Among the 24 solar terms, there must basically be a small one after a big one. However, after "Xiaoman", there is no "Daman". Why is there only Xiaoman but no Daman? For example, how many days are left until the Grain Full solar term in 2019? By April, everything is lush and green. Shuimoxiansheng.com takes you to experience every day of April in the lunar calendar in 2019.Why is there only Xiaoman but not Daman?As for the 24 solar terms named after "small" and "big", if there is "small", there must be "big", which is what "small goes and big comes" said in "The Book of Changes·Tai Gua". For example, after "Xiaoshu" there is "Dashu", and after "Xiaohan" there is "Dahan", but after "Xiaoman", it is not "Daman" but "Mangzhong".Ma Yongqing of the Song Dynasty recorded the doubts of people at that time in his book "Lazy True Son": "The names of the 24 solar terms can all be explained, but there are different opinions on Grain in Ear and Grain in Ear." Lang Ying of the Ming Dynasty raised the question more directly in the voice of people at that time in his book "Heaven and Earth" in the Seventh Revision of Classified Drafts": "The 24 solar terms include Lesser Heat, Greater Heat, Lesser Cold, Greater Cold, Lesser Snow, and Greater Snow. Why is there Lesser Heat but not Greater Heat?" From the actual correspondence point of view, "Mangzhong" is the imaginary "Daman", which forms a corresponding relationship with "Xiaoman" in terms of solar terms. So, why choose "Mangzhong" and abandon "Daman"? The ancient calendar states: "The first day of the fifth month is the Grain in Ear Festival. All things grow but are not fully grown at this time. Wheat is just at Grain in Ear Festival but not fully ripe at this time, hence the name." The explanation given for Grain in Ear Festival in the Collection of Explanations of the Seventy-two Marquises of the Lunar Calendar is: "It is the festival of May, when the awned grains can be planted." In the Ming Dynasty, Gu Yuanqing's "Yanbao Outan" believed that the two solar terms of Xiaoman and Mangzhong "both refer to wheat", meaning that they both refer to the maturity and harvest of wheat. Therefore, the ancients replaced the Daman solar term with the Grain in Ear solar term, which also means the principle that fullness is prone to harm in the Eight Trigrams, reflecting the wisdom of the ancients. How many days until Grain Full in 2019?The Grain Full solar term in 2019 is on May 21st at 15:58:29 in the Gregorian calendar, which is April 17th in the lunar calendar, 26 days away from today.The main weather characteristics before and after Grain Full are high temperature, high humidity and heavy rain. Therefore, it is extremely important to prevent heat and moisture, and pay attention to preventing mildew on food and clothing. In addition, around Grain Full, cold and warm weather frequently collide, and severe convective weather also occurs from time to time. You must be especially vigilant against heavy rain, strong winds, thunder and lightning and other weather conditions. Generally speaking, if the cold air from the north can penetrate into the southern regions of my country at this time, and the warm and humid air flow in the south is also strong, it will easily cause heavy rain or extremely heavy rain in southern China. Therefore, the late period of the Grain Full solar term is often a tense period for flood prevention in these areas. 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."
