Good days are always in the late autumn season, and the golden color always gives us the best confidence. The fortune teller website's almanac interprets every day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar.What does Frost Descent mean in 2017?Frost is one of the 24 solar terms in the lunar calendar. When this solar term comes, the weather gradually becomes colder and frost begins to appear. Frost's Descent usually falls on October 23rd of the Gregorian calendar every year. At this time, the first frost appeared in the Yellow River basin of China, and most areas were busy sowing crops such as wheat.In ancient my country, Frost Descent was divided into three stages: "In the first stage, jackals sacrifice animals; in the second stage, grass and trees turn yellow and fall; in the third stage, stinging insects all lie down." During this solar term, jackals will display their captured prey before eating it. Frost Descent occurs around October 23rd of the Gregorian calendar every year, when the sun reaches 210 degrees of the ecliptic longitude. Frost means the weather is getting colder and the dew condenses into frost. "Collected Explanations of the 72 Seasonal Changes" states: "In the middle of September, the air is cold and condensed, and the dew turns into frost." At this time, white frost had appeared in the Yellow River Basin in my country. Silver ice crystals were shining brightly on the thousands of miles of fertile fields. The leaves were turning yellow and falling. The ancient book “Explanation of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms” says: “When the weather becomes cold, frost falls, and the yin begins to condense.” It can be seen that “frost falls” means that the weather is gradually getting colder and frost begins to fall. In meteorology, the first frost in autumn is generally called "early frost" or "first frost", while the last frost in spring is called "late frost" or "final frost". The period from the last frost to the first frost is the frost-free period. Some people also call the early frost "chrysanthemum frost", because chrysanthemums are in full bloom at this time. Su Shi, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote a poem: "Thousands of trees are swept into yellow, only the lotus is fragrant alone."
