Today's Great Cold Festival, the Great Cold is the last of the twenty-four solar terms. The sun has a yellow longitude of 300°;
It falls on January 20-21 of the Gregorian calendar. Big cold, like small cold, is also a solar term that indicates the degree of coldness of the weather, and big cold is the meaning of cold weather to the extreme. The cold is not cold, and the people and horses are uneasy.
The great cold comes at the end of the year, winter goes to spring, and once the great cold passes, a new cycle begins. The great cold means that it is almost the end of winter, and the winter in our minds is generally snowy and frozen for thousands of miles. Especially at the end of the winter, it will be particularly cold for a few days, and there is really a feeling of cold wind, so that people can feel that they are living in winter.
If the weather is not particularly cold on a cold day, it means that the weather is abnormal, which will make people feel particularly frightened, because then the cold cycle will be prolonged, which is not good for people and animals and plants. In the past, I often heard the old people in the village say "spring cold".
If the cold cycle is extended to after the beginning of spring, then the next year will not be particularly good. After the spring, everything awakens and crops grow. Sufficient light and temperature are required. If the weather does not warm up and continues to be cold, the dormancy period of the plant will also be extended, the crops will not have a good harvest, and some plants just encounter a cold current during the growth period, because they cannot resist this cold current, they will freeze to death, which directly affects the autumn harvest and leads to crop yield reduction.
A light cup of tea, tea smoke, time trance, thin wind, blowing through the quiet of the small countryside. We are still the children who count the days and look forward to the New Year. At that time, the time was light, and the deceased was there; the time was very slow, and the wind and snow knew the heart. Outside the courtyard wall, plum blossoms have opened new branches; inside the small window, someone has written a shallow stream of years. The red dust of the past, which has become a memory, has faded; after years of sorrow and joy, it has become a habit and has been quiet.
After the cold, spring is played. As soon as the big cold has passed, a new cycle has begun, just as the so-called winter to spring and spring spring and the Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger are coming, are you ready?
