When is the cold dew in 2023?

The time of cold dew in 2023 is 65438+1October 8, 2 1: 05.

Cold dew is the seventeenth of the twenty-four solar terms, and autumn is the fifth. The cold dew in 2023 is on August 8, 2 1: 05 in Gregorian calendar, that is, on August 24, the lunar calendar, 2 1: 05. The temperature of cold dew is much lower than solar terms, and the ground is much colder than solar terms, so it is called cold dew.

Cold dew is a symbol of winter, and it is a transitional period from cool to cold. There is a proverb in our country called "dew is white before cold", which means that the dew is a little cold in early autumn and a little cold in late autumn, which means that "cold dew" means "white dew needs frost" in solar terms. In addition, there is another saying: "After three dynasties of cold dew, you have to find a bridge after crossing the water", which means that the weather is already chilly, and you can't wade across the river or go barefoot as before, but you have to cross the bridge after crossing the river.

The custom of cold dew

There is a long-standing custom in the cold dew season, that is, "drinking chrysanthemum wine." Chrysanthemum is a flower in autumn, and it is golden everywhere in late autumn. Its fragrance is refreshing, elegant but not strong. There were too many poems praising "Chrysanthemum" in ancient times, for example, Meng Haoran, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote "Wait until the mountain holiday, and I will come back when I am in Chrysanthemum". Therefore, drinking chrysanthemum wine is also an important custom of solar terms and Double Ninth Festival.

"Mountain climbing" and "autumn outing" in cold season are also customs since ancient times. Today, people often go hiking in their spare time, but more for exercising, enjoying Qiu Guang and relaxing. Because of the development of communication and transportation, we don't walk and ride donkeys on the road like the ancients, so we don't often "miss our loved ones on holidays" like the ancients.
