It is the third solar term in summer!Grain in Ear is the ninth solar term in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar, when the sun reaches 75 degrees of the ecliptic longitude. The "mang" in Mangzhong refers to the harvest of awned plants such as wheat, while the "zhong" in Mangzhong refers to the season for sowing millet crops. The homophonic meaning of the word “Mangzhong” indicates that all crops are “busy planting”. Therefore, "Mangzhong" is also called "busy planting", and farmers also call it "busy planting". The arrival of Grain in Ear indicates that farmers have begun their busy life in the fields. Zuo Heshui's poem "Grain in Ear" describes the weather and busy farming situation as "the scorching sun takes off the clothes, the plum rain swells the willow pond. The crops in the surrounding areas of Nanling are growing strong, and the wheat harvest is busy on both sides of the Yangtze River." There are six spring solar terms among the 24 solar terms, namely: Beginning of Spring, Rain Water, Waking of Insects, Spring Equinox, Qingming Festival, and Grain Rain. Studies have shown that Grain in Ear is suitable for regulating emotions. One can go to bed late and get up early, avoid direct sunlight, and take precautions against heatstroke in order to conform to the fullness of Yang energy, facilitate the circulation of Qi and blood, and boost spirits. In summer, the days are long and the nights are short. A short nap at noon can help you recover from fatigue and is good for your health. However, after the Grain in Ear season, people are required to take baths and change clothes frequently to relieve the "yang heat". Keeping a peaceful, calm and relaxed state of mind can also achieve the effect of "calmness brings coolness". In terms of clothing, after entering the Grain in Ear season, although the weather has become hot, the temperature in some areas is sometimes still very unstable because my country is often affected by cold air from the north. Therefore, it is better not to store away the warm clothes in spring too early during the Grain in Ear season, in case of emergency. What legends are there about Grain in Ear?During the Grain in Ear season, crops such as rice and cotton grow vigorously and require a lot of water, so the "May 13th" of the Grain in Ear season is also called the "Rain Festival". An agricultural proverb says, "The worst drought will not last beyond May 13th." Legend has it that May 13th is the day when Guan Gong sharpens his sword. The thunder is the sound of Guan Gong sharpening his sword, and the rain is the water used to sharpen his sword. Legend has it that after Guan Yu's heroic spirit ascended to heaven, he often came down to the mortal world to inspect and ensure good weather and good harvests. Therefore, many Guandi temples are built among the people, and the incense is very popular. However, this aroused the jealousy of an evil dragon from the South China Sea. One year, when the crops were in bloom and earrings were in bloom, the evil dragon took advantage of Guan Gong's absence and sucked up all the water from the rivers and streams, causing the crops to dry up and wither.When Guan Gong returned, he looked down at the mountains and rivers in the lower world and saw a thousand miles of barren land and severe drought. Guan Gong was extremely angry, and on the 13th day of the fifth lunar month, he sharpened his Green Dragon Crescent Blade outside the Nantian Gate to make it very sharp, and set out to defeat the dragon. The sharpening water fell on the earth, forming rain, and finally captured the evil dragon, pulled out its whiskers and tendons, forcing the evil dragon to spit out the water in its belly. The drought disappeared and the weather was good and the harvest was restored. Therefore, Guan Gong would sharpen his sword outside the Nantian Gate on May 13th every year to demonstrate and bring down heavy rain.
