What is the significance of summer heat in the 24 solar terms?

The significance of light summer: the temperature rises in midsummer and enters the summer drought period; However, when North China and Northeast China entered the rainy season, tropical cyclones were active frequently, and the number of tropical cyclones landing in China began to increase. After the summer, the south should pay attention to drought resistance and the north should pay attention to flood control. Crops all over the country have entered a vigorous growth period, and it is necessary to strengthen field management. Signs of slight summer heat: plum blossoms fall.

Slight summer heat is the most vigorous time of human yang, "nourishing yang in spring and summer". Therefore, when people are working, they should pay attention to the combination of work and rest to protect the yang of the human body. Although it is not the hottest season in a year, it is followed by the hottest season in a year. There is a folk saying that "it is a little summer and a big summer, and it is cooked and eaten". This is a busy time for people to grow vegetables and prepare for winter. At this time, most areas in China are also busy with the field management of summer and autumn crops. In a hot climate, people should not neglect health care because of sweating, high consumption and fatigue.
