The Chinese translation of the poem Rain in the First Month is as follows:

The meaning and symbol of rain in the 24 solar terms: the temperature rises, the snow melts and the precipitation increases.

Among the 24 solar terms, rain is a solar term reflecting precipitation, which means that rainfall begins and increases. The temperature in the rain solar term began to rise, the sunshine was warm, and the warm and humid airflow was active, with light rain or Mao Mao rain. Twenty-four solar terms were first formulated according to the changes of stars. When the bucket handle of the Big Dipper points to non-zero, it is rain. At present, solar terms are determined according to the longitude of the sun. It will rain when the sun reaches the longitude of 330 degrees, and the time is about February 18 of the Gregorian calendar every year.

The arrival of rain means the real arrival of spring. The temperature is rising and the rainfall is increasing. In ancient China, rainwater was divided into three stages: "One stage was that Rex sacrificed fish; Second, wait for Hongyan to come; Third, wait for the grass to sprout. "

In this solar term, otters start fishing and put the fish on the shore like sacrifices before eating; Five days later, the geese began to fly back to the north from the south; In five days, in the "moist and silent" spring rain, the spirit of the sun rises everywhere in the vegetation and begins to sprout. Since then, the earth has gradually begun to show a thriving scene.

24 solar terms:

Solar terms refer to the twenty-four solar terms, which is a supplementary calendar formulated by China in ancient times to guide farming, and is the crystallization of the long-term experience and wisdom of the working people of the Chinese nation. Since China was an agricultural society in ancient times, agriculture needed to have a strict understanding of the operation of the sun, and farming was carried out entirely according to the sun. Therefore, the "twenty-four solar terms" that reflect the solar cycle alone are added to the calendar as the standard for determining leap months.

China's orthodox 24 solar terms are based on Henan. China's lunar calendar is a combination of yin and yang, which is based on the movement of the sun and the moon, so adding 24 solar terms can better reflect the cycle of the sun's movement.

24 solar terms are: beginning of spring, Rainy, Scared, Equinox, Qingming, Grain Rain, Changxia and Xiaoman? , Miscanthus, Summer Solstice, Little Summer, Big Summer, beginning of autumn, Chushu, Millennium, Autumnal Equinox, Cold Dew, First Frost, beginning of winter, Light Snow, Heavy Snow, Winter Solstice, Slight Cold and Severe Cold. 2016165438+1October 30th, China's "Twenty-four solar terms" was officially listed in UNESCO's representative list of human intangible cultural heritage.
