When did Lao Huang Li wake up today?

The meaning of fear

"A light rain brought new flowers, and a thunder began to start. "At 5: 00 10 on the 6th, the" shocking "solar term was ushered in.

Surprisingly, the traditional spring is the third solar term. That is, from March 5th (or 6th) to March 20th (or 2 1 day) every year, the time when the sun is on the ecliptic from 345 to 360 (0) longitude is about 15 days. At this time, the direct point of the sun moved from 5 57 ′ s to the equator.

Jing Zhe, formerly known as "Qi Zhe", was renamed to avoid Liu Qi, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. At this time, the weather is getting warmer, apricot blossoms are in full bloom, spring thunder rings, snakes and insects wake up, and most parts of China enter the spring ploughing season, and the fields are busy.

Three stages of fear

In ancient China, the fright was divided into three stages: one was when the peach blossoms were in full bloom; Second, wait for Cang Geng (Huang Li) to speak; Three waiting eagles turned into pigeons. It means that the peach blossom is red, like a rosy cloud; The oriole began to sing; There is no eagle in the sky, only the turtledove is singing. The flower letter represented by the three stages of panic is: "peach blossom, apricot blossom and rose." When three flowers are in full bloom, there is the crackle of spring everywhere.

Meteorological data also show that the average temperature in most parts of China is above zero degrees Celsius, except that it is still winter in the northeast and northwest.

"1999, the wind in the south of the Yangtze River warmed up and the green fields began to plow in spring." Agricultural and meteorological experts further said that the season of fright coincided with the "99" sunny day. There is a folk saying: "When nine flowers are in full bloom, farm work will get together". At this time, most parts of China have entered the spring ploughing season, and farmers all over the country are preparing for spring ploughing.

Sting custom

"I was shocked to clear the field, and the bugs died tens of millions." This agricultural proverb points out the agricultural theme of phenology and solar terms.

Sting refers to the state that animals lurk in soil or holes when hibernating. The ancient people understood that the sudden movement of spring thunder awakened the dormant and hibernating animals in the soil.

In fact, it is not thunder, but the return of spring and warmer weather that cause animals to end hibernation. During the period of fright, the temperature rose rapidly, and spring thunder gradually appeared in most areas of the Yangtze River basin, with beautiful spring and renewed Vientiane. Wheat in the north has begun to turn green and jointing, and farmers are busy cleaning ditches in the fields, cultivating seedlings, fertilizing, preventing diseases, weeds and pests, and sowing cotton and corn. An agricultural proverb says, "It is better to turn over a piece of dung than to turn over the fields in spring." It can be seen that the main farming during the period of fright is spring ploughing, fertilization and pest control.

For farmers, pests are rice bowls and must be eliminated. Therefore, the related folk custom of fright is related to "insects".

Sprinkle lime all over your body to avoid pests.

An agricultural proverb says, "Killing a bug in spring is better than killing a thousand bugs in summer." Therefore, when insects just start to sting people, they should be removed in time. As the saying goes, "there is no cleverness in exterminating insects, as long as you start early."

During the panic, hundreds of insects fled around in shock, spreading all over the countryside and home, or hurting crops or disturbing lives. The people hated this, so they came up with all kinds of practices with witchcraft nature, which were implemented for a long time and formed folk customs.

In the southeast of Shandong, housewives knock on the kitchen table with cooking sticks, which is called "zhèn bug"; String colored paper, straw or fine straw and hang it on the beam of the hall, which is called "string dragon tail" Some people knocked on the surface of the ladle and recited a spell while knocking: "On February 2, knock on the ladle fork, and nine nests of rats are blind, and one nest is not blind. Give it to the old eight families in Nanling." (Old Eight-fingered Snake)

Insecticide, in addition to the use of biological weapons, there are chemical W incarnation. Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty, said in the book "A Thousand Women's Moon Order": "When you feel scared, you can take a lime bowl outside the threshold to drive away insects and ants. "Lime used to have the function of killing insects. On the day of the sting, it was sprinkled outside the threshold, and everyone thought that insects and ants were afraid to come to the door for a year.

Suichuan, Jiangxi also had the habit of killing insects in his early years. He sprinkled some lime powder on the walls, corrals and toilets in front of and behind the house to kill insects and insects. In Tingzhou, Fujian, people sprinkle lime on the corners of kitchen tables and under columns. Besides, when they hear the first spring thunder, they should shake their clothes quickly, thinking that they can be free from lice and fleas for many years. All these practices are designed to scare insects when they come out of stings.

Fried soybeans are like eating insects.

In Shaanxi, Gansu, Jiangsu, Shandong and other places, people fry soybeans and sesame seeds in pots, which is called "exploding longan" and seeking good weather. Then men, women and children compete for fried soybeans and eat them, which means "eating insects", which means that people and animals are free from diseases and crops are harmless.

Yao people in Jinxiu county, Guangxi want to eat "fried insects" on this day of fright. After the "bugs" are fried, put them in the hall and the whole family will sit around for dinner. They will also eat and shout: "eat bugs, eat bugs!" " The "worm" here is actually corn kernels, which is symbolic.

In Tingzhou, Fujian, people cook taro with skin, which symbolizes caterpillars. Eating taro means killing all insects. In Shandong, it is popular to roll cakes and burn cigarettes in patios, which means killing pests in houses through smoke and fire.

In addition to eating "worms", pears are also popular in Shanxi, which means leaving pests behind. From a health point of view, it's warm and cold in the first place, and the climate is relatively dry, which makes people thirsty and cough due to exogenous factors. Pear, cold and sweet, has the effects of moistening lung, relieving cough, nourishing yin and clearing away heat, so it is scientific to eat pears in shock.

Stay away from right and wrong sacrifices

In the legend of jiān, the white tiger is the god of breath and right and wrong. Every year, it comes out to feed and eat people on the day of fear. In order to protect themselves, people sacrifice white tigers and white blades on the day of fright.

How to sacrifice? In fact, it is a tiger painted with paper for worship. Paper tigers are generally yellow and black stripes with a pair of fangs painted on the corners. When offering sacrifices, you need to feed it with pig blood, which means that eating it will not hurt people, and then put raw pork on the mouth of the paper tiger to make it full of oil and water, and you can't say that people are right and wrong. In other places, duck eggs are used as food.

Jingzhe health

Dressing should be based on covering.

Although the weather gets warmer during the sting season, the temperature changes greatly, especially at night and at noon, so everyone should pay attention to keep warm when wearing.

Some young girls often wear colorful dresses in early spring, which is actually very harmful to their health. Exposed limbs will feel cold and numb, unable to move, pain and other discomfort due to cold attacks. Therefore, at this time, festivals should still focus on the "coverage" of clothing.

Early to bed and early to rise "spring sleep"

When everything recovers in spring, we should go to bed early and get up early, take a slow walk, stretch our limbs and breathe the fresh air in spring, so as to conform to the natural law of spring, make our spirits happy, and at the same time strengthen our physique, improve our disease resistance and keep healthy.

Stay calm and be careful of getting angry.

During the period of fright, people's liver qi is strong, and they are often prone to symptoms such as swelling and pain, blushing, irritability and elevated blood pressure.

Therefore, we should pay attention to avoid excessive drinking and staying up late; Keep calm at all times, don't be overly excited, and avoid impatience and anger, otherwise the liver qi will rise too fast, and it will easily lead to dizziness and stroke. At the same time, you can drink the brewed rose water every day, which plays the role of soothing the liver and relieving depression and beauty beauty.

In addition, the diet should be scientific and reasonable, eat less animal fat foods, and eat more fresh vegetables and rich foods in protein, such as milk, radish, rape and yam. , so as to enhance physical fitness and resist the invasion of jūn disease.

The meaning and explanation of fear

1. Sting is a solar term, which means that when spring thunder rings, hibernating animals will wake up and start moving around. 2. Stinking is the third solar term in China in spring. Since then, in the mid-spring season, the temperature in most parts of China has started to rise. Farmers should start preparing for spring ploughing. This solar term was originally called "Qi Zhe", but later it was changed to "Jing Zhe" to avoid the name of Emperor Han Jing. 3. China is a typical temperate monsoon climate, which is greatly influenced by the monsoon. Leng Xia is hot in winter, with four distinct seasons. In winter, the Siberian cold current will go south, affecting most parts of the country, resulting in a sudden drop in the national temperature and an increase in rain and snow. In February and March of the following year, the warm southeast monsoon will arrive here, the cold will subside and the ice and snow will melt. In order to adapt to this climate, most animals in China have the characteristics of hibernation. Before the cold winter comes, many animals will find a suitable place to sleep. When the weather gets warmer, they will wake up and start moving and foraging. One of the 24 solar terms is the time when hibernating animals wake up.

What's the meaning of the solar term of fright?

Sting is the third of the 24 solar terms. March 5 or 6 of the Gregorian calendar every year. "Sting" means "hiding". The ancients thought that small animals woke up from hibernation because they were awakened by thunder, so there was a saying of "shocking".
