"After a drum of light thunder stunning, fine sieve light rain falls plum sky", time flies really fast, on March 5 we officially entered the stunning solar term, at this time the sun reached the ecliptic longitude of 315 degrees. The meaning of sting is that the spring thunder begins to roar, waking up the insects that are hibernating in the ground, but what really makes the hibernating animals wake up and unearth is not the thunder, but the warming weather that causes the stinging insects to flee in shock.
In our country's dry branch calendar "December construction", February built Mao, the stinging solar term is the beginning of the month, the old saying "Mao is the spring gate, all things have come out", it is said that the door of the spring is officially opened in the moon, the yang rises, and all things are full of vitalityAs we often say, "Mao time" refers to 5 o'clock to 7 o'clock in the morning, which is the time when the sun rises, so we should not sleep lazy anymore when we enter the stinging solar term, and it is advisable to go to bed early and get up early to follow the changes in the rhythm.
Normally, the lunar time of the festival is in February, but the lunar time of this year's festival is on the twenty-fifth day of the first month, which obviously belongs to the "early sting". According to the experience of our ancestors, the lunar calendar time of the sting comes early, indicating that the weather warms up relatively quickly, which is very conducive to our spring plowing and spring sowing.
As one of the 24 solar terms, it can be a good guide for us to carry out agricultural production, and enter the spring thunder and rain to increase, according to the experience of our ancestors, the weather of the solar terms can affect the weather trend in the futureThere is an old saying in my country's rural areas called "drought is not drought, and the sting looks at the sky early", so how much rain will there be this year? Let's see what the agricultural proverb says.
"Rain showerhead" refers to the rain to wet the hair, indicating that it is raining, this agricultural proverb means that if it rains on the day of the solar term, then according to the experience of our ancestors, then it indicates that there will be more rain for a long time in the future. The "forty-five days" here does not refer to 45 consecutive days of rain, but to the fact that there will be plenty of rain in the future.
The rain during the solar term indicates that both cold and warm air are more active, and when the two are evenly matched and meet, it is prone to continuous rainy weather.
As the old saying goes, "spring rain is as expensive as oil", and spring rain is a good thing for farmers. China's folk attach great importance to the stinging solar term, the sting is regarded as the beginning of spring ploughing, into the stinging solar term soil has thawed, farmers should successively plough out the idle land, in order to prepare for the next spring sowing.
Generally speaking, when the average temperature of the day is stable above 15, we can carry out spring sowing, like our Yunnan region can start planting spring corn at the end of March of the solar calendar. The rainfall after the sting is not only conducive to the growth of wheat, but also conducive to the soil water storage and moisture conservation, which is very conducive to the emergence and growth of spring-sown crops.
This agricultural proverb means that if it rains on the day of the festival, it indicates that there will be more rain in the future, it will be easier for farmers to cultivate the land, and it will be easier for crops to be harvested.
Farmers depend on the weather for food, and changes in the weather have a great impact on farming. In ancient times, when the infrastructure was backward, once the dry weather was encountered, then the crops were at risk of failure, and the seeds after sowing may have to be re-sown, which will greatly increase labor costs; If there is enough rain in the spring, then it will be conducive to the smooth progress of spring plowing and spring sowing, and farming will become relatively easy.
The meaning of this agricultural proverb is very simple, according to the experience of our ancestors, if there is a big sun on the day of the solar term, then according to the experience of our ancestors, it indicates that the next "spring drought" is likely to occur, and this dry and rainy weather may last until the end of the third month of the lunar calendar.
The demand for water is very large for the rejuvenation of spring wheat, jointing, grain filling and the emergence and growth of spring-sown crops, once the spring drought occurs, the harvest of wheat will be seriously affected, and the spring-sown crops will also appear to lack seedlings and broken ridges, and the grain yield will be seriously reduced, and serious may also lead to difficulties in drinking water for people and animals.
This agricultural proverb means that if there is thunder on the day of the solar term, then according to the experience of our ancestors, it indicates that the rain will be very abundant on the dog days.
Thunder is a type of severe convective weather, when the air is moist enough and the air is vigorously moving, it is easy to form thunder, and summer is the most frequent time period for thunder. Entering the stinging solar term, the amount of solar radiation is getting stronger and stronger, and the spring thunder begins to roar.
Dog days are the hottest time of the year in China, the time is about between the summer solar term and the summer solar term, this time period is also the fastest time for crop growth, crops have the largest demand for water, and crops grow particularly fast in high temperature and humidity weather, so dog days are very conducive to a bumper harvest of grain. As the old saying goes, "spring drought is not a drought, summer drought is cut in half", and less rain on hot dog days can lead to severe crop losses.
According to our ancestors, if it rains or thunders, it indicates that there will be more rain in the future; And if the sun is big in the solar term, it indicates that there will be relatively little rain in the future.
