On September 23, the autumn equinox wind cleared the first half of the cold autumn.

Tomorrow is 2065438+September 23rd, 2007, which is the annual equinox solar term. At this time, most parts of China have entered autumn, and the climate is cool and dry. Since ancient times, literati have left many poems depicting beautiful scenery and expressing their feelings in the autumn equinox, and there are also many folk customs to celebrate festivals. Let me introduce them to you below.

Q: When is the autumnal equinox of 20 17?

A: The autumnal equinox solar term of 20 17 begins on September 23rd and ends on June 8th of 10.

The night is still shallow, and the season wants the autumn equinox. According to the lunar calendar, autumn begins with the beginning of autumn and ends with the first frost, and the autumnal equinox just divides the season equally. On the day of the autumnal equinox, the length of day and night is equal. After the autumnal equinox, the days get shorter, the nights get longer, and it turns from hot to cold.

Although the weather is pleasant, some phenology of the autumnal equinox will still touch the poet's delicate nerves. Yuan Zhen's "Twenty-four Poems in Mid-August": the piano is playing and the scenery is high-definition. Dark clouds fluttered and thunder roared. Dry Kun can be quiet, cold and summer are flat. Do you dare to be surprised to see a new goose suddenly? Poems from the first couplet to the neck couplet describe the characteristics of the autumnal equinox, all of which are landscapes. Finally, the poet suddenly saw the wild goose from the south, and he was shocked. The feeling that time flies is beyond words.

Wild geese also arouse the homesickness of wanderers. In ancient times, traffic was not as developed as it is now. In autumn, travelers who go out should consider starting to go home. The return of geese will naturally arouse travelers' homesickness. Sun Zuo, a Ming man, heard the sound of wild geese on the night of the autumnal equinox, so he was homesick and needed to drown his sorrows with wine: his hometown should be white, and the autumnal equinox should be cool at night. The moon is bright and the mountains are quiet, and a wild goose smells in the clear sky. I felt very sad when I was alone, and I was drunk from the beginning. Nanshan beans were ripe and harvested that year.

Yu Xin, on the other hand, raised his homesickness to homesickness: tourists have traveled through the years and have a lot of feelings when traveling. Learn from Hengyang goose and cross the river at the autumnal equinox. Yu Xin was originally an official of Nanliang and was ordered to go to the Northern Wei Dynasty. However, during this period, the Liang Dynasty was destroyed by the Western Wei Dynasty, and Yu Xin had to stay in the north. At the autumnal equinox, watching Hengyang geese cross the Yellow River and return to the south, the poet issued a strong desire to fly south like geese and return to the old country, but Yu Xin eventually died of old age in the north.

Wanderers who have lived in other places for a long time are homesick, while their relatives are also missing the wanderers in their hometown. What caused the disappearance was only another migratory bird, the swallow. Swallows come at the spring equinox and go at the autumn equinox, so they are called teachers. Zi Jingyi, a poet in A Qing, wrote in "Recalling Economy at the Equinox": "I miss my son at every festival, and I sing poetry until late. Yan Xihui will leave tomorrow, and Qiu will leave at this time. Traveling against the sky, I only sell articles in my life. Why don't you hang up early before it snows? I hope the wanderers will start home as soon as possible, and don't wait for the heavy snow to delay their return.

The autumnal equinox used to be a traditional festival to worship the moon. The annotation in Li Zhou Guan Chun says that the autumnal equinox is the sun in the morning and the moon at night, which means the emperor's ritual to worship the moon. The emperor's custom of offering sacrifices to the moon has been passed down to later generations. In the Song Dynasty, there were "four poems about the autumn equinox and the evening moon", depicting the scene of emperors offering sacrifices to the moon.

On the autumnal equinox, ordinary people appreciate Yue Bai and the moon. However, because the autumnal equinox is not necessarily the full moon, in order not to spoil the scenery, the day of enjoying the moon was later moved to the full moon day closest to the autumnal equinox in the Mid-Autumn Festival. In addition, since the Han Dynasty, the fifth day after beginning of autumn was established as Autumn Society Day, which was the day when the ancients offered sacrifices to the land gods, usually around the autumnal equinox.

If the autumnal equinox coincides with Mid-Autumn Festival and Friendship Day, it is a rare auspicious day in the eyes of the ancients. Liu August 15, a poet in the Song Dynasty, presented the autumnal equinox as another society, describing such a day: in the first half of the autumnal equinox, the soul looked back at the night. It's rare to have fun, but it will still be the same. Tall buildings can cure deafness even at night. Attention, if you want to take passengers, why not hit TuWeng? People drink all night on this day to celebrate, because they think drinking on social days can cure deafness. Besides drinking, people also play games in the soil.
