The "constant gas method" takes the long summer solar term when the sun reaches 45 degrees of the yellow meridian. The ancients paid great attention to the etiquette and customs of "Long Summer". In the past, people held a "welcoming summer" ceremony in the long summer to express their prayers and good wishes for a bumper harvest.

On the day of summer solstice, the position where the sun shines directly on the ground reaches the northernmost part of the year, almost directly on the tropic of cancer. At this time, the daylight hours in all parts of the northern hemisphere reach the longest in the whole year.
