Frightening solar term phenomenon

The sun's spirit rises, the temperature warms up, the spring thunder vibrates and the rain increases.

Sting, also called gas sting, is the third of the 24 solar terms. When the sun reaches 345 degrees, it will cross the Gregorian calendar on March 5-6. Sting reflects the phenomenon that natural creatures germinate and grow under the influence of rhythm changes. Farming production is closely related to the rhythm of nature, and the solar term of fright is of great significance in farming, which is the reflection of ancient farming culture on natural festivals.

The season of fright is warm and cold, and the climate is relatively dry, which makes people thirsty and cough due to exogenous factors. There is a folk custom of eating pears in surprise. Raw pears are cold and sweet, and have the effects of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, nourishing yin and clearing heat. Pears can be eaten raw, steamed, juiced, roasted or boiled.
