It occurs when the sun reaches 165 degrees of the ecliptic longitude. "Collected Explanations of the 72 Lunar Calendars" says: August Festival. Autumn belongs to gold, gold is white, yin energy becomes heavier, and dew condenses and turns white. Bailu is the third solar term in autumn, marking the end of Mengqiu and the beginning of Zhongqiu. Dew is water droplets formed by condensation of water vapor on the ground or near-earth objects due to a drop in temperature. Therefore, Bailu actually indicates that the weather has turned cooler. When it comes to Bailu, the yin energy gradually becomes heavier, and the morning dew becomes thicker and thicker, condensing into a layer of white water droplets, so it is called Bailu. As the saying goes, "Eighteen basins of water during the beginning of summer, and don't expose your body during the white dew." Bailu worships King Yu: Grand sacrificial activities are held during the White Dew solar term. It is also known as worshiping the "Water Bodhisattva". According to legend, King Yu was the flood-control hero Dayu, who was known as the ancient sage king together with Yao and Shun. People call him "Water Bodhisattva" or "River God". On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Qingming Festival, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month and the White Dew Festival, people hold incense ceremonies to worship King Yu. The Qingming Festival and the White Dew Festival in spring and autumn are the largest, and the sacrificial activities last for a week. August 25, 2019 (September 23): Autumnal Equinox The Autumnal Equinox is the sixteenth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, and usually falls between September 22 and 24 of the Gregorian calendar each year. On the autumnal equinox, the sun reaches 180° of ecliptic longitude (the autumnal equinox). "Collected Explanations of the 72 Seasonal Changes" says: "Fen" means half. This is half of the ninety days, so it is called a fen. Autumn synonyms. On the day of the autumnal equinox, the day and night are of equal length, but thereafter the nights become longer and the days become shorter. After the autumnal equinox, the sun's direct point continues to move from the equator to the southern hemisphere, and the days begin to become shorter and the nights longer in all parts of the northern hemisphere, that is, the day begins to be shorter than the night within a day; the opposite is true in the southern hemisphere. According to the ancient Chinese seasonal division method that uses the Beginning of Spring, Beginning of Summer, Beginning of Autumn and Beginning of Winter as the beginning of the four seasons, the Autumnal Equinox is located in the middle of the 90 days of autumn, dividing the autumn season equally. As people often say, it is the time when "one autumn rain brings one cold day", but the daily precipitation after the autumnal equinox will not be large. At this time, field farming in the south and north was different. Autumnal Equinox Customs and New Foods: During the autumn harvest, farmers harvest the new rice, which is generally called opening the rice gate. All new rice cooked for the first time must first be offered to ancestors and the god of the land, and then the family members are gathered together to eat it, which is called eating new rice or offering new rice. On the day of tasting the new food, people harvest new buckwheat or new rice and make rice with it. They also use a hen of that year. Rich families will also slaughter a sheep and offer it as a sacrifice to their ancestors to show that they cherish the rice and grain, repay the kindness and never forget their roots. Destiny is not one thing, but is divided into fate and luck. Fate is innate, while luck changes in different stages of life. The luck at different times is different.
