The twentieth day of the first lunar month is the traditional Chinese folk "Heavenly Wear Festival" to commemorate Nuwa's act of mending the sky. Folk proverb cloud: "20 days to wear, 21 days to wear", so the 21st day of the first month is the anniversary of the "Earth Wear Festival". Legend has it that the water god Gonggong and the fire god Zhurong fought a big battle, and the Gonggong broke the pillar that supported the sky, causing the sky to collapse and the earth cracking, and the flood and mountain fire raging. Nuwa mends the sky on the twentieth day of the first lunar month, and then fills the ground. On the twenty-first day of the first lunar month, people pray for good weather and abundant harvests, also known as "replenishing the land".
It is also known as "Wheat Day", which symbolizes the birthday of Wheat. The 21st day of the first month coincides with the rainy season, the temperature warms up, and the rainfall increases, which is conducive to the return of wheat seedlings to green, so it is called "wheat day". On that day, the people ate pasta and prayed for a good harvest of wheat.
China is an ancient agricultural civilization, and our ancestors have accumulated rich experience in long-term agricultural production. Now, the wheat seedlings are about to enter the regreening stage, but the frost damage is worrying. There is a saying that "if the cold of spring does not come, it depends on the twenty-first day of the first month", which means that if it snows on the same day, there may be a "cold spring".
The snow on the 21st day of the first month indicates that the temperature is low in the spring ploughing season, which affects farming; And after the rain, the weather is still cold. The stinging solar term is the beginning of spring ploughing, if there is a cold spring, it is not conducive to the growth of crops.
In addition, the continuous rain on the 21st day of the first lunar month indicates that the rainy weather may continue until the Qingming Festival. Spring is suitable for rain, but prolonged rain is not conducive to farming, which is easy to cause spring cold and damage crop yields.
If the 21st day of the first lunar month is sunny, it indicates that the year will be better and the possibility of a bumper crop harvest is higher. Therefore, the sunny day on the 21st day of the first lunar month is an auspicious omen for farmers.
To sum up, the weather changes on the 21st day of the first lunar month have an important impact on farming. If it rains or snows on the same day, it may lead to a cold spring; If the weather is fine, the year may be better.
