The solar terms are over, and this is the cycle of reincarnation
It's a great cold today.
The Great Cold is the last of the twenty-four solar terms.
The great cold is the end of the solar cycle, and the next seasonal cycle is opened, that is, the spring of the new year.
The ancients said: "The reverse pole of the cold is called the great cold." ”
"Great cold, big cold, no wind is also cold" "small cold, big cold, cold into a ball", these proverbs show that the great cold festival is also a cold period of the year.
At this time, the cold wave moved south in a big way, and wave after wave, the usual performance is: strong wind, low temperature, the snow on the ground does not melt, showing a cold scene of ice and snow, cold and frozen.
When it is cold, it is also a time to temper people's will.
In the past, on this day, people opened the windows widely, stopped the fire indoors, wore more clothes, and used their physical strength to resist the cold to enhance their physique.
It is said that this will freeze the bugs lying in the house, and the room will be exceptionally clean the following spring.
This "big" word in the great cold, in addition to emphasizing the degree of cold, also has the meaning of the end and the end, that is, the weather is cold again, and at this time it is also cold to the end, and things will be reversed, as the proverb says, "the cold reaches its peak, and the day will gradually warm up in the future."
Therefore, the great cold is both the reincarnation of the solar terms and the cycle of cold and warmth.
After the great cold, enter the spring
The ancients said: "Creation is wordless but sentient, and every cold is born in spring." ”
The great cold hides the news of spring, and in the extreme cold, there are spring colors that begin to sprout quietly, and the winter day of the north wind is nurturing a bright spring.
After the great cold, there will be a new spring.
In the cold season, "if you turn around, you will collide with the spring", and the spring is taking light steps towards us, quietly, quietly, and quietly!
Life is the same, ups and downs are like the rotation of the four seasons, there is always a difficult journey of cold and frozen, however, the cold fades to the earth to rejuvenate, after tempering can break the ground to rebirth, endure winter loneliness, and finally see the prosperity of March.
In life, how many seemingly insurmountable obstacles, how many seemingly unhealable sufferings, how many pains do not want to live, are not all the great cold in life?
Yes, life is difficult to escape the unexpected setbacks, failures and pains of the cold in fate, but as long as you have hope, be gentle with the world, survive the winter of Xiao Suo, and will usher in a vibrant spring!
No matter how cold the world is, as long as we have an open mind and a fiery heart that loves life, we will definitely walk through the cold and embrace warmth!
Sweep away the dust and clean the goods, remove the old cloth and the new
The great cold festival generally coincides with the year-end and year-end time of the lunar calendar, so the great cold time is mostly people's New Year's time, as the proverb says, "small cold and cold, killing pigs for the New Year" "After the big cold, it is another year".
According to traditional customs, every cold day, people began to be busy sweeping dust and cleaning things, removing old cloth and new cloth.
The proverb says: "When it is cold and cold, every house paints its walls and brushes away the ominousness; every household pastes the window and pastes it into the sun." ”
This cleaning work is usually called "de-aging", also commonly known as "sweeping dust".
In the process of cleaning the living room, the whole family is forbidden to speak, which is called "muffled sound and wealth"; cleaning garbage is not allowed to sweep out, it must be centrally handled, which is called "fat water does not flow into the field of outsiders".
Our hearts are also like a house, we have to go through a lot of things every day, happy, unhappy, all settled in the heart.
Over time, some painful emotions and unpleasant memories, if they have been filled in the heart, will make people depressed, pessimistic and disappointed.
Therefore, we should also often "sweep the dust" of our own minds, carry out a big cleaning, make the dark heart bright, throw away some unnecessary pain, and have more and greater space for happiness.
"Leng Yan Jing": "Sweeping the floor sweeps the heart, the heart does not sweep the air, everyone sweeps the heart, and everywhere in the world is impure." ”
People's hearts must also sweep away the dust, and only by abandoning their burdens can they move forward lightly and live more wonderfully.
If we regard life as a process of continuous cultivation, then we should have one eye outward, grasp the sophistication of human feelings, and let ourselves be at ease in life; one eye is inward, often self-examination and analysis, clean the mind, and keep the mind pure.
In this cold time, the wanderers who are out will soon embark on the journey home, return, reunion, reunion, we begin to miss all the beautiful things!
In this beautiful day when spring is coming and the new year is coming, may you be warm in three winters, may you be cold in spring, may you have lights in the dark, may you have umbrellas when it rains, and may you have love on the road of life!
