On this day, the sun almost directly shines on the earth's equator, and day and night are almost equal everywhere in the world. The spring equinox was also called "midday", "equal length of day and night", and "mid-spring moon" in ancient times. "The History of Ming Dynasty·Calendar 1" said: "The equinox is the point where the ecliptic and the red intersect. When the sun reaches this point, the day and night are equal." Therefore, the significance of the vernal equinox is, firstly, that the day and night are equal in one day, 12 hours each; secondly, in ancient times, the spring season lasted from the beginning of spring to the beginning of summer, and the vernal equinox is in the middle of the three months of spring, dividing the spring season equally.In ancient China, the Spring Equinox was divided into three stages: "The first stage is the arrival of the Yuan bird; the second stage is the sound of thunder; the third stage is the beginning of lightning." This means that after the Spring Equinox, swallows will fly from the south, and there will be thunder and lightning in the sky when it rains. The Spring Equinox is recorded in the ancient Chinese calendar as: "Three days before the Spring Equinox, the sun enters the equator." What is the origin of the Spring Equinox?The Spring Equinox is a festival and sacrificial celebration. Ancient emperors had the ritual of worshiping the sun in spring and the moon in autumn. The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty offered sacrifices to the Sun at the Sun Altar. "Book of Rites": "Sacrifice the sun on the altar." Kong Yingda's commentary: "It refers to the vernal equinox." Pan Rongbi of the Qing Dynasty wrote in The Chronicles of the Capital: “Sacrifices to the sun on the Spring Equinox and to the moon on the Autumn Equinox are grand national ceremonies, and scholars and common people are not allowed to offer sacrifices on their own.In folk activities, it is generally regarded as the official start of outing.
