On the birthday of the young girl on September 14, the old man said: "Before the frost of the young girl, it must be a disaster year", what does it mean?

The eighth month of the lunar calendar is called the "Youyue", and the ninth month of the lunar calendar is called the "Xuyue". Of course, with the arrival of the ninth lunar month, there are many special days in the folk. For example:

On the first day of September, "Nandou Xingjun's birthday",

On the third day of September, "the birthday of the plague god",

On the sixth day of September, "Tianzhen Festival",

The ninth day of September "Chung Yeung Festival",

September 13 "Meng Po's Day" and so on.

Of course, on the 13th day of September in the lunar calendar, there is also a very important festival "Qingnu's Day". For the "Green Girl's Day", our ancestors believed that the ninth month of the lunar calendar is not only the lunar month, but also known as the "Green Girl Month", so this day is also very important, and it is also related to the production and life of the people.

It is precisely like this, in the countryside, there is also a saying that "before the frost of the young girl, it must be a disaster year", so what does this sentence mean, is there any reason? Let me tell you:

September 14th Young Girl's Day:

As the old saying goes in the countryside, "September 14th, the day of frost for young girls".

Therefore, according to the folk saying, the 14th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar is the day when the green girl goes to the world to cast spells and frost, of course, the old people in the countryside also call the 14th day of September as the "Green Girl's Day", the day of the birth of the "Green Girl" in folklore.

So what is a "green girl"? How did she come from?

For young girls, Li Shangyin's poems in the Tang Dynasty have clouds:

"The fence is falling in the twilight, and a few branches are talking about themselves. The snow is cut and the stamens are dense, and the gold is dismantled with small buds. Thousands of years of white wine, a lifetime of green girl frost. The spring bushes are not light and thin, and they have hidden from each other. ”

And the poem is the story of the young girl, but in the mythology, the green girl is the goddess of frost and snow, who is in charge of frost and snow, among which the ancient book "Huainanzi Tianwenxun" records:

"The green girl is out to rain frost and snow. It's the twilight of autumn. ”

From this point of view, the mythical green girl is related to the frost solar term. However, about the origin of the green girl, this also stems from a beautiful myth and legend:

Qingnu, whose real name is Wu Jie, is also called "Qingxiao Jade Girl"; It is said that she is the sister of Wu Gang on the moon of the heavenly palace, and she is the goddess in charge of the frost and snow in the world.

Legend has it that in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou were at war, and in order to defeat Chiyou, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor prepared to form an alliance. And a major meeting was held in Qingyao Mountain.

However, due to the continuous wars between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, the people in various places were not able to make a living, and the plague was rampant.

And Qingyao Mountain is the same, everywhere is rotten grass and miasma, mountain miasma poisonous mist, all kinds of diseases breed, the world is still difficult to get rid of the sea of suffering.

So the Yellow Emperor found Miss Wuluo, the goddess of Qingyao Mountain, and asked her to think of a way.

Miss Wuluo is in charge of marriage in the world, in order to benefit the world and eliminate disasters and diseases for people, she specially landed on the moon and invited the frost fairy - Qingnu to the Guanghan Palace.

Qingnu is Wu Gang's younger sister and a fairy who sprinkles frost and snow. So on the 14th day of September, she came down to the world and stood on the highest peak of Qingyao Mountain, raining frost and snow for the earth.

After a period of heavy snow, frost and snow, the miasma and poisonous fog of the mountains suddenly disappeared, and since then there have been no disasters and diseases, and people have lived a happy life.

Since then, on March 13 and September 14 every year, the "Qingxiao Jade Girl" will have two frosts, and another snow will fall in the lunar month.

Later, there was also the saying of September frost, March frost, and wax moon snow. And the green girl represents the frost, after the frost, the earth is white, so it is called Wu Jie, which means white and flawless.

Later, in order to commemorate the "Green Girl Fairy", the common people called the day of September 14 the "Green Girl's Day", that is, the day of frost.

"Before the frost of the green girl falls, it must be a disaster year" means:

"Young Maiden's Day" is the 14th day of September in the lunar calendar, and the frost solar term is fixed in the solar calendar year, generally between October 23~24 of the solar calendar, but in the lunar month because of the leap year and the leap month is not fixed.

Therefore, on the 14th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the "Young Maiden's Day" may be after the frost solar term because of the leap month, but it may also be before the frost solar term. It is precisely in this way that there is a saying among the people that "before the frost of the young girl, it must be a disaster year".

However, this year's "Green Girl's Day" and "Frost Fall" are not ordinary, and this year's "Frost Festival" time is the tenth day of the ninth lunar month, after the "Green Girl's Day" on September 14.

Therefore, this is not in line with the saying that "before the frost of the green girl, it must be a disaster year", and it can be expected that next year will be a bumper year.

We all know that "spring is born, summer is long, autumn is harvested, and winter is hidden", in fact, this is the process of the cycle of the four seasons, which is endless, and these are in line with the laws of nature.

Of course, frost is the last solar term of autumn, and after the frost, it means that the cold is stronger than the cool, and everything begins to wither at this time, and the grass and trees do not grow. Therefore, the frost is also very important, if the frost is early, it will not only affect the growth of some crops in late autumn, but also freeze the winter wheat seedlings, which is not conducive to the normal growth of crops.

Of course, our ancestors believed according to the characteristics of the solar terms:

The frost solar term is generally in the middle of the lunar month, that is, around the fifteenth day of September of the lunar calendar, which is conducive to crops.

Of course, there are some sayings about when the frost is good when the frost falls:

The meaning of this sentence is that if there is a frost or frost on the 14th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, then the crops will be abundant, and the rice will be as light as rice bran. However, if the frost falls after the frost falls, then the crops will also be harvested the following year.

Of course, the agricultural proverbs: "Frost before frost falls, picking rice is like picking bran", "Late rice is afraid of frost coming early", "Frost begins to fall, and the rain stops in the next year", which is also in line with this statement.

And September 14, the "Young Maiden's Day", is also the right day for frost, so the ancestors believe according to thousands of years of agricultural production:

Write at the end:

Through the above, there is still a certain saying as the saying goes, "before the frost of the green girl, it must be a disaster year", after all, if the birthday of the young girl "before the frost falls, then it represents that the cold comes early, and the harvest is not good." However, the later the cold appears, it is not a good phenomenon, and it will be prone to the phenomenon of "inverted spring cold", so it is a good phenomenon that the frost season is not early or late.
