Stand in the snow and play a solar term.
The word "beginning of winter" comes from the wisdom of ancient farming culture in China. The ancients divided a year into twenty-four solar terms according to the running law of the sun and the climate characteristics. Among them, "Li" means initiation and establishment, and "winter" represents cold winter. By the beginning of winter, the harvest of crops in most areas has basically ended, and it has entered the stage of storage and cultivation, and the soil has gradually entered a dormant period, and biological activities tend to decrease.
It symbolizes the process of convergence of all things and the gradual growth of yin and yang, and emphasizes conforming to the laws of nature, storing energy in time and waiting for the arrival of spring. This thought is consistent with Taoism's theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, and embodies the thought of harmonious life in China's traditional culture.
