social influence

Historically, the 24 solar terms have already gone abroad and gone to the world, affecting the Korean Peninsula, Japan and Southeast Asia. In some places, although the seasonal changes are not obvious, people there are still inheriting and carrying forward the 24 solar terms and their accompanying culture, which fully shows its cultural value. Twenty-four solar terms have been accepted by Korea, Japan and other countries as early as ancient times, and have been used in modern times in combination with their actual situation and national culture.

Twenty-four solar terms were introduced into Japan for more than 65,438+0,000 years, and some solar terms were included in Japan's legal wishes (festivals). In ancient Japan, the China lunar calendar was always used, following the timetable of "24 solar terms". With the change of almanac by the Central Plains court in China, Yuanjia calendar, Linde calendar, Dayan calendar, Wuji calendar and Xuan Ming calendar were used successively.

Later, Japan began to use calendars written by the Japanese, such as Xiangzhen Calendar and Tianbao Calendar, which were more suitable for local people. Japanese local festivals set according to the "24 solar terms" are called "miscellaneous festivals". Because the "twenty-four solar terms" were originally set according to the revolution of the earth, the date was set according to the solar terms according to the traditional algorithm.

For example, the "festival" in Japanese miscellaneous festivals is the day before the "beginning of spring" in China's "twenty-four solar terms"; "The other shore" is a week including the vernal equinox and the autumn equinox. In contemporary Japan, the vernal equinox is also designated as a public holiday.
