What is the answer of July 12 Taobao's big winner?

On July 12, the answer of Taobao's big winner was dog days.

The dog days, which appear between the summer heat and the summer heat, are the period with the highest temperature, the highest humidity and the most severe sultry heat in a year. Three volts can be divided into initial, middle and final volts, and its date is determined by the coordination of 24 solar terms and the dates of dry and branch. After "entering the volt", many places in the country will enter the continuous high temperature mode.

The traditional almanac stipulates that "counting from the third Geng day in summer", that is to say, "counting down from the summer day until the third Geng day" is about to begin to dormant. The "Geng Day" here refers to the days prefixed with "Geng" in the ancient "Ganzhi Jiri Law". "crouching" means being forced to hide underground; This also means that it is too hot to move.

The length of dog days mainly lies in the difference between middle and next days. Because the third Geng day (the first autumn) after the summer solstice solar term occurs at different times every year, the number of days in the middle autumn is also different. The incubation time is long or short, which may be 10 day or 20 days. So there are two situations: some years are 30 days in dog days, and some years are 40 days.

Date calculation

Dog days, one volt is ten days, counted by days. Therefore, the dog days are divided into three days, that is to say, after the third day of Gengtian, the summer solstice is the first day, the first volt. For example, the summer solstice in 2006 is June 2 1 in the western calendar year, and the dry day of this day is Xinri. 28 days later, it is the third Geng Day. Therefore, July 20, 2006 is the beginning of the first volt.

Ten days later, it was another Geng day, that is, on July 30, it entered the second volt; Ten days later, it was another Geng Day, the first Geng Day after beginning of autumn, that is, August 9, and it entered the dog days; If it is 2007, July 15 is the third Geng day and the beginning of the first volt; Ten days later, it was another Geng day, that is, July 25, and it entered the second volt (middle volt);

Ten days later, it's another watch day, but I haven't been to beginning of autumn yet. Ten days later (there are still 20 days in mid-autumn this year), it will be another Geng Day, the first Geng Day after beginning of autumn, that is, in August of 14, it will enter the dog days. In other words, every year after the dog days, it is very hot, especially in the middle ten days (sometimes twenty days), which is the hottest. There is a folk saying that "the cold is in the March 9th and the summer heat is in the middle".
