What solar terms are there in the first month of 2019? What should I pay attention to?

Rainwater (15th day of the first lunar month - 19th day of the second lunar month)
Rain Water is the second solar term among the 24 solar terms. It is located around the 15th day of the first lunar month every year (February 18-20 in the Gregorian calendar), when the sun reaches 330° of the ecliptic longitude. "Collected Explanations of the 72 Seasonal Changes" states: "In the middle of the first month, heaven produces water. The beginning of spring belongs to wood, but what produces wood must be water, so the Rain Water follows the Beginning of Spring. And since the east wind has thawed the ice, it dissipates and turns into rain." During the Rain Water solar term, the ground's moisture gradually rises, and dew and frost appear in the mornings. Therefore, in view of such climatic characteristics, dietary adjustments should focus on regulating the spleen and stomach and dispelling wind and dampness. Because the climate is relatively cold at this time, you can take appropriate supplements. Honey, dates, yam, white fungus, etc. are all suitable supplements for this solar term.
Jingzhe (January 30th - March 6th)
Jingzhe, formerly known as "Qizhe", is the third solar term in the 24 solar terms, marking the beginning of mid-spring; when the sun reaches 345° of the ecliptic longitude. "Collection of Explanations of the 72 Seasonal Changes" states: "The second month...all things come out of the thunder, so it is called the Waking of Insects, because the hibernating insects are startled and flee." "Spring thunder scares away all insects", but the warm climate is conducive to the occurrence and spread of many diseases and pests, and weeds in the fields also sprout one after another. Pest and disease control and inter-row cultivation and weeding should be carried out in time. As the saying goes, when peach blossoms bloom, swine fever comes. We should also pay attention to the prevention and control of poultry and livestock diseases. At this time, the temperature rises rapidly and spring thunder has gradually been heard in most areas of the Yangtze River Basin. In most parts of southern my country, there is rain all year round, and during the Waking of Insects, you can also hear the first thunder of spring.

What should we pay attention to in maintaining health during the Rain Water solar term?

Before and after the Rain Water, you should focus on maintaining your spleen. Regulate the liver and keep the liver qi harmonious and smooth. Maintain a balanced diet and keep the protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, etc. in the food in appropriate proportions. At the same time, you should keep the five flavors balanced, try to eat less spicy food, eat more fresh vegetables, etc. Secondly, pay attention to strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness. It nourishes the spleen internally and clears away dampness externally, thus achieving the purpose of nourishing the spleen. It is chilly in spring and humidity usually brings "cold" with it, so you must keep warm before and after the rain and avoid catching cold. At the same time, eat less raw and cold foods to protect the yang energy of the spleen and stomach. You can eat more foods such as crucian carp, carrots, yam, millet, etc. to achieve the purpose of strengthening the spleen. During the rainy season, we must also prevent "late spring cold".

What should we pay attention to in health preservation during the Jingzhe solar term?

During the Jingzhe season, the liver yang energy of the human body gradually rises, and the yin blood is relatively insufficient. Health preservation should follow the characteristics of the rise of yang energy and the beginning of the birth of all things, so that one's spirit, emotions, qi and blood can be as relaxed and smooth, and full of vitality as in spring. From the dietary perspective, during the Jingzhe season, one’s diet and daily life should be in accordance with the nature of the liver, help the spleen, and keep the five internal organs in harmony. It is better to eat more light food rich in plant protein and vitamins, and less animal fat food. You can eat more foods such as duck blood, spinach, aloe vera, radish, bitter gourd, wood ear vegetable, celery, rapeseed, yam, lotus seeds, and white fungus. Since spring corresponds to the liver, improper health care can damage the liver. Modern epidemiological surveys have also confirmed that Jingzhe is a high-incidence season for liver disease. In addition, diseases such as influenza, meningitis, chickenpox, shingles, and hemorrhagic fever are prone to break out during this solar term, so we must strictly prevent such diseases.
