Let me tell you an interesting fact: this year's winter solstice is not seen in 60 years!
In our country, the winter solstice is regarded as an important holiday.
There is a saying that "the winter solstice is as big as the year", and every household will have traditional activities such as reunions and ancestor sacrifices.
The day of the winter solstice
Dumplings are commonly eaten in the north, and it is said that "the little ears will not be frozen".
In the south, it is popular to eat glutinous rice balls, which means reunion.
In some areas, the winter solstice is also a good time for body maintenance and tonics.
It is believed that this strengthens the body's resistance.
The day after tomorrow, we will usher in this very important day of the year: the winter solstice!
On this day, our sun seems to have turned into a lazy kitten, only staying in the sky for a short time before running to rest.
This means that the days are short and the nights are long.
This year's winter solstice is extraordinary
This year's winter solstice is very special, it is the rarest in sixty years. Why is this year so special?
Generally speaking, the winter solstice is the day of the year when the days are shortest and the nights are longest
This date is roughly fixed between December 21 and 23 every year, so it is called "Living Day"
Since the solar calendar establishes a solar term when the sun moves 15 degrees
Therefore, the date of the winter solstice basically changes every year
But this year's winter solstice is not ordinary, it occurs on December 22, and last year's winter solstice was also on December 22
This situation is rare, and the last time this happened was about 60 years ago, so this year's winter solstice belongs to 60 years
Do you feel cold this winter?
I've noticed that people on the street have been dressed like bears lately because it's been so cold.
When you see the headlines of these reports, do you feel even colder?
In some places, there is even a spectacle of thunder and snow.
It's like thunder and rain in the summer, but this time it's in the winter!
Some people say that this year is destined to be extraordinary, but in fact, thunder and snow are also a very normal natural phenomenon.
You still don't have to worry too much.
The wisdom and proverbs of our ancestors
Our ancestors left a lot of proverbs about the weather.
For example, "The winter solstice is in the moon, and you don't wear a jacket for the New Year"
This means that if the winter solstice comes early, the winter of that year will not be too cold.
"One autumn rain and one cold, ten autumn rains put on cotton"
This phrase means that after each rain in autumn, the weather will gradually get colder,
After many rains in a row, it's time to put on warm cotton clothes.
I don't know if you've had a lot of rain lately?
"Winter thunder and earthquakes, and a good harvest in the coming year. ”
Thunder in winter indicates a good harvest in the coming year.
Do you think these proverbs are accurate? Feel free to leave a message to discuss.

You still have to keep warm
