Chinese zodiac signs are: Bingshen year, Xinchou month, Xinyou day. The Beginning of Spring is the first solar term in the 24 solar terms in the lunar calendar. When the sun reaches 315° of the ecliptic longitude, it is called the Beginning of Spring. The ancients designated the Beginning of Spring as the first of the 24 solar terms. On the day of the Beginning of Spring, if you look up at the starry sky at 7 o'clock in the evening, you can see that the handle of the Big Dipper is pointing to the northeast, which is at an azimuth of 45 degrees, which the ancients called the direction of Gen (one of the Eight Trigrams).The "Li" in Lichun means start, and "Chun" means season, so Lichun means the beginning of the spring season. There are agricultural proverbs that say "Spring starts at the 69th day" and "When the frost falls, winter comes, and spring starts after 45 days". From the winter solstice, the 9th day of the 9th month is 45 days long, so the beginning of spring is exactly the beginning of the 69th day. The period from this day until the beginning of summer has always been called "spring" by us. As the saying goes, "A year's plan begins with spring." The Beginning of Spring has been a traditional festival since ancient times. The Chinese people, from the government to the general public, attach great importance to it, and welcoming the spring on the day of the Beginning of Spring has a history of more than 3,000 years. At the beginning of spring, the emperor personally led the three dukes, nine ministers, princes and officials to the eastern suburbs to welcome spring and pray for a good harvest. After returning, he should reward his ministers and issue decrees to benefit the people. This activity influenced the common people and became a national activity to welcome the Spring Festival from generation to generation. On the day of the Beginning of Spring, "the sun and the warm weather awaken all creatures, and all things enter spring." After the Beginning of Spring, all things come back to life and become full of vitality, and the four seasons begin from then on. There is such a legend in ancient times: when the beginning of spring is approaching, the county magistrate will take local celebrities to dig a hole in the ground, and then put feathers, chicken feathers and other light materials in the pit. At a certain time, the feathers and chicken feathers in the pit will float up from the pit. This moment is the beginning of spring, and people will start setting off firecrackers to celebrate, wishing for good weather and a good harvest in the next year. The temperature rises after the beginning of spring and the busy spring farming season begins in most parts of the country. At the Beginning of Spring, the southern branch of the westerly jet stream in East Asia has begun to weaken, and the severe winter weather is about to end. However, the intensity and position of the northern branch of the westerly jet stream have remained basically unchanged, the Mongolian cold high pressure and the Aleutian low pressure are still relatively strong, and strong winds and cooling are still the main prevailing weather conditions. However, during the intervals between the influence of strong cold air, the frequency of southerly winds increased, accompanied by a significant rise in temperature. The Beginning of Spring is a point in time or a period of time. Chinese tradition divides the fifteen days of the Beginning of Spring into three stages: "The first stage is when the east wind thaws the ice, the second stage is when stinging insects begin to move, and the third stage is when fish swim up carrying ice." This means that the east wind brings warmth and the earth begins to thaw. Five days after the beginning of spring, hibernating insects slowly wake up in their holes. Five days later, the ice in the river begins to melt, and the fish start to swim to the surface of the water. At this time, there are still some broken ice pieces that have not completely melted on the water surface, floating on the water as if they were carried by the fish.
