How to distinguish the two solar terms?The difference between light snow and heavy snow: different time1. Minor Snow, the 20th solar term in the 24 solar terms, usually falls between November 22nd and 23rd of the Gregorian calendar every year. When the sun's ecliptic longitude is 240°, the temperature has dropped significantly and snow begins to fall in most areas, but it is not yet the season for heavy snow, so it is called light snow. 2. Heavy Snow, the 21st solar term among the 24 solar terms, usually falls between December 6th and 8th of the Gregorian calendar every year. When the sun's ecliptic longitude reaches 255°, not only will it snow, but the snow will often fall heavily and over a wide area, so it is called heavy snow. The difference between light snow and heavy snow: three different signs 1. Three signs of Minor Snow: The first sign is that the rainbow disappears; the second sign is that the air temperature rises and the ground temperature drops; the third sign is that the sky is closed and winter comes. Meaning: The temperature drops, with more snow and less rain, so rainbows are no longer visible; also, because the yang energy in the sky rises and the yin energy underground falls, the yin and yang are out of touch, and all things lose their vitality; thus, the heaven and earth are blocked, and a cold winter begins. 2. Three signs of heavy snow: the first sign is that the cuckoos and gulls stop singing; the second sign is that the tigers begin to mate; the third sign is that the lychees grow out. Meaning: Due to the cold weather, the cuckoo no longer sings; this is the time when the Yin energy is at its peak, and as the saying goes, everything that rises must decline; the Yang energy has begun to stir, so the tiger begins to show courtship behavior; and the orchid begins to feel the stirring of the Yang energy and sprouts new buds. The difference between Xiaoxue and Daxue: different eating habits Food customs during the Minor Snow solar term <br /> 1. There is a folk custom of "pickle vegetables during the Minor Snow solar term and pickle meat during the Major Snow solar term." During the light snow, the temperature drops rapidly and the weather becomes very dry, which is a good time to pickle various vegetables and bacon. 2. In southern China, there is a custom of eating glutinous rice cakes during the Lesser Snow solar term. On the one hand, it is to celebrate the harvest, thank the gods, and pray for good weather in the coming year; on the other hand, it is to reward oneself for a year's hard work. Food customs during the Great Snow Festival <br /> 1. When the Great Snow Festival arrives, every household is busy pickling bacon. Add salt, star anise, cinnamon, pepper, sugar, etc. into a pan and fry until cooked. Then press it with a stone and put it in a cool, dark place. Take it out after half a month, put the marinated juice into the pot, add water and boil it, skim off the foam, put in dried poultry and livestock meat, pour in the brine, and press it with a big stone. Take it out after ten days, hang it under the eaves facing the sun to dry in order to welcome the New Year. 2. "Nourish yourself in winter and fight the tiger in spring." The heavy snow reminds people to start nourishing themselves. The Big Snow solar term is here, and people in Nanjing need to eat mutton as a tonic. Mutton has the effects of dispelling cold, nourishing the body, replenishing qi and strengthening deficiency, promoting blood circulation, and enhancing the ability to resist cold. |
