Tomorrow is the ninth day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, this day is not ordinary, it is called the big red sand day, that is, the day when everything is auspicious, and at the same time, there is a saying that there is an omen weather and a year's scene, so it is better to rain or sunny on this day? What's the point? There are early signs in agricultural proverbs, so let's take a look at them together.
What's so special about this day?
According to the time of the Ganzhi calendar, the ninth day of the fourth month is the Gengchen day, and the five elements belong to ash gold, which is not suitable for fire. This can be explained in terms of the mutual growth and restraint of the five elements of yin and yang.
Mu Ke Earth, Tu Ke Water, Water Ke Fire, Fire Ke Jin, Jin Ke Mu. Jin can overcome the lack of wood and wood, wood can overcome the soil and heavy wood, the soil can overcome the water and the soil flow, the water can overcome the fire and the water heat, and the fire can overcome the gold and gold and extinguish the fire. Gold decay will see melt when it encounters fire, that is to say, if it is just a little gold, and it encounters a strong fire, it will form: "gold decay must see melt when it encounters fire".
Summer is the order of fire, and the restraint of fire over gold, especially strong fire, is more important to gold. According to an explanation of the five elements on this day, gold is raised in Chen, born in Si, the shape and quality are primary, and they are not strong, so it is called "ash gold". In other words, on this day, it is easy to form a situation where "gold decay will melt when it meets fire."
Is it better to rain or sunny on the ninth day of April?
Of course, it is the best sunny day, because the fire is most afraid of encountering water, gold can produce water and gold sink, if there is rain on this day, gold itself is raw water, and add more water at this time, then it will cause gold to sink, so that the weather will have an extreme change, that is, when it should be hot, it will suddenly become cold, then obviously this is also a bad phenomenon.
In early summer, the weather begins to grow slowly, that is, slowly converges, and we will also clearly feel that at this time, the weather begins to slowly become hotter, and the power of fire is getting stronger and stronger, they maintain this balance, once this balance is broken, then it is easy to have abnormal weather, uneven cold and heat, resulting in a reduction in crop yield.
Therefore, it is better to have a sunny day because it can maintain a balance, especially the power of fire, which begins to increase, so that the weather can heat up in an orderly manner and the crops can grow better.
What is the omen of this day?
On the day of thundering Jiazi Gengchen, it is necessary to prevent locusts from invading rice and grass.
That is to say, on the Jiazi Day of April, or Gengchen Day, we must pay attention to a change in the weather, if there is thunder, that is, thunder and rain, we must beware of the days to come, such as locust plagues and the growth of rice and wheat.
From here, we can also know that if there is a situation of rain and thunder on the ninth Gengchen day of the first month of April, then it is obvious that the subsequent crops are easy to bring disasters, especially the insect plagues encountered, in other words, the weather will change greatly, and it is easy to appear whether it is hot or not, and whether it is cold or not.
So on the ninth day of the first month of April, we should pay attention to a change in the weather, of course, this is ancient, based on life experience, it still has a certain regionality, especially with the change of climate, these may not be so applicable, but as an understanding is still possible.
