Ningbo solar term Bailu

Millennium is one of the 24 solar terms, which means that the temperature changes and the weather turns cold. The reason why it is called the White Dew is because the dew shines under the refraction of sunlight and is very beautiful, so it is called the White Dew. Another way of saying it is that there are five elements that coincide with each other. In autumn, the five elements belong to gold, corresponding to the white in the five colors, hence the name White Deer.
