Is it still hot in the Millennium? How long will it take?
Millennium is a typical solar term in late summer and early autumn, and the weather turns cold gradually. However, China has a vast territory, with the same solar term for thousands of years, and the climate between the north and the south is very different. After the Millennium, friends in the north get up in the morning, and sometimes they can see dew near the ground. In the south and other places, although the summer has passed, the temperature is still high, and it is too early to see the dew.
The origin of Millennium solar terms
When the sun reaches longitude 165 degrees around September 8 every year, it is the "Millennium" solar term. "White Dew" is a festival that reflects the temperature changes in nature. Dew is a unique natural phenomenon after the solar term of "White Dew". The weather at this time, as the Book of Rites said: "The cool wind comes, the dew falls, and cicadas sing." According to the explanation of "white dew" in the twenty-four solar terms-"water and soil condense dew, autumn belongs to gold, golden white and white dew, and qi begins to be cold".
The ancients also said in Xiao Weijing: "The fifteenth day after the summer heat is white dew", and the yin is getting heavier and heavier, and the dew condenses into white. "The ancients used the four seasons to match the five elements. Autumn was golden, golden and white, so it was described as autumn dew.
