(2) The winter solstice, also known as "Yang Sheng", is an important solar term in the China lunar calendar and a traditional festival of the Chinese nation. Winter solstice is commonly known as the number nine, winter festival, long festival, Asian year and so on. As early as 2500 years ago, during the Spring and Autumn Period, China observed the sun with the earth, and determined the winter solstice, which was the earliest of the 24 solar terms.
The winter solstice originated from China's concept of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang symbolize the balance and coordination of life. China people believe that when the winter solstice comes, it is the time when the dark power and coldness of Yin are the strongest, and it is also an extremely important critical moment, because the light and warmth of Yang will gradually ban the extreme coldness of Yin.
Therefore, the solstice of winter is a harmonious and happy moment. The ancients believed that by the solstice of winter, although it was still in the cold season, spring was not far away.
