What is the origin of beginning of spring? The legend of beginning of spring.

1, beginning of spring is one of the important traditional solar terms of the Han nationality. "Li" means "start". Since the Qin Dynasty, China has always regarded beginning of spring as the beginning of spring. Beginning of spring is divided from astronomy, with spring flowers and flowers; Spring is growth, cultivation and sowing. The period from the beginning of the Spring Festival to the long summer is called spring.

A long time ago, people only knew hunting, not farming. They are often hungry and have a hard life. Later, with the Shennong family, people began to grow crops and their lives gradually improved. So the first three queens and the five emperors are very concerned about farming. In the Zhou Dynasty, they even mentioned farming to North Korea and ordered local officials to hold a welcoming ceremony every year to work with the people.

It is said that the ceremony at that time was very grand. On the day before the spring, local officials took a bath, put on plain clothes, walked to the suburbs without riding a horse or riding a sedan chair, gathered villagers, set a sacrificial table, burned incense and kowtowed, made a local cow symbolizing spring cattle at the table as a sacrifice, and asked the chief to dress up as a dog god symbolizing harvest and raise a whip to fight, in order to defeat the laziness of spring cattle and usher in a bumper harvest for a year. The beginning of spring contains our longing for a better life in the coming year.
