Heavy snow heralds a good year, and the old man's aphorism analyzes the meaning of heavy snow
It snowed on December 7 of this year's Gregorian calendar, said the old man in the countryside"If there is snow, you will see snow next year, and if there is no snow, it will be a disease or a disaster"What does this mean?Why do they say that?Let's take a look.
Here, of course"Heavy snowfall"It refers to the heavy snow season, not a heavy snowfall. Heavy snow is one of the 24 solar terms, the 21st of the 24 solar terms, and the third of the winter solar terms.
It is sung in the song of the twenty-four solar terms.
The spring rain is shocking, the valley is sunny, the summer mango is full of mountains, and the heat is pressing.
Autumn dew and autumn frost, winter snow and winter small and big cold.
The content of the two sessions per month will not change, and the difference will be one or two days at most.
The first half of the year is June 21 and the second half is August 23.
That is to say, the 24 solar terms are 、.. from the beginning of spring, the next rain, the sting, the spring equinox, the Qingming, the valley rain, the beginning of summer, and the small floodUntil the great cold, a total of 24 solar terms, two solar terms per month, the first half of the solar terms of the handover time in the sixth month of the lunar month and the twenty-first day of the lunar month, the second half of the solar terms of the handover time in the eighth month of the lunar month and the twenty-third of the lunar month.
This obviously refers to the Gregorian or Gregorian calendar. Although the 24 solar terms are fixed in the solar calendar, they are not fixed in the lunar calendar. This year's heavy snow season falls on December 7 of the Gregorian calendar, which is October 25 of the lunar calendar.
The heavy snow season is the season that reflects the characteristics of the climate. Snow is a product of water vapor coming into contact with cold and represents cold weather precipitation. While light snow represents a small amount of precipitation and heavy snow represents a lot of precipitation, the arrival of the snow season does not mean that it will definitely snow. In fact, sometimes it snows, sometimes it gets late, after all, nature is fickle.
In the eyes of the older generation, the snow season is an important turning point in the climate, and the absence of snow on that day has a certain relationship with the weather in the following period, which is directly related to people's daily life and the harvest of the coming year. As the saying goes:"Ruixue sees snow in the coming year, and Ruixue does not have Ruixue disease. "What does this mean?Does that make sense?
Ruixue Trillion Year"
The meaning of this sentence is that if it snows during the heavy snow season, people see snow, which is a sign of a good harvest in the coming year.
Snow is known to be a product of water vapor, formed by cold, and when melted, it becomes water. Water is directly related to crop growth. In ancient times, there were no irrigation facilities, and the harvest depended on the amount of precipitation. The snow season is the season of snow, and snow not only moistens the crops, but also covers the winter crops with a duvet.
Snow in winter has always been a good omen for a good year, so there is"Ruixue Trillion Year"said. If the snow falls sparsely throughout the winter, the winter will continue to be dry, and it will be difficult to harvest the following year. In the old days, when there were no irrigation facilities, it was true, only winter precipitation could guarantee the survival of crops, so there was"Heavy snow sees snow, and the next year is a good harvest"said.
Without snow, there is no disease"
The meaning of this sentence is that if it does not snow during the snow season, it means that the climate is abnormal, which people do not want to see. As the saying goes:"The weather is hot, and the grains do not bear fruit;It's cold, and the year is not good. "It snows when it should snow, it's a natural law.
If there is no snow when the light snow season arrives, it is also a sign of a warm winter. The lack of cold is also a factor in the increase in pests and diseases, which can lead to reduced crop yields in the coming year, and the older generation has long known about warm winters"Pour the spring cold"phenomenon related to the cause of crop diseases.
Snow not only benefits winter crops, but also purifies the air. A heavy snowfall, although much colder, is also extremely beneficial to people's lives. Especially in ancient times, people's living conditions were very poor, medical conditions were limited, and most of the cases seemed to come from warm winters, and there were many people who caught colds. In normal years, when it is time to snow, the mountains are covered by heavy snow, and although the weather is cold, there are not many people who get sick, which is also caused by the fresh air. So there is"No snow and no sickness"said.
Of course, the temperature difference between the north and the south of our country is large, and this old saying is not suitable for all places, such as some areas in the south, where the four seasons are distinct, and there is almost no snow for a year, let alone heavy snow and light snow. In short, it is very important for the arrival of solar terms, winter snow is also the expectation of the ancients, according to some ancient records, in the northern region, people also have the same Xi of praying for snow in winter as praying for rain in spring.
Heavy snow sees snow in the coming year, and light snow does not snow and gets sick"Although this sentence has no scientific basis, it is also the experience summed up by the older generation. With the arrival of the heavy snow season, whether there is snow or not, the cold weather is in line with the climate law, and if it is too warm, it is an abnormal climate. The light snow solar term is coming, I hope you pay attention to keeping warm, so as not to catch a cold and get sick, I don't know what you think about it?Please leave a message in the comment section!
