What season is October in the lunar calendar?

Winter Moon, also known as Gu Yue, Long Moon, Late October and Midwinter, is another name for November of the lunar calendar. The winter solstice in 24 solar terms falls on 1 1 month of the lunar calendar, so the 1 1 month of the lunar calendar will be called the winter month.

"Historical Records of Zen Pass" contains: "The Yellow Emperor's strategy of getting a treasure tripod is to be old, win the winter solstice, win the discipline of heaven, and start all over again." In other words, in the Yellow Emperor's place, the winter solstice is regarded as New Year's Day (New Moon Festival).

This proves that the solstice is the winter of the year, also known as "the beginning of the year" and "New Year's Day". Later, there was a saying that the solstice in winter was as big as a year, which was originally from here. Because the solstice in winter is the beginning of a new year, it was called "New Year's Day" at that time, and this day is usually in 1 1 month of the lunar calendar, so 1 1 month is also called the second month.
