"I'm not afraid of the sunny day of the new year, I'm afraid of the cloudy day of the new year", today is the first day of the new year, what do you say?

If the "Lichun" solar term opened the "vanguard" of the new year, then the Spring Festival officially entered the new year.

2023 is the Year of the Rabbit, and with the departure of the Year of the Rabbit, we have also entered the Year of the Dragon in 2024. Of course, this year is still not ordinary:

One is that the lunar calendar has also caught up with the "leap year", and the other is that from the first day of the new year onwards, there is no spring solar term, so the old people in the village gave this year an interesting name, "no spring year", "widow's year", which still sounds quite interesting.

Of course, after entering the new year, we all hope to welcome the arrival of spring in this season full of vitality. However, for the weather on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the old people in the village think so:"I'm not afraid of the sunny day of the new year, but I'm afraid of the cloudy day of the new year".Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, what do you say about a sunny day?

The first day of the Lunar New Year is not ordinary:

As the saying goes, "The plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning." ”

For the Spring Festival, this is also one of the four traditional festivals in our country, and of course the first of the four major festivals, so on this day, there are also many folk culture and activities, such as:

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I went to pay New Year's greetings

Let's take our side as an example, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the family "invites the family hall", and then on the first day of the new year, the old and young masters of a family invite each other to pay their respects.

Red envelopes on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

In addition to New Year's greetings, the most important thing is to give out red envelopes on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The red envelope, also known as New Year's money, originated in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the original meaning was to "press" the child, but later, it was changed to the New Year. However, this traditional custom has also been handed down.

In addition, the elderly in rural areas also believe that the first day of the Lunar New Year is not only a festival for New Year's greetings, but also a very important time node in agricultural production.

Because the first day of the first lunar month is the first day of the new year, our ancestors used the weather on the first day of the first lunar month to ** the weather trend and annual scene of the whole year. For example, as the saying goes:

The black spring in the east is rainy;

Rainy black summer in the south;

It is rainy in the dark autumn in the west;

The northern part of the country is rainy in black winters".

The meaning of this proverb is that our ancestors discovered through thousands of years of observation that on the first day of the new year, passed".East, West, North and South"The situation of the sky can be an indication of the amount of rain this year.

For example, if the eastern sky is dark on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it means cloudy days, so there is more rain in spring.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the sky in the south is dark, so there is more rain in the summer.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the sky in the west is dark, so there is more rain in autumn.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the sky in the north is dark, which indicates that there will be more rain in winter.

Although we look at modern high-tech weather forecasts, this statement seems to have no scientific basis, but in ancient times, when science and technology were not developed, our ancestors were based on some agricultural proverbs to ** the weather.

Not afraid of the first sunny day of the new year, just afraid of the first cloudy day of the new year".

First, "the first month of the first month is sunny and sunny, and every farmland has a good harvest."

This sentence is easy to understand, which means that if the weather is sunny and sunny on the first day of the first lunar month, that is, the first day of the new year, then it also indicates that in this year, the harvest will be better, and the wind and rain will be smooth, and it will be a good year.

Of course, from the perspective of the weather on our side, today's first day of the Lunar New Year, February 10 of the solar calendar, although the weather is a little cold, but it is still mainly sunny.

Second, "the dawn of the first day of the new year is dark, and the five grains are abundant."

Dawn refers to the early morning when the sun is about to rise, while "black" refers to the gloomy weather.

So the meaning of this sentence is that if there is a dark sky in the east on the morning of the first day of the new year, but the dark sky does not mean that it rains. This also indicates that in the new year, it will be a good year, and then the grain will be abundant.

On the other hand, if there is a sudden heavy snow or rain on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it will not be good for the future weather, which also indicates that there will be no good harvest.

Here's why:

Because the previous saying: "the east is black and rainy in spring", it has been explained clearly, if the east is black, and the sun rises from the east, then this also indicates that spring will be rainy.

We all know that spring rain is as expensive as oil, and if it rains in spring at this time, it is naturally a good phenomenon for crops.

Third, "collect chickens or not chickens, just look at the first day of the new year".

According to folk culture, the first day of the Lunar New Year is "Rooster Day", so what is "Rooster Day"?

Our ancestors believed that the rise of the sun was related to the crowing of the rooster, so in the eyes of the ancients, the chicken was the "bird of five virtues", so the first day of the new year was called "the day of the chicken".

But for the "Rooster Day" on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there is also "".Collect chickens or not chickens, just look at the first day of the new year". Therefore, our ancestors can ** the health of chickens according to the weather conditions on the first day of the new year, and if the weather is sunny on the first day of the new year, then it is beneficial for the health of chickens, and vice versa.

Of course, through the health of chickens, it is also an indirect ** weather change, after all, in ancient times, farmers were dependent on the sky to eat, if the wind and rain were smooth, then the crops would be harvested, and the chickens would be full at this time, and they would be naturally healthy.

Fourth, "the sky should be clear in the year, and the rain is the first empty year." ”

Years of Dynasty,Refers to the first day of the Lunar New Year. An empty year refers to a year without a harvest.

So the meaning of this sentence is that the first day of the new year is suitable for a sunny day, but if it rains, then it is not good for the crops, and this year will be an empty year.

Of course as the saying goes:"The year should be dark and the sky is dark, and the heavy snow is a dry yearThis is also the same reason, which is naturally consistent with the above statement.

Fifth, "on the first day of the first month, the farmer does not plough the field with any force."

The meaning of this sentence is that if it is sunny on the first day of the first lunar month, then it also indicates that the weather will be smooth this year, and farmers will not have to work hard when plowing their fields, and there will be a good year.

Not only that, but there are also ".The spring festival is cloudless and the sun rises, and the spring rain is as fine as velvetIt means that if the sky is clear on the day of the Spring Festival, then it will rain in the spring.

We all know that the stinging solar term is a suitable day for rain, and at this time the farmers are also busy farming, so it is also a good thing for the farmers.

Written at the end: Through the above, for the first day of the Lunar New Year, although it is the Spring Festival, the ancestors believe that it is also related to agricultural production. Therefore, according to the proverb, this day is suitable for sunny days and not suitable for rain, but it is only for reference.
