What solar term is the beginning of the mid-spring season?

The beginning of the mid-spring season is frightening.

Shocking, the ancient name "Qixi" is the third solar term in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar, marking the beginning of the mid-spring season; When the sun reaches the longitude of 345 degrees.

Emperor Jing, the fifth emperor of the Han Dynasty, was taboo about "Qi". In order to avoid it, he changed the word "Qi" to the word "Jing" with different pronunciation but slightly closer at that time. However, because the meaning changed from "start" to "wake up", the order was slightly different, so the order of Meng Chun's first month's fright and midsummer's February's "rain" was also changed. Similarly, the order of "Grain Rain" and "Qingming" has been replaced.
