Is it cold at the beginning of spring before the year or after the beginning of the year?

It will be cold at the beginning of spring after the new year.

Although the arrival of the Beginning of Spring solar term means the beginning of spring, whether the Beginning of Spring arrives before the Spring Festival or after the Spring Festival will affect the temperature and temperature of the Beginning of Spring. Generally, the Beginning of Spring will be colder after the New Year. Because the early beginning of spring means the weather will be warmer, and if it is a late beginning of spring, the weather will be colder. The characteristic of the beginning of spring is that cold air moves frequently, and the temperature difference between mouth and night is still relatively large, and it can turn from warm to cold.

When the Beginning of Spring Festival appears after the Spring Festival, then the Spring Festival is in the May Ninth period. Although we often say that March and April are the coldest times of the year, in fact, the May Ninth period is also the period of severe cold. During the solar term, the temperature at 5-9 o'clock is still very low.

So when the Beginning of Spring falls after the Spring Festival, not only will the temperature be very low during the Spring Festival, but the temperature will not rise immediately after the Beginning of Spring. The cold period will continue for a long time and may continue. It is the second month of the lunar calendar, so there is a saying that the beginning of spring during the Chinese New Year is cold in the second month.

Time changes of the Beginning of Spring:

If the Beginning of Spring arrives after the Spring Festival, it means that there is spring in this year and it is a relatively good year. In order to solve the problem of the time difference between the lunar and solar calendars, the ancients adopted the method of setting up "leap months": one year in several years has thirteen months. In the 21st century, records of the "Twelve Months" can also be seen in the oracle bones of the Shang Dynasty, which is clear evidence of leap years.

In ancient times, agriculture was the basis. Farmers believed that the weather on that day was also related to the development of agriculture in the year. There are related folk songs in many places in China. It is believed that if the weather is good on the day of the beginning of spring, farming will be prosperous all year round.

The time of the beginning of spring in the lunar calendar is variable, but the time in the solar calendar remains unchanged. It is around February 4 every year, and the difference is only one day. Because the Spring Festival is based on the lunar calendar, it changes every year, but it always fluctuates around the beginning of spring. The relationship between the Beginning of Spring and the Spring Festival is like chasing each other. Sometimes the Beginning of Spring comes first and the Spring Festival comes after.
