Jingzhe is one of the 24 solar terms in my country. The arrival of Jingzhe often means that we are not far from spring. The arrival of spring always makes everything glow with moving brilliance. So what day is Jingzhe in 2018? The Fortune Teller website provides you with more information related to the first month of the lunar calendar in 2018. You are welcome to learn more about it!When is the Waking of Insects in 2018?The Waking of Insects in 2018 is on March 5, 2018 at 23:28:06, the 18th day of the first lunar month in 2018, which is Monday.Jingzhe, formerly known as "Qizhe", is the third solar term in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar, marking the beginning of mid-spring; when the sun reaches 345° of the ecliptic longitude. "Collected Explanations of the 72 Seasonal Changes in the Lunar Calendar" states: "The second month is the season when all things emerge from the shock of thunder. Thunder is the beginning of the year, so it is called the Waking of Insects, because hibernating insects are startled and flee." Before this, animals hibernate in the ground during the winter, without eating or drinking, which is called "hibernation"; when the "Qingzhe Festival" comes, the spring thunder in the sky awakens the hibernating animals, which is called "startling". Therefore, during the Jingzhe Festival, hibernating insects wake up, the weather turns warmer, spring thunder gradually appears, and most parts of China enter the spring farming season. In ancient times, the Waking of Insects was divided into three stages: "The first stage is the beginning of peach blossoms; the second stage is the singing of orioles; the third stage is the transformation of eagles into doves." The flower signals represented by the three stages of the Waking of Insects are: "The first stage is peach blossoms, the second stage is apricot blossoms, and the third stage is roses." What do the three signs of Jingzhe mean?Peach blossoms begin to bloom: The peach blossoms turn red and gradually become more prosperous from now on.The oriole is singing. The eagle turns into a dove: the eagle begins to hide quietly to breed offspring, while the doves that were originally dormant begin to sing to attract mates. The ancients did not see the eagle, but the doves around seemed to increase in number all of a sudden, so they mistakenly thought that the eagle had turned into a dove. Jingzhe is a solar term that reflects natural phenological phenomena. Its literal meaning is: the sudden sound of spring thunder awakens the animals hibernating in the soil. During the Jingzhe season, the temperature rises, the rainfall increases, and farmers are busy. Except for the Northeast and Northwest regions of my country which are still covered in snow in winter, the average temperature in most other regions has risen above 0 degrees Celsius. The average daily temperature in North China is 3-6 degrees Celsius, above 8 degrees Celsius in Jiangnan region, and 10-15 degrees Celsius in Southwest and South China. It has long been a warm spring. With the arrival of Jingzhe, most parts of my country enter the busy season of spring farming. However, it should be noted that although the temperature rises rapidly during Jingzhe, the increase in rainfall is limited. The total rainfall during the Jingzhe period in central and northwestern South China is only about 10 mm. After the perennial winter drought, spring drought often begins to appear. |
