When is the early autumn of 2023?

Beginning of autumn, one of the four stands, indicates the beginning of autumn, the beginning of grain ripening and the arrival of harvest season. "Li Shu" said: "Dou is the beginning of autumn in the southwest, and Yin is the beginning of all things. According to the instructions of autumn, the grain is ripe. " "Shuo Wen Jie Zi": "Autumn, five grains are ripe." The change of the whole nature is a step-by-step process, and beginning of autumn is a turning point in which the Yang gradually closes, the Yin gradually grows, and the Yang gradually gets cloudy. As Guanzi said, "Autumn begins in Yin Qi, so everything gains."

Beginning of autumn marks the official start of the Qiu Meng season, which is the third solar term after the Great Summer and the Minor Summer. After beginning of autumn, the weather is still very hot. Traditional Chinese medicine calls the period from beginning of autumn to the autumnal equinox "long summer".
