The Fortune Teller website takes you to experience the second month of the lunar calendar in 2018!What are the taboos during the Spring Equinox in 2018? What can and cannot be done?As the saying goes, "Don't plow the fields without rain on the Spring Equinox, and don't plant gardens without rain on the Autumnal Equinox", "West winds on the Spring Equinox mean there will be rainy days and cloudy weather", and "Southwest winds early on the Spring Equinox mean there will be a typhoon or insect pest." The temperature begins to rise during the Spring Equinox, the weather in the north has warmed up, the ground's air has risen, the frozen soil has completely melted, and the soil is loose and breathable. It is a good time for sowing. Spring rain is needed after sowing, so it is best not to have no rain or to have sunny days during the Spring Equinox. People often plant trees during the Spring Equinox. If the day is sunny, nothing will grow. In some places, people are forbidden to carry manure, wash clothes by the river, or dry clothes on the Spring Equinox. These are related to the hope for cloudy and rainy days during the Spring Equinox.In Ya'an and Mingshan in Sichuan, farmers and their families have to rest on the Spring Equinox. They are not allowed to engage in any production activities, such as digging the ground, moving needles, or sweeping the floor. People in Shandong area often plant trees on the Spring Equinox, so they avoid sunny days on the Spring Equinox. It is believed that if the weather is sunny on the Spring Equinox, nothing will grow. The She ethnic group avoids carrying manure, washing clothes in the river, or hanging them out to dry on the Spring Equinox. Thunder begins to appear on the Spring Equinox. The ancients believed that men and women should not sleep in the same room at this time, as thunder would have an adverse effect on their sexual relationships. Therefore, (later, the boatman Si Shao said in "Qimin Yaoshu. Miscellaneous Sayings 30": "During the Spring Equinox, thunder sounds. Prepare for it for five days and sleep separately inside and outside." Sun's note: "If you don't avoid it, you will give birth to an unhealthy child." From Sun's note, we can know that sleeping separately inside and outside, men and women cannot have the same room. Violating this taboo will result in unhealthy children. This has instead harmed the ancient people's inexplicable fear of nature and has no scientific basis. Spring Equinox EggIt is still difficult to verify how the game of standing eggs upright during the Spring Equinox, which is called a "Chinese custom", became a "world game".The "Spring Equinox Egg Standing" game is simple, easy and fun: choose a smooth and symmetrical fresh egg that has been laid just four or five days ago, and gently stand it upright on the table. Although there are many failures, there are also many successes. The Spring Equinox becomes the best time to play the egg-standing game, hence the saying "When the Spring Equinox comes, the eggs are pretty." The upright egg looks so beautiful. Why is it easy for an egg to stand upright on the Spring Equinox? Although there are many theories, the scientific reasons behind them are not very long. First of all, the vernal equinox is a day when the day and night are of equal length in the northern and southern hemispheres. The earth's axis, which is tilted at 66-50, and the orbital plane of the earth's revolution around the sun are in a state of relative balance of forces, which is conducive to standing eggs upright. Secondly, the vernal equinox is in the middle of spring, which is neither too cold nor too hot, with red flowers and green grass. People feel relaxed, their minds are quick, their movements are agile, and it is easy to successfully stand an egg upright. More importantly, the surface of the egg is uneven, with many protruding "hills". The "hill" is about 0.03 mm high, and the distance between the "peaks" is between 0.5 and 0.8 mm. According to the principle that three points form a triangle and determine a plane, as long as you find three "hills" and the triangle formed by these three "hills", and make the center of gravity of the egg pass through this triangle, then the egg can stand upright. In addition, it is best to choose eggs that are 4 to 5 days after they are laid. This is because at this time the yolk band of the egg is relaxed, the yolk sinks, and the weight of the egg decreases, which is conducive to the uprightness of the egg. The egg's symmetrical and smooth curves are the reason why it is difficult to stand upright, but also the reason for its charm. Leonardo da Vinci, the famous European Renaissance painter, practiced drawing egg curves every day for more than two years without sleep or food. This laid a solid foundation for his later successful creation of Mona Lisa's mysterious smile. |
