Summer solstice solar terms represent flowers.

Eight ancient poems of hibiscus, the flower of the summer solstice: Zhu Hua hibiscus and Jinghuashan hibiscus.

Midsummer comes to the summer solstice, which is an important time for the sun to shine directly on the Tropic of Cancer. The summer solstice is an important astronomical festival in ancient times. Taking this day as the node, the sun has the highest angle in the northern hemisphere and the longest day. In ancient times, the division of seasons and time was the most important node and coordinate.

Therefore, the summer solstice festival is the festival of the ancient sun god. Before the pre-Qin period, the worship of the sun had been maintained. For example, the son of heaven will wear red clothes representing the sun and fire, and the horse will worship the sun god with a lot of red. This ancient ceremony lasted until the Qing Dynasty and was an important ceremony of natural imperial power.

The ancients often used special phenology that can represent this season to express natural feelings and worship gods.

So, what phenological phenomena can be expressed around summer?

The Book of Rites, which records the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty, describes the summer solstice in this way. The wheat in the field has been harvested, and the son of heaven should take the lead in tasting wheat at this time and sacrifice wheat and cherries to his ancestors. The solstice of summer came, the sun rose to the zenith, deer in the forest felt Yin Qi's fallen antlers, cicadas sang, Pinellia ternata grew, and hibiscus bloomed.

Although the Book of Rites does not say that hibiscus must be sacrificed to ancestors and sun gods, hibiscus will be used in national summer solstice ceremonies after Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Because hibiscus not only blooms in summer solstice, but also is a delicious food and medicine. In addition, Night Sailing records that before the Yellow Emperor, the ancients used hibiscus branches to weave and build houses, and after the Yellow Emperor, they began to build large palaces.

The significance of hibiscus to the summer solstice is that it is a flower that opens to the sun in midsummer, beautiful and delicate, representing the induction of land output to solar terms. Not all flowers bloom in midsummer, but hibiscus flowers are widely used in the construction of farmland and villages in the pre-Qin period with its vigorous vitality, guarding the countryside and harvesting in summer, and paying tribute to the sun and gods in summer, which has profound and sincere meaning. It is like a summer flower, proud of the sun.

Hibiscus flowers are also very distinctive, because in the ancient summer solstice in the north, you can hardly see the blooming lotus flowers (lotus flowers mostly appear in Shui Ze in the south of the Yangtze River). You don't lack such beautiful hibiscus flowers. When they are in full bloom, you can pick them with a basket, because beautiful flowers are not only flowers, but also can be used as food when there is no green or yellow.

"A lesbian car, China Yan Rushun.

I can fly, I can wear jade and Joan.

He is beautiful and ginger, but he is beautiful and beautiful. "Week? The Book of Songs "Lesbian Cars"

There may be marriages all year round, but most marriages in the pre-Qin period were arranged in the off-season. An important period is midsummer when hibiscus blooms after wheat matures. At this time, people freed themselves from the busy farm work and began to enjoy the fruits and carnival in midsummer, all kinds of sacrifices, and of course, some married at will.

Arrange the wedding in summer, don't have a mature beauty.

Put the dressed woman on the horses and chariots, with green trees and hibiscus flowers on the roadside. That woman's beautiful face is full of summer brilliance, just like the hibiscus in the morning sun.

Driving a carriage and walking on the road of hibiscus flowers is a kind of calmness and enrichment of the fairy family in the forest. The young couple were bathed in midsummer sunshine and flowers. May your life be as idyllic as a hibiscus tree, full of flowers and endless happiness.

Therefore, there will be hibiscus flowers in the royal sacrifice from the summer solstice, which is a memory and continuation of the ancient past and a blessing to the land and the future.

"Furong Rongqiu tomb, colorful.

During the day, in the forest, I was on the roadside.

Crickets sing for their families, and cockroaches sing for thorns.

Mayflies play three dynasties, close your wings.

Put away the clothes and wipe them for whoever wears them.

When it comes to life geometry, be generous and work hard. "Cao Wei? Ruan Ji "Yong Huai? Already 66? 》

It was found in the fields of Shan Ye. It blooms in midsummer, so it is meaningless in summer. Ruan Ji, a scholar with Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi thoughts, saw hibiscus in full bloom in a special place. This poem is actually very interesting.

Where does hibiscus grow? It grows on the edge of the mountain grave and produces the most gorgeous flowers like the sun.

When the sun goes down during the day, these hibiscus flowers on the roadside wither.

At this time, crickets are singing in the front and back of the house on summer nights, cicadas are singing in the branches, and ephemera in the water are flying around with wings.

This is a vibrant feeling in the summer countryside.

In this natural loneliness, Ruan Ji saw the magnificence of life itself.

After being dead all his life, he felt that life was too short. Like hibiscus, like all short lives in summer, he should make generous efforts to bloom himself.

In fact, this poem is magnificent and profound.

"The grave, furong yao.

The glory has not been exhausted in the DPRK and has been shattered.

If it is the grass in the western hills, Langqi and Danhe.

The shadow is near Zengcheng, and the rest is light.

It is best to be a teenager, but it is difficult to consult for a long time. Ruan Ji "Yong Huai? Eighty-two? 》

It is this hibiscus growing on the grave that gives him a sense of time.

The hibiscus flowers in front of the grave are blooming in the sunshine, very gorgeous and beautiful.

It's just that the hibiscus flower is too short, and the continuous wind blows it down.

Hibiscus flowers don't last as long as those eternal plants in Xishan, such as bamboo and ganoderma lucidum.

Seeing hibiscus reminds me of my short youth and life, which may be as difficult to last as hibiscus.

On the one hand, I hope I am born like a summer flower, gorgeous like a hibiscus and cherish my limited life. On the other hand, it is a pity that hibiscus flowers will not last long, and it is difficult to have sustained glory.

Then it is also said here that hibiscus is a plant feature.

Hibiscus blooms in the morning. Because there are many flowers, it takes only one or two days to form a flower in the long evolutionary history. This is because as long as there is wind and insect media to pollinate it, its petals will wither quickly, thus providing sufficient nutrition for the seeds. However, although the flowering period of a flower is short, the flowering period of the whole tree flower is as long as half a year, and it is as gorgeous as peaches and plums in spring.

So for the whole tree, this metabolism is enough to ensure survival and continuity.

But for every flower, the life cycle is really gorgeous and short.

In fact, in the pre-Qin period, many people were happy to collect these flowers in the countryside, because they were delicious food and even used as meal replacement in famine years.

But for many people, especially wandering literati, hibiscus flowers are gorgeous and short-lived, which brings a short and sad feeling.

It is precisely because of this brilliance that Ruan Ji is short-lived, and these two poems are used to express the enthusiasm and unknowns of youth. However, after the Tang Dynasty, due to the huge number of literati and the instability of reality, the aesthetics of hibiscus flowers began to focus on the so-called tragic beauty.

People who really see hibiscus flowers in full bloom have a magnificent and prosperous atmosphere, which is enough to cover up this sense of withering.

"North porch spring scattered, south stone tinea.

Pure Huashan hibiscus, true water hibiscus. ? "Early tang dynasty? Excerpt from Liu Xiyi's poem "Shaozhou Lingjiuguangguo Second Temple, the temples are connected, all the same"

Look at the temples in the mountains with the most calm and broad-minded heart, and what kind of scenery with what kind of heart.

In that mountain forest, the door in the north faces a mountain spring, and the steps in the south are covered with thick moss.

After Shan Yu, the hibiscus flowers are clean and open, and the hibiscus flowers in the water naturally grow freely.

This is the natural beauty of hibiscus.

Hibiscus flowers are mainly purple and pink, which are brighter towards the sun. It is that kind of bright, exquisite, elegant, unpretentious, gorgeous and elegant, as if the nobility is in the mountains and the lady is in the forest.

Catch the net and point out the natural and pure beauty of hibiscus. It makes people feel relaxed and Zen.

"Day to when the wheel is full, star lang fu play spin.

If you still want to draft, there will be more falling flowers.

Smell is mixed with clothes, and light invades the painting wall.

If you are endowed with a gentleman, you can't talk to a fairy. "Early tang dynasty? Song Wenzhi's Works of Zhu Jin in Wei Langzhong Hospital of Jinghe Official Department

Hibiscus represents the arrival of the summer solstice. In the palaces of the Tang Dynasty, there were many plants to take advantage of its prosperity. In May, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty hosted a banquet for courtiers at the Dragon Boat Festival and arranged it in a waterside palace with hibiscus flowers.

In Guanbai's work place, hibiscus is also planted to show that we don't forget the merits of summer sunshine and the farming enthusiasm of our ancestors.

This is a poem written by Song, a famous minister in the Wu Zetian period, to his colleagues, because in summer, hibiscus blooms.

The summer solstice sun is in full swing, and the hibiscus tree is full of trees and flowers in front of the sun. I happened to see you back the next morning.

You can draft the imperial edict that the emperor wants in Furong's office, or you can write down the leisurely falling flowers of Furong.

Writing about falling flowers in the early Tang Dynasty was not as sad as later generations. Appreciate hibiscus flowers and bloom at the same time. There are lovely purple fallen flowers on the green grass, which has a quiet and elegant court beauty. This also helped his colleagues write beautiful poems.

Hibiscus flowers are mixed with clothes, and lush branches extend to murals. This situation is like a fairy cave.

Even if the hibiscus flowers fall, it is also the beauty of nature, dotted with the tranquility and elegance of government agencies in summer. The whole poem is bright, beautiful and prosperous.

"He is a poet, sternly belongs to China.

The romantic feeling is different generations, more graceful than the same car.

Bright and clean, autumn is separated by crimson yarn.

After the cicada sings and the insect thinks, the bamboo is overcast. "In the middle of the tang dynasty? Yang Shizhen, "playing hibiscus? " 》

In fact, after the middle Tang Dynasty, the pessimistic beauty of hibiscus flowers began to fill poetry, which was more morbid.

But there are always people who correct people's prejudices with bright and beautiful poems.

For example, this poem describes the beauty of hibiscus, a wonderful flower in the era of The Book of Songs.

The hibiscus flowers are blooming around, which is graceful, as if the beauty of the Book of Songs is sitting beside her, driving a carriage with you.

The beauty and long flowering period of hibiscus flowers are all loved by people.

It's just that this ancient, light and beautiful hibiscus flower is now underestimated and not loved, which is very disappointing.

Most of the literati's appreciation of flowers is utilitarian and uneven, and the times have caused different spiritual aesthetics. Hibiscus is innocent and is regarded as a representative of short-lived flowers.

But what about real hibiscus?

"Qingyang Yurun is talented, and it is not ripe for the moment.

Hibiscus can also float on the cup, don't wait for Dongli Huangju to open. "Don? Shangliu, "send Wang Zhen? 》

However, this poem is full of joy of life and is written for a friend.

You are gentle, warm and talented, but the day I met you, I missed the early spring when plum blossoms were in full bloom.

I will wait for you to come back on the summer solstice, because there are hibiscus flowers on the summer solstice, which can be eaten or floated on the glass.

Please don't miss the midsummer when the hibiscus flowers are in full bloom, and don't wait until the chrysanthemums are in bloom.

This is a very simple pastoral language. It doesn't matter what hibiscus symbolizes. It is important that Furong can come back and meet on the solstice of summer. Hibiscus is edible and delicious. This is a delicious and tonic. Even if you have the red light of green wine outside, it is not as good as the real treasure of Shan Ye and the domestic customs here.

Do you want to see a cup of hibiscus beauty, which is especially fragrant and slippery?

I like this poem because it restores the natural beauty of hibiscus and farmers.

"The smoke is long and warm without frost and snow, and the flowers are full of mangroves.

Every time I sigh in wheatgrass, I feel very tired, and I don't know if there is a spring breeze. "Don? Zhu Jin flowers in Li Shen.

In fact, in Lingnan, hibiscus flowers can bloom all year round, because the four seasons are like spring, which is just suitable for hibiscus flowers.

Hibiscus is full of flowers all year round, and the flowers will never break.

Some people say that hibiscus flowers are summer flowers, but when you come to Lingnan, do you know that hibiscus flowers bloom and wither along the spring breeze? It blooms all year round. It doesn't know the so-called spring breeze, and it has no intention of clinging to it.

There are so many hibiscus flowers that you don't know the four seasons at all.

Who says hibiscus is a short-lived flower, but hibiscus is a longevity flower?

It's the summer solstice again, and hibiscus, the flower of the summer solstice, either blooms or fades, but this does not damage the bright and fresh beauty of summer flowers.

Life, like summer flowers, should also have the unshakable position of hibiscus. It is said that the human heart is a flower, which falls before the wind blows. For Furong, it's just a flowered skirt that needs to be changed every night. What's so sad? I don't believe you. Look at the branches of the next day. They are still purple and rose, and you have a new dress.

The first coat is better than snow to explain the love and beauty in the poem for you. .
