Lixia is the seventh solar term in the twenty-four solar terms of the lunar calendar and the first solar term of summer. It marks the official start of the Mengxia season. It is when the sun reaches 45 degrees of the ecliptic longitude. When the Dipper points to the southeast, it is the beginning of summer. All things grow at this time, hence the name the beginning of summer. "Collection of Explanations of the 72 Lunar Calendars" states: "The beginning of summer is the festival of April. The meaning of the word 'beginning' is the same as that of 'spring'. Summer means 'fake'. At this time, everything is fake and great."In astronomy, the Beginning of Summer marks the farewell to spring and the beginning of summer. People usually regard the Beginning of Summer as an important solar term when the temperature rises significantly, the hot summer is approaching, thunderstorms increase, and crops enter the peak growth season. The solar term Lixia was established in the late Warring States Period (239 BC), heralding the change of seasons and the beginning of summer. Around the beginning of summer, the temperature in North China and Northwest China rises rapidly, but there is still not much precipitation. In addition, spring is windy, evaporation is strong, and the dry atmosphere and soil often seriously affect the normal growth of crops. In particular, the dry and hot winds before and after wheat filling and milk maturity are important disastrous weather that lead to reduced production. Timely irrigation is a key measure to combat drought and prevent disasters. "Three days after the beginning of summer, the ground should be weeded." At this time, weeds grow very fast, and "if you don't weed one day, you won't be able to weed for three days." Intertillage and weeding can not only remove weeds and resist drought and prevent waterlogging, but also increase ground temperature and accelerate the decomposition of soil nutrients. It is of great significance to promote the healthy growth of crops such as cotton, corn, sorghum, and peanuts in the seedling stage. After the beginning of summer, it is a critical period for large-scale planting of early rice, and the arrival of rain and the amount of rainfall during this period are closely related to the future harvest. There is a folk saying that goes, "If it doesn't rain at the beginning of summer, the plow and harrow will be hung high." "If it doesn't rain at the beginning of summer, there will be no rice in the pestle." There is also a folk custom of weighing oneself out of fear of the summer heat. In Jiangxi, there is also a custom of drinking tea at the beginning of summer. It is said that if you don't drink tea at the beginning of summer, you will suffer all summer. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people should adapt to the changes in the weather at the turn of spring and summer and pay special attention to the heart. The heart is a yang organ and controls yang energy. The heart's yang energy can promote blood circulation and maintain human life activities. The heart's yang and heat energy not only maintains its own physiological functions, but also has a warming effect on the entire body. The body's water metabolism, sweat regulation, etc. are inseparable from the important role of heart yang. Summary: The above is about the date of the Beginning of Summer in 2017.
