What are the characteristics of the Autumnal Equinox? When is it in 2019?
An agricultural proverb says: White Dew comes early, Cold Dew comes late, and the Autumnal Equinox is the right time to plant wheat. The Autumnal Equinox is very important for farming. So, what are the characteristics of the Autumnal Equinox? When is the Autumnal Equinox in 2019 ? As the eighth month of the lunar calendar arrives, the feeling of autumn becomes stronger. It sneaks in on a foggy dawn and disappears in the hot afternoon. What will the eighth month of the lunar calendar be like in 2019? Please visit Mr. Shui Mo's website for a more detailed introduction.When is the Autumnal Equinox in 2019?According to the calendar, the autumnal equinox time in 2019 is:Gregorian calendar date: Monday, September 23 Lunar calendar date: August 25, 2019 What are the characteristics of the autumnal equinox?Climate characteristics: The temperature difference between day and night gradually increases, and the temperature drops day by day . <br /> The ancient book "Collected Explanations of the 72 Lunar Calendars" says: "In the middle of August... the explanation is about the Spring Equinox." In the book "Spring and Autumn Annals: Yin and Yang In and Out, Parts 1 and 2", it says: "The Autumnal Equinox is when Yin and Yang are equal, so the day and night are equal and the cold and heat are balanced." In ancient my country, the Autumnal Equinox was divided into three stages: "The first stage is when the thunder begins to subside; the second stage is when hibernating insects begin to hide; the third stage is when the water begins to dry up." The ancients believed that thunder was caused by the abundance of yang energy. After the autumnal equinox, yin energy began to flourish, so thunder no longer occurred.A farmer's proverb says: "Every autumn rain brings a chill" and "The night of the White Dew and the Autumnal Equinox is colder every night." "In August, the Yanmen Pass opens, and the geese bring frost under their feet." In years when the temperature in Northeast China drops early, it is not surprising to see frost during the Autumnal Equinox. On the day of the autumnal equinox, the sun is at 180 degrees of ecliptic longitude, the sunlight almost directly hits the equator, and the day and night are almost equal in length in most parts of the world. At this time, the temperature in the southern region generally drops below 22℃, entering the cool autumn. “Every autumn rain brings a chill.” Gusts of cold air moving southward meet the gradually weakening warm and humid air, causing repeated rainfall and a drop in temperature. In the northern part of the Northwest Plateau, the minimum daily temperature has dropped below 0℃, and you can already see the magnificent snow scene with flying snowflakes in the sky and the earth covered in silver. There is a lot of continuous rain in the autumn in the southern region and Liangshan Prefecture, and the moisture damage is serious, which has a great impact on the autumn harvest, autumn plowing and autumn planting. We must seize the sunny days to harvest and dry the crops, tidy up the embankments and prevent waterlogging, and ensure the quality and progress of the "three autumns" production. At the same time, we must make full use of the cloudy, rainy, low-light autumn weather conditions and the good soil conditions to plant trees and strive to increase the survival rate of seedlings. From the day of the autumnal equinox, the climate presents three main characteristics: The position of direct sunlight continues to move from the equator to the southern hemisphere, and the daytime is shorter than the nighttime in all parts of the northern hemisphere until the shortest day of the year is reached on the winter solstice. The temperature difference between day and night will gradually increase, and the range will be higher than 10℃; The temperature drops day by day, getting colder day by day, and gradually entering the late autumn season. The situation in the Southern Hemisphere is exactly the opposite. How is farming done during the Autumnal Equinox?The rapid drop in temperature in autumn makes the busy season of autumn harvest, autumn plowing and autumn planting particularly intense. During the Autumnal Equinox, cotton bolls appear and tobacco leaves turn from green to yellow, which is a good time to harvest. Winter wheat sowing has begun in North China, and the Yangtze River Basin and vast areas in the south are busy harvesting late rice, plowing the land when the weather is sunny, and preparing for rapeseed sowing. Drought, little rain or continuous rain during the autumnal equinox is the main unfavorable factor affecting the normal progress of the "three autumns". In particular, continuous rain can cause the crops that are about to be harvested to fall over, rot or sprout, causing serious losses. The key to the busy three autumns is to start early. Timely harvesting of autumn crops can prevent the damage of early frost and continuous rain. Timely early sowing of winter crops can make full use of the heat resources before winter, cultivate strong seedlings to safely overwinter, and lay the foundation for a good harvest in the coming year. "If the rice does not bloom by the Autumnal Equinox, it will be harvested and fed to the cows." The double-season late rice in the south is heading and flowering, which is a critical period for yield formation. The "Autumnal Equinox cold" weather caused by early low temperature and rain is the main threat to the flowering and fruiting of the double-season late rice, and we must do a good job in forecasting and prevention.Different people have different destinies. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." We cannot change our destiny, but we can change our fortune. Want to know your fortune in 2019?
