The ancients called the day before beginning of spring "the last day". How did this name come from?

Not only the day before beginning of spring, but also the day before the long summer, beginning of autumn and beginning of winter are amazing. This statement is based on the changes of yin and yang and the five elements. Beginning of spring, Changsha, beginning of autumn and beginning of winter represent the beginning of a season, so the previous day represents the end of the previous season. These four days are also called four days.

The day before in beginning of spring is the last day of winter, which means that winter is coming to an end. In winter, the five elements belong to water, so the day before beginning of spring is a day of water shortage; The day before long summer is the last day of spring, so this day is also called Mujue Day. The day before beginning of autumn is the last day of summer, so this day is also called open day; The day before beginning of winter is the last day of autumn, so this day is also called Hsi Chin Day.

It definitely means that there are no definite five elements on this day, and there are only four lines left in the five elements, so the five elements will not cycle. The ancients thought that things that don't spread will die, which means that there will be no auspicious things on this day. If you want to get married at home, you can't choose to open the market on this day to get rich.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the day of the four wonders is the day when the season is about to start after the end of last season, and it is also the moment when the old and new officials hand over to each other. The ancients were superstitious. They think that nothing will go smoothly on this day without the protection of the gods. In ancient times, with the yellow calendar, every four days, it was written that Pepsi was not suitable or everything was not suitable.

In fact, in addition to these four sacred days, there are still four days away from the sun. The so-called four-distance sun refers to the day before spring to summer solstice and autumn to winter solstice. Like these four days, Self-Departure Day represents the end of the last season and the beginning of the next season.

Beginning of spring often catches up with the Spring Festival this season, so it is necessary to paste couplets before the Spring Festival. The ancients didn't put up couplets the day before beginning of spring, because it was the Four Wonders Day. The ancients thought that it was unlucky to paste couplets, and it was not suitable for pasting couplets.

With the changes of the times, superstition has been gradually broken. Now people don't care about four days off and four days off. These days are just an ordinary day.
