When the Beginning of Autumn comes, the paulownia trees start to shed their leaves, hence the idiom "falling leaves indicate the coming of autumn". The Beginning of Autumn has arrived, but it does not mean that the autumn weather has arrived. China has a vast territory. Although the climate varies from place to place, most areas have not yet entered the autumn climate at this time. Moreover, the last of the hottest days of the year is on the third day after the beginning of autumn. Especially in southern China, it is still summer during this solar term. At the same time, as the typhoon rain season is gradually passing, the temperature is even hotter. Therefore, the period from the beginning of autumn to the autumnal equinox is also called the "long summer."
In the south, there is a custom of "eating autumn melons on the first day of autumn". People eat more watermelons on this day of autumn to prevent autumn dryness, and it has become a custom over time. The Capital Records published during the Republic of China period recorded: "The day before the beginning of autumn, eating watermelon is called 'eating autumn'." It also means welcoming the arrival of autumn.

Poem "Beginning of Autumn": "A single leaf of the Chinese parasol tree heralds the coming of autumn, and the rice fields talk of a good harvest. Although it is not midsummer, the tiger is still crouching, and the cicadas are singing non-stop."
In ancient my country, the beginning of autumn was divided into three phases: "The first phase is the arrival of cool breezes; the second phase is the appearance of white dew; the third phase is the chirping of cicadas."
Cool breeze arrives: people will feel cool when the wind blows, and the wind at this time is different from the hot wind in summer.
White Dew: There will be fog on the earth in the morning.
The chirping of cicadas: The cicadas that chirp in response to the cold weather in autumn also begin to chirp. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
