24 solar terms has beginning of spring every year. Why is there a year of spring?

There is a beginning of spring in the 24 solar terms every year, which refers to the solar calendar, that is, the Gregorian calendar year.

A year without spring means that there are no solar terms in beginning of spring in the lunar calendar year.

In general, the number of days in the lunar calendar is less than that in the solar calendar, so there are leap months in the lunar calendar. The leap month in the lunar calendar is to balance the days between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar.

It should be noted that the leap month in the solar calendar is only February, and the leap month in normal years is only one day longer than February.

I won't say much about leap years and leap months here.

Tell you a recent practical example:

There is no solar term in beginning of spring on 20 16 (Year of the Monkey).

February 4th, 20 16 in beginning of spring, February 3rd, 20 17 in beginning of spring, February 8th, 20 16 (after beginning of spring), 2065438+1October 28th (before beginning of spring). From February 8, 20 16 to June 28, 20 17, and from February 4, 20 16 to February 3, 20 17, the year of the monkey in the lunar calendar is a year without spring.

I hope I can help you.
