What is the saying that it rained on the first day?
Water can wash away everything that went wrong last year, and the rain in the New Year symbolizes a godsend or unexpected harvest. Rain is a natural landscape, but the water on the earth is turned into steam and evaporated into the air after being irradiated by sunlight.
Water vapor condenses into small water droplets when it meets cold air at high altitude. These water droplets are very small, with a diameter of only 0.0 1-0.02 mm and a maximum of only 0.2 mm. It is true that good weather will bring good omen, but rain does not mean bad luck, but it also means good weather in the future.
If it rains on the first day of the first lunar month, it indicates that there will be plenty of rain behind, which is a good year for food crops to have a bumper harvest in May of the lunar calendar. The ancients used the grain harvest as a metaphor for golden yellow. After all, food was precious in ancient times.
In addition, there is "the birthday of the sun god is not seen, and the gold is now in the sky." In ancient times, people also regarded the first day of February in the lunar calendar as the birthday of the sun, so it means that the first day of February is the birthday of the sun god. If you can't see the sun on this rainy day, then in the solar terms, wheat will soon usher in the harvest season.
The first day:
The first day refers to the first day of each month in the lunar calendar. As the saying goes, "A year's plan lies in spring, and a day's plan lies in the morning." Naturally, the first day of each month is also very important. Of course, the most important thing is the first day of the first month, which is the first day of the year. Since ancient times, there have been many customs, such as gathering wealth, drinking, setting off firecrackers, occupying the New Year, and greeting the New Year.
