The beginning of spring in 2024 is approaching, "Spring beats five and nine tails, and new graves will start in the coming year", what is the situation in 2024?

The east wind brings rain and the west wind, and the earth is sunny and the heating is ......This is a poem in "The Beginning of Spring", and the beginning of spring is the time when yang energy is first born, and everything has gradually recovered.

Time flies so fast, there are still a few days to enter the beginning of spring in 2024, and it is also officially entered".Jiachen year”。And the beginning of spring is the beginning of the year. This also means that the winter when everything is closed has passed, and it has begun to enter the spring when the wind and the sun are warm, and everything grows.

Of course, compared with last year's Spring Festival, there are several unusual features:

This year, "before the beginning of spring and Chinese New Year's Eve".

This year's spring "spring hit five and nine tails".

This year's Lichun "year breaks the beginning of spring".

This year's Lichun "Sanhe Heavenly Medical Day" and so on.

However, what we are writing about in this article is a common saying about "spring hitting five and nine tails", as the old saying goes".Spring beats five or nine tails, and a new grave will start in the coming year".。So what does this sentence mean, does it make sense, and what will be the situation next year, let me tell you:

The beginning of spring in 2024 is not ordinary:

Regarding Lichun's statement, the ancient book "Qunfang Spectrum" explains Lichun like this:

"Stand, start to build. Spring begins to build up".

Therefore, the beginning of spring is one of the 24 solar terms, and according to our customs, it is also called "beating spring". It means that the weather is gradually warming up and beginning to enter spring, spring returns to the earth, the east wind blows water, winter goes to spring, and everything recovers.

Therefore, the beginning of spring is also the beginning of all things, spring is wood, symbolizing vitality, so the four seasons of the year are opened by spring. Of course, there are still a few unusual things about the beginning of spring in 2024, let's find out together:

First, this year's Lichun "year breaks the beginning of spring".

"year", refers to the number of years, and in ancient times, our ancestors observed astronomical phenomena and found that every year Jupiter in the sky entered a certain position of the twelve earthly branches, so Jupiter was also called "year star" by our ancestors.

After entering the Year of the Dragon in 2024, that is, on the day of the beginning of spring, the year star has just entered the "Chen position" in the twelve earthly branches, and the zodiac corresponding to the Chen position is the dragon.

Therefore, the power of the stars is the power of the foundation of the year, and the "Ancient Book" cloud is in this regard

Tai Sui, the god of the twelve. Jupiter travels once a year old, twelve times and one week.

Therefore, the characteristics of this year's beginning of spring are "the beginning of the year".

Second, this year's spring "spring hit five and nine tails".

For the characteristics of the day of the beginning of spring, there is known as "spring hit five nine tails", "spring hit six nine heads", that is to say, because of the "number nine" reason, the day of the beginning of spring is either in the "five nine tails" or in the "six nine heads".

And we looked at the calendar and found that this year's beginning of spring "spring hit five or nine tails", the specific reasons are:

According to folk tradition, the winter solstice is the beginning of the number nine and the first day of the ninety-nine.

And people's "counting nine" is calculated according to the date of cold weather and spring flowers, so from the winter solstice, the first nine days are "one nine", and the second nine days are "two nine" ......And so on, until the end of the ninety-nine, of course, after the "ninety-nine", it means that the spring is deep.

The Gregorian calendar year has 365 days in a year, and is divided into 24 solar terms, and the period between the solar terms is about 15 days and 16 days, so from the beginning of the winter solstice to the day of the beginning of the spring solar term, it is about 45 days, or 46 days.

Therefore, the day of the beginning of spring is either on the tail of "five-nine" or on the head of "six-nine", and this year's beginning of spring is "spring hitting five-nine tails."

However, there are many sayings about whether the spring beats the five or nine tails or the six or nine heads, and this sentence "Spring beats the five and nine tails, the new grave in the coming year" is also a proverb, let's talk about it specifically:

The meaning of "spring beats five or nine tails, and a new grave in the coming year":

Spring hits five and nine tails

December 22, 2023 is the winter solstice, the winter solstice is ten days of the solar calendar year, so from this day to "count nine", and this year's calendar shows that the day of the beginning of spring is on the last day of Wujiu, and after the beginning of spring, it will enter the "six nine".

Therefore, the day of the beginning of spring in 2024 is".Spring hits five and nine tails

New graves from the next year:

The grave is naturally a bad symbol, but the ancestors are also very exaggerated about the saying, which also describes that in the new year, the harvest of crops will not be too good.

So why the "new grave":

Because in ancient times, due to the underdevelopment of science and technology, coupled with the lack of artificial rainfall, the social conditions in ancient times were "agrarian society".

The biggest disadvantage of the agrarian society is that it "depends on the sky for food", so if in ancient times, because of the "cold spring", or the weather continued to be dry, there would be a "famine year".

Therefore, once the grain harvest declines, the ancients will be hungry and prone to famine, so there will be some practice of starvation, which will lead to the saying of "new graves in the coming year".

Of course, there are some agricultural proverbs that say this proverb, such as:

First, "hit five or nine tails in spring, eat bran and drink cold water".

The meaning of this sentence is that if the beginning of the Spring Festival falls on the last day of May Nine, then the common people will eat bran and drink cold water this year.

Of course, eating bran and drinking cold water is a kind of health preservation, because people nowadays are too involved in rice, white flour, and meat, which will lead to some "wealth diseases", such as blood sugar and blood pressure problems.

But in ancient times, what the common people looked forward to most was to eat white flour steamed buns, and eating bran and drinking cold water naturally also indicated that the crop harvest was not good. Of course, this sentence also reveals a truth, that is:

There will be some natural disasters, such as poor crop harvests, such as the occurrence of cold spring cold, resulting in people not having enough to eat.

Second, "five or nine tails are beaten in spring, and the seedlings are frozen to death in March."

The meaning of this sentence is that if the beginning of the spring solar term falls on the end of May 9, it is also "59 tails". Then this also indicates that the phenomenon of "inverted spring cold" will occur in this year.

We all know that Weihai, which is cold in spring, especially the "peach blossom snow" in March 2023, has caused a large number of flowering peach blossoms to freeze to death, and there has been a phenomenon of reduced peach production.

Therefore, some natural disasters such as low-temperature frost damage are not conducive to the growth of crops, which will lead to people not having enough to eat, and naturally there will be the phenomenon of "new graves" in ancient times, but it is not applicable in modern times.

Third, "Spring beats five or nine tails, and breaks your leg when you want to eat."

The one who asks for food is called Hanako, also known as a beggar.

Therefore, the meaning of this sentence is that if the beginning of the Spring Festival is on the last day of the fifth and ninth days of the "number nine", then this also indicates that this year's grain harvest will be bad, and the people will not be able to receive excess food.

So why do you say that:

Through thousands of years of observation, the ancestors found that some solar terms are regular, such as the "rhythmic phenomenon". However, there are similar "spring beats five and nine tails, and the ghost freezes to death in the coming year", "spring hits five and nine tails, and spring is cold in February", etc., all of which are based on this truth.

Written at the end: Through the above, for "spring beating five and nine tails, and a new grave in the coming year", it is just some agricultural proverbs of the ancestors in ancient times, and there is naturally no scientific basis for it now, so let's take a look.

As for the year 2024, with the development of our large-scale mechanization, drip irrigation technology, as well as artificial intelligence, drones and other high-tech, as well as the import of grain, 2024 will naturally be a bumper year.
