The solar term is coming.

What is Grain Rain? Literally, it means "five grains come from rain". In the ancient farming society, Grain Rain solar terms related to farming were very important, which meant that farmers had to start working in the fields. Although modern society is no longer centered on "agriculture", some prosperous customs that have been preserved are still worth inheriting. Now, the Grain Rain solar term is coming again. How can we improve our luck?

1, "Take Grain Rain". In the past, in Grain Rain, young women would go to visit relatives or go for a walk in the wild, so as to get rid of all diseases and keep fit. In the past, staying at home was the best reason for women to get in touch with nature, but now they can also use it to go for a walk in the suburbs to make their body and mind comfortable.

2. "Drink Grain Rain". It is said that Grain Rain tea can clear fire and ward off evil spirits, so there is a custom of drinking Grain Rain tea in ancient south. No matter what the weather is like, people will pick new tea in Chashan this year. Now we might as well have a drink here and feel the fresh taste for ourselves.

3. "Eat grain rain". This solar term is the time when Toona sinensis goes on the market. At this time, it is mellow and refreshing, with high nutritional value. Therefore, many places in the north have the custom of eating Toona sinensis in Grain Rain, so as to enhance physical fitness while enjoying delicious food.

4. Paste Rain. After Grain Rain, the temperature will rise, and diseases and insect pests will follow.

To this end, in the past, farmers would put up "Grain Rain stickers" to drive away evil spirits, which painted images of Tianshi except the five poisons. Although the image and characters are different, they all place people's good hopes on them. In modern times, the pests and diseases in this custom can also be extended to "villains", and "Grain Rain stickers" help to purify the gas field and strengthen their own positive energy. 5. Wash Grain Rain. In the past, some areas in the northwest called the river water of Grain Rain solar terms "Peach Blossom Water".

It is said that taking a bath with "peach blossom water" can avoid disaster, so people will take a "Grain Rain bath" at this time to wash away the dirt in the cold winter and welcome a refreshing year.
