Bailu is the first solar term in September of the Gregorian calendar. Dew is water droplets formed by condensation of water vapor on the ground or near-earth objects due to a drop in temperature. Therefore, Bailu actually indicates that the weather has turned cooler. So, when is Bailu in 2022? Is it better to have an odd or even number for the White Dew date?

For example: The date of White Dew in 2016 = [16×0.2422+7.646]-[16/4]=11.5212-4=7.5212, September 7 is the White Dew. Exception: add 1 day to the calculated result in 1927. Is it better to have an odd or even number for the White Dew date?Originated from: "When an odd Bailu falls, the ground remains wet; when an even Bailu falls, the grains dry up and are stored in the warehouse."Judging from the literal meaning, when the date of Bailu is an odd number (according to the lunar calendar), the ground is not dry, which means there is rainfall. On the contrary, if the date of Bailu is an even number, the millet is relatively dry and can be stored in the warehouse. The millet mentioned here not only refers to millet, but also other crops that mature before and after Bailu. However, this may only be a statement in some regions, and not applicable to the whole country. You can think about it, my country has a large area, and not only the weather on the day of Bailu has sunny, cloudy and rainy days, but the weather in different regions every day is also different. Every day there are sunny areas and rainy areas. If we only rely on whether the date of Bailu is odd or even to predict the subsequent weather, it is not very rigorous. Of course, since the proverb has been passed down, it shows that it has certain significance. As mentioned above, it may only be a regional saying in some places, and it has certain reference significance in some areas. Therefore, for everyone, the saying "If the White Dew comes in an odd number, the ground will not dry out; if the White Dew comes in an even number, the grain will dry up in the warehouse" can be used as a reference. White Dew Customs: Collecting DewThe Chinese people have the custom of "collecting dew" during the White Dew solar term. In the Ming Dynasty, Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "When the autumn dew is abundant, collect it in a plate and fry it into candy, which can prolong one's life and prevent hunger." "Collect the autumn dew on the grass before it drizzles, which can cure all diseases, stop thirst, make one feel light and not hungry, and make the muscles smooth." "Dew on the flowers makes one look good." Therefore, collecting the dew has become the most special "ritual" of Bailu. |
