Introduction: Frost Descent is one of the 24 solar terms in our country's traditional culture, and the arrival of Frost Descent heralds climate change, so what does Frost Descent mean? Analysis of the three signs of Frost Descent! Want to know more about the days in the ninth month of the lunar calendar in 2018? Please pay attention to our Mr. Shui Mo’s special feature on September of the lunar calendar!What does the Frost Descent solar term mean?Analysis of the meaning of the Frost Descent solar term:1. Frost Descent occurs around October 23rd of the Gregorian calendar every year when the sun reaches 210 degrees of the ecliptic longitude. "Frost" is formed when water vapor on the ground condenses when encountering cold weather. "Shuangjiang" does not mean frost, but it means that the weather is cold and the first frost will appear on the earth. 2. With the arrival of Frost, crops and grass begin to turn yellow and shed their leaves, entering the late autumn, late fall and late autumn when "thousands of trees turn yellow". Therefore, "Shuangjiang" is a solar term representing the change of temperature, which means that the weather turns cold, dew condenses into frost, and frost begins to appear. In addition, "Shuangjiang" is also the solar term for the transition from autumn to winter. Origin of the record of Frost Descent <br /> 1. "Explanation of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms" says: "When the weather is cold, frost falls, and the yin begins to condense." This means that Frost Descent means that the weather is gradually getting colder and frost begins to fall. 2. Meteorological records: The first frost in autumn is generally called "early frost" or "first frost", and the last frost in spring is called "late frost" or "final frost". The period from the last frost to the first frost is the frost-free period. 3. Three signs of Frost Descent: the first sign is that jackals offer sacrifices to animals; the second sign is that the grass and trees turn yellow and fall; the third sign is that all stinging insects lie down. Analysis of the three signs of Frost Descent!The first phase is when jackals offer sacrifices to animals : this means that jackals and other ferocious animals will first display their captured prey on the ground, offer sacrifices to the sky, and then eat it. The Yi Zhou Shu Shi Xun says: "On the day of frost, jackals offer sacrifices to animals." It also says: "If jackals do not offer sacrifices to animals, their claws and teeth will be bad."The second phase is the yellowing and falling of grass and trees : this means that the grass and trees on the earth begin to turn yellow and shed their leaves. After the Frost Descent, the weather gradually becomes colder, and most plants stop fully supplying water and nutrients to nourish them. As a result, their leaves gradually turn yellow and fall to the ground. The third sign is that all the stinging insects are lying down in hibernation : this means that the insects that have been stinging and hibernating are hiding in the soil or holes, not moving, not calling, and not eating, with their heads down and their bodies bent, entering a hibernation state. The Huainanzi Tianwen Xun records: "In the third month of autumn, the earth's qi is no longer hidden, and it stops killing. All insects hibernate, and people stay at home and close their doors. Then the Green Lady comes out and brings frost and snow." |
