What does Xiaoman mean in hexagrams?

Xiaoman is one of the 24 solar terms, which usually appears from the end of May to the beginning of June every year, which means that the hot summer is coming and crops have entered an important growth stage. Xiaoman represents that wheat is getting fuller and more mature. At this time, although the weather is getting hotter and hotter, it has not reached the extreme.

Xiaoman is a very important solar term, especially for farmers. At this time, farmers should start harvesting some crops, such as wheat and soybeans, which is very important for their livelihood. At the same time, as the weather turns hot, farmers should start mowing grass and pruning fruit trees. Therefore, Xiaoman is regarded as a red-letter day for farmers.

Xiaoman's flower sea scene is very charming. At this time, rape flowers and red-crowned crane flowers in the mountains will compete to open, forming a gorgeous scene. In China, there are many traditional customs in Xiaoman season, such as drinking new tea and basking in the sun. Drinking tea can clear away heat and relieve summer heat, and sunbathing can promote the body to produce vitamin D, which is beneficial to people's health. These traditional customs not only have unique cultural connotations, but also are suitable for being widely spread in modern life.
