Are beginning of autumn and Gao Qiu the same?

Beginning of autumn is different from Gao Qiu.

1, beginning of autumn:

Beginning of autumn is 13 of the 24 solar terms and the first solar term in autumn. On August 7th or 8th every year, beginning of autumn is considered as the time when the sun reaches 135. Beginning of autumn's "stand" means the beginning, and "autumn" refers to the maturity of crops.

2. Gao Qiu:

Gao Qiu refers to the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. "It's a sunny day, and the autumn is crisp." In the Book of Changes, nine is the yang number. The ancients took "nine" as the extreme, but in "Su Wen". "Nine Hou Lun" three parts, which said: "The number of heaven and earth starts from one and ends at nine." The ancients thought that nine was the highest number. Therefore, there are such sayings as "Ninth Five-Year Plan" and "Palace weighs nine times", which have become the favorite figures of the royal family to show their noble status.

Meteorological changes in early autumn;

Beginning of autumn has arrived, but not in autumn. The division of climatic seasons should be based on the "average climate temperature", that is, the local average temperature is below 22℃ for five consecutive days, which is the real autumn.

China is a vast country. Although the climate varies from place to place, most areas have not yet entered the autumn climate, and the last days of dog days are still the third day after beginning of autumn. Especially in the south of China, this solar term is still a hot summer. At the same time, because the typhoon rainy season gradually goes away, the temperature is even hotter, and Chinese medicine also calls the period from beginning of autumn to the autumnal equinox "long summer".
