When is the End of Heat solar term and what are the solar term activities?
Chu means to stop. The hot summer stops here. That is to say, Chushu means the end of summer heat, which means summer is about to pass and autumn is about to come. So, when is the Beginning of Autumn in 2018? The fiery July gathers the colors of fire; the passionate July is overflowing with the breath of youth. The fortune teller website takes you to appreciate every day of the seventh lunar month in 2018.When is the End of Heat solar term?Chushu, the fourteenth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms in the Chinese lunar calendar, occurs when the sun reaches 150° of the ecliptic longitude (August 23 in the Gregorian calendar). On the day of the Beginning of Autumn, the sun’s direct point has moved southward from 23°26′ north latitude on the day of the Summer Solstice to 11°28′ north latitude, and the sun’s altitude at noon has also dropped from 73°32′ on the Summer Solstice to 61°34′. That is to say, the entire height of the sun has begun to continuously decrease and has also begun to move continuously to the south. In terms of temperature, the summer subtropical high pressure has begun to gradually retreat to the western Pacific Ocean, and the temperature in most parts of the country has begun to gradually drop.What activities are there during the End of Heat solar term?1. Traveling Because the solar term Chushu represents the end of summer and the coming of autumn, the folk activities of this solar term are mostly related to welcoming autumn. For example, there has always been a saying among the people that "watch clever clouds in July and August", which means "traveling to welcome autumn". 2. Fishing Festival: This festival is usually held by fishermen in coastal areas, because the period after the Beginning of Autumn is the harvest season. For example, in the coastal areas of Zhejiang Province, a grand fishing ceremony is held on the day when the fishing moratorium in the East China Sea ends to send off the fishermen to go out to sea. 3. Release river lanterns. Because the Beginning of Autumn is right before the Ghost Festival, and according to the old folk saying, this is the time when all ghosts go out to roam. So, at this time, in order to save the drowning ghosts and other wandering ghosts in the water, people will release some river lanterns in the hope that they can be reborn. |
