsteps. The arrival of the Cold Dew solar term indicates that autumn is about to end. What are the customs of the Cold Dew season? What is the red leaf viewing during the Cold Dew season? In the beginning of September in the lunar calendar, when Cold Dew comes, "in September, the dew is cold and about to condense." The north has already entered late autumn. Shuimoxiansheng.com will accompany you through late autumn in September of the lunar calendar in 2019.What customs are there during the Cold Dew season?Cold Dew means that the temperature is lower than that of White Dew, the dew on the ground is colder and is about to condense into frost. The temperature is gradually dropping. The three solar terms of Bailu, Hanlu and Shuangjiang all represent the condensation of water vapor, and Hanlu is the transition of climate from cool to cold. At night, look up at the starry sky and you will find that the seasons have changed and the "Big Mars" (Antares in Scorpio), representing midsummer, has set. We can faintly hear the footsteps of winter.Cold Dew Customs: ——Drinking chrysanthemum wine: Cold Dew is close to the Double Ninth Festival, when chrysanthemums are in full bloom. In order to get rid of autumn dryness, some areas have the custom of drinking "chrysanthemum wine". This custom, along with climbing heights, gradually moved to the Double Ninth Festival. Chrysanthemum wine is made from chrysanthemum, glutinous rice and koji. It was called "longevity wine" in ancient times. It tastes cool and sweet, and has the effects of nourishing the liver, improving eyesight, strengthening the brain, and delaying aging. ——Autumn fishing in the south: Autumn fishing in the cold dew season is a favorite of people in the south. In southern my country, the heat is gone at this time of year and the sun is warm, making it a great time to travel, enjoy the flowers, eat crabs and go fishing. During the Cold Dew season, the temperature drops rapidly. The sun can no longer penetrate the deep water, so the fish swim to the shallow water areas where the water temperature is higher, hence the saying "fishing on the shore in autumn". ——Cricket fighting in the north: White Dew, Autumnal Equinox and Cold Dew are the peak periods of cricket fighting. Crickets are also called "crickets". Generally speaking, hearing crickets chirping means autumn has arrived and the weather is getting cooler, reminding people to prepare clothes for winter. Hence the saying "When crickets chirp, lazy women are startled." Emperor Xuande of the Ming Dynasty also loved cricket fighting, which caused a good cricket to cost tens of gold coins. If the emperor likes something, the common people will like it even more. Beijingers probably started playing crickets in the Ming Dynasty. Enjoy the red leaves during the Cold Dew Festival. What are red leaves?Viewing red leaves during Cold Dew: The continuous drop in temperature after Cold Dew turns the maple leaves in Beijing red. The mountains and forests are dyed red, it is the best time to view the red leaves. For Beijingers, climbing the Xiangshan Mountains to see the red leaves has become a traditional custom and the highlight of their autumn trips. In the golden autumn, the forests of Xiangshan Mountain are dyed with red leaves, which are as beautiful as rosy clouds and picturesque.——Red leaves, scientific name Huangtiao. It is an ornamental tree, mainly for its leaves. Favored by literati of all generations. A was first seen in Sima Xiangru's (Shanglin Fu), and can be found all over the country. In fact, when people appreciate red leaves, they not only like yellow holly, but also black cypress, red maple, torch, red leaf plum and other tree species. Strolling along the winding path and looking at the hillside, you will see clusters and pieces of red leaves, a colorful beauty. Impact of Cold Dew: After Cold Dew, the cold air in the north has gained a certain strength, most parts of China are under the control of cold high pressure, and the rainy season ends. The weather is often warm during the day and cool at night, with clear skies, which is very conducive to the autumn harvest. Thunderstorms have disappeared in most parts of mainland my country, and thunder can only be heard in parts of Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou. The precipitation in North China in October is generally only half of that in September or less, while in Northwest China it is only a few millimeters to more than 20 millimeters. Drought and low rainfall often make it difficult to sow winter wheat in time, becoming one of the main limiting factors for achieving high yields of dryland wheat. Hainan and the southwestern region generally still have continuous autumn rains at this time. In a few years, there will also be rainy weather in Jianghuai and Jiangnan, which will have a certain impact on the autumn harvest and planting. |
