The content about the fifth lunar month of 2021 is on this website.Analysis of the solar terms in the fifth month of the lunar calendar1. Summer Solstice As the saying goes, "The heat is in the dog days." The real hot weather is calculated based on the Summer Solstice and the Beginning of Autumn. Although the summer solstice indicates that the hot summer has arrived, it is not the hottest time yet. The temperature will continue to rise for a period of time after the summer solstice. After about another 20 to 30 days, it will generally be the hottest weather.2. Lesser Heat Lesser Heat means slight heat. In ancient my country, the Lesser Heat was divided into three stages: "The first stage is the arrival of warm winds; the second stage is when crickets live in the house; the third stage is when eagles begin to prey." What does this sentence mean? "The first sign is the arrival of warm winds" means that the winds during the Lesser Heat season carry heat waves; "The second sign is that crickets live in the houses" means that due to the heat, crickets leave the fields and go to the corners of the courtyard to avoid the heat; "The third sign is that eagles begin to prey" means that eagles start to move around in the cool high sky because the temperature is too high. Taboos of Summer SolsticeAvoid lying down in the cool night during the summer solstice! Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the head is the meeting point of all yang". The head is where the body's yang energy gathers. If you sleep in the cold at night, it will easily lead to the loss of yang energy, so you should avoid sleeping in the cold at night during the summer solstice! No matter how hot it is at night, you should not turn on the air conditioner all night when you sleep. This habit can cause serious damage to your body and may cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, facial paralysis, joint pain, and colds.Notes on the Lesser HeatPay attention to your diet during the Lesser Heat! During the Lesser Heat solar term, the most important thing is to replenish water. In summer, you can eat vegetables and fresh fruits with high water content, such as lettuce, loofah, winter melon, cucumber, tomato, peach, watermelon, bayberry, pear, etc., to replenish the water lost by the body. In addition, drinking dairy products, fruit juice, etc. is also a good choice, which can not only replenish water but also meet nutritional needs. |
