Beginning of spring is the first of the 24 solar terms. How is it divided?
Beginning of spring solar terms began, westerly jet, the southern branch of East Asia, began to weaken, and the winter climate was coming to an end. However, the intensity and location of the northern branch of westerly jet remain basically the same, the Mongolian cold high and Aleutian low are still relatively strong, and gale cooling is still the prevailing main weather.
However, during the intermission under the influence of strong cold air, the frequency of southerly winds increases, accompanied by an obvious warming process. Spring rain surprises spring and bright valley days, and summer is full of mans and summer heat is connected; Autumn dew, autumn frost, little snow in winter and cold in winter. The solar term song, which is well known to China people, implies the order of the 24 solar terms.
Shuo Wen Jie Zi records: "Duke Zhou began to make beginning of spring native cattle, and unearthed them to show the time of farming." In the Song Dynasty, the day before spring began, local officials sent spring cows to the palace. On the same day in beginning of spring, at noon, officials in Spring whipped them with wicker, which is called "whipping Spring". The custom of Gai Da Chun began in Song Dynasty.
In the Qing dynasty, it evolved into an important folk activity with the participation of the whole people. People should also be spring cows and whip them to remind people that the plan of the year lies in spring, so we should pay close attention to spring ploughing and not miss the farming season. In Taiwan Province Province, spring is simply designated as Farmers' Day.
Beginning of spring, one of the 24 solar terms, is also called the Spring Festival, the First Month Festival, the New Year Festival and the New Year Festival. Standing means "start"; Spring represents warmth and growth. In ancient times, the method of "bucket handle Acupoint" used bucket handle and the Big Dipper in beginning of spring to point to Yin. The current method of "fixing qi" divides solar terms, and beginning of spring is when the sun reaches longitude 3 15. In the era of cadres and branches, taking beginning of spring as the beginning of a year, beginning of spring means the beginning of a new cycle, the beginning of everything, and the meaning of all self-renewal.
