What flowers are there in the 24 solar terms? Flowers bloom endlessly.

The twenty-four solar terms are the crystallization of my ancient wisdom in China, which has been passed down to this day. Accurately divide the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter into 24 solar terms with 24 solar terms. The 24 solar terms are not only different in customs, but also different in flowers. Let's take a look at the flowers corresponding to the 24 solar terms with me.

In a year, plum blossom comes first in Hua Xinfeng, and azadirachta comes last. After 24 romantic journeys, the long summer begins.

Hua Xinfeng, in response to the wind from flowering. Festival terminology in China. Cheng Dachang recorded in Volume 1 of Lu Fan Lu: "Flowers bloom in March, and the wind is named, Hua Xinfeng." In the Southern Dynasties, Zong Yi wrote "The Old Story of Jingchu": Plum blossoms begin and Melia azedarach flowers end, and they return to Hua Xinfeng every twenty-four times. According to the solar terms of the lunar calendar, from slight cold to Grain Rain, * * * eight qi, one hundred and twenty days. Breathing once every fifteen days is divided into three periods, and breathing * * * twenty-four times every five days, each period should be a flower. According to this, the ancients compiled this Hua Xinfeng preface, starting with slight cold:

Slight cold: plum blossom, camellia, narcissus;

Great cold: Daphne odora, orchid and alum in Phnom Penh;

Beginning of spring: Spring Festival, cherry blossoms, spring;

Rain: first-class cauliflower, second-class apricot flower, third-class plum flower;

Surprise: a peach blossom, a pear and a rose;

Vernal equinox: once begonia, twice pear and three magnolia;

Qingming: first-class tung flower, second-class wheat flower, third-class willow flower;

Grain Rain: The first peony, the second peony and the third peony.

Solar term history

The traditional summer calendar in East Asia (lunar calendar) is a kind of "combined calendar of yin and yang", which is formulated according to the operation of the day and the month respectively: the part of the month is determined based on the new moon, and the year of the year is determined based on the tropical year (solar year). Each tropical year of the solar calendar is about 365.2422 days, and the 24 solar terms are divided accordingly.

Since the main political, economic, cultural and agricultural activity centers in China are mostly concentrated in the Central Plains of the Yellow River Basin in history, the 24 solar terms were established on the basis of climate and phenology in this area.

As early as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the working people of the Han nationality had the concept of "being far away from the north" and "being far away from the north". Subsequently, people divided the year into 24 equal parts according to the natural phenomena such as the running position of the sun and the moon at the beginning and middle of the month, the weather and the growth of animals and plants. And give each equal part a proper noun, that is, twenty-four solar terms. By the end of the Warring States Period, solar terms had eight names: beginning of spring, Equinox, Long Summer, Summer Solstice, beginning of autumn, Equinox, beginning of winter and Winter Solstice. These eight solar terms are the most important of the 24 solar terms. Mark the seasonal changes and clearly divide the four seasons of the year.

The names of the 24 solar terms are named according to the place pointed by Dougang and the natural climate and landscape at that time. The so-called fighting means that the three stars of the Big Dipper, Kuixing, Xingxing and Yuxing, point to different directions and positions with the movement of celestial bodies, and the positions they refer to are the months they represent. For example, the first month is cloudy, dusk refers to cloudy, midnight refers to cloudy, and daytime refers to cloudy. February is the base, at dusk, at midnight, during the day, and so on.

The above is the conclusion, which is the related content about the 24 solar terms that I brought to you. I wonder if it will help everyone?
