Brief Introduction to Knowledge and Customs about Xiaohan
The Minor Cold is one of the 24 solar terms, and there are many customs on that day. Here is a brief introduction to the knowledge and customs about the Minor Cold. Let’s take a look at the following content!Brief Introduction to Knowledge and Customs about XiaohanMinor Cold is the fifth solar term in winter and the 23rd of the 24 solar terms. Minor Cold indicates that the cold winter is about to come and the coldest period of the entire winter is approaching. The time of Minor Cold is not fixed. Taking 2020 as an example, the time of Minor Cold is January 6th in the Gregorian calendar, which is the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month.The weather is relatively cold during the Minor Cold, so it is recommended to eat some warm and nourishing food, and of course, also eat some vegetables and fruits. If the fruit feels cold, you can warm it up before eating. After the Lesser Cold, there will be the Greater Cold. Usually during the Greater Cold, many areas will start to snow and the weather will be very cold. There are many proverbs about the Minor Cold weather, such as: "Minor Cold and Greater Cold, freeze into a ball.", "Minor Cold and Greater Cold, prepare for the New Year.", "The seventh and eighth days of the twelfth lunar month, it's freezing to go out.", "It's cold in the 39th day of the twelfth lunar month, and hot in the 4th day of the twelfth lunar month.", "The snow is half a foot thick in the twelfth lunar month, but the wheat still feels it's not quilted enough.", "Three fogs in the twelfth lunar month, the riverbed is trampled into a road.", "Minor Cold Festival lasts for fifteen days, and the seventh or eighth day is the 39th day of the twelfth lunar month.", "The weather is cold, but people are not cold, change the old habit of winter idleness." Although the weather is relatively cold during the Minor Cold, we should still pay attention to appropriate activities. You can go for a walk outside instead of staying in a warm room all day. This will make you prone to illness and reduce your resistance, which is extremely bad for your health. Inventory of Folk Sayings about the Minor Cold Solar TermFirst, the Lesser Cold Festival lasts for fifteen days, and the seventh or eighth day is the Sanjiu Festival. This proverb means that "Minor Cold Festival" is the 23rd solar term in a year. There are 15 days between Minor Cold and Major Cold. Among them, seven or eight days after Minor Cold Festival is the "Three Nine Days"! This is passed down by rural people after years of life experience. It can be regarded as common sense! Second, after Minor Cold and Major Cold, another year passes in the blink of an eye. This proverb means: Among the 24 solar terms, the Lesser Cold comes the Greater Cold, and the Greater Cold is the last solar term, so after the Greater Cold the year is over, and winter goes and spring comes, and another cycle of the four seasons begins.Third, if it snows on September 19th, pigs and dogs won’t eat anything black. This proverb means: after the winter solstice, one starts counting the nine days, and nine days equals one nine, and so on. If it snows on every nine days, then the harvest will be very good next year, and even pigs and dogs won't eat moldy and blackened food. At the same time, this proverb also indicates a good harvest next year. |
