The origin of the Millennium name

The almanac says that "the bucket refers to the dew, the yin is getting heavier, and the mausoleum is the dew, hence the name". Entering the "White Dew", the most obvious feeling is that the temperature difference between day and night is large, and it will feel a little cold at night. Although the summer heat may not leave at once, the sultry feeling will gradually fade away, adding a coolness in autumn sooner or later.

Meteorology shows that in the Millennium season, the weather is getting colder and the sun is still hot during the day. The temperature dropped rapidly after the sun went down. At night, the water vapor in the air condenses into tiny water droplets, which are very densely attached to the green stems and leaves or petals of flowers and trees. It is white, especially after being exposed to the morning sun, it looks more crystal clear, white and flawless, and it is really attractive, so it has won the reputation of "White Dew".
