Is the vernal equinox vertical egg raw or cooked?

During the vernal equinox, raw eggs or cooked eggs can be used to stand upright, but raw eggs are easier to stand upright, because the center of gravity of cooked eggs has been determined. If the center of gravity does not fall on the supporting surface of eggs, it will not stand upright.

The way to erect an egg at the vernal equinox is to shake the egg back and forth for about ten minutes, with the big head standing. After the raw eggs are set up, coat them with super glue and stand them upright on the table. Or put the inkpad on the desktop and then put the eggs on the inkpad. You will find that there will be a plane at the bottom that is difficult to see with the naked eye. Once the gravity line can pass through this plane, the egg can stand up. Because the position of the yolk in the raw egg will affect the standing of the egg, you should keep your hands still when standing the egg. When the yolk sinks to the bottom of the egg, the center of gravity should be low enough to keep the egg balanced. You can choose an egg with a big head and a small head when choosing. When laying eggs, the big head will face down, because the center of gravity on the big head side is low, and it will be as easy to keep balance as a tumbler.

1 The meaning of dividing eggs in spring expresses the joy of celebrating spring.

On the vernal equinox, people have the custom of laying eggs. Although it is a small game, it has a history of more than 4,000 years, which is not ancient. Can spread to this day, not only contains the joy of people celebrating spring, but also hopes that life will flourish and future generations will stand up.

2. The wisdom of ancestors

Ancestors have mastered and judged solar terms and celestial bodies more than 4,000 years ago, and they are still accurate and practical today. The vernal equinox is when the sun shines directly on the equator. Day and night are equal in the northern and southern hemispheres, that is to say, day and night are divided into twelve hours. As the saying goes, eating the vernal equinox makes the day longer. The polar axis of the earth and the earth's orbit around the sun are in a state of relative balance of power and stable gravity, so only on the vernal equinox is the best time for an egg to stand upright. For children, the process of laying eggs is also a good opportunity to cultivate patience, meditation and concentration. Although there is a win or lose, it is just a joke. Adults also take the opportunity to educate and encourage, which is also entertaining.
