The difference between midsummer and midsummer

Midsummer and midsummer are two solar terms related to summer, which are used to represent different stages of summer in the China lunar calendar system. The following is a detailed explanation of midsummer and midsummer:

Midsummer: Midsummer, also known as "summer solstice", is the fourth solar term in summer, which falls on June 2 1 or 22 of the lunar calendar every year. It marks that the sun reaches 90 degrees of the yellow meridian, and the position where the sun points directly at the earth in the sky is the northernmost.

In midsummer, most areas are in hot summer, and the temperature rises gradually. At this time, the sun shines for the longest time, the longest day and the shortest night. As the weather gets hotter and hotter after the summer solstice, people usually call it the beginning of the whole summer.

Midsummer: Midsummer, also known as "midsummer to midsummer", is the fifth solar term in summer, which falls on the seventh or eighth day of the seventh lunar month every year. It marks the middle of summer.

In midsummer and summer, it has entered a high temperature period, usually with high temperature and hot weather. At noon, the position where the sun shines directly on the earth is near 30 degrees north latitude. At this time, the length of day and night is relatively balanced, and the time of day and night is almost equal.

Midsummer is also a time to celebrate some traditional festivals, such as Qixi Valentine's Day in China and Midsummer Festival in Northern Europe. During this period, people often hold outdoor activities, enjoy the moon, light bonfires and other celebration ceremonies.

To sum up, midsummer and midsummer are both important moments in summer, indicating the starting point and middle period of summer. They mark the arrival of summer and further heating, and are also related to people's lives, customs and celebrations.
