Customs of entering summer

1, Summer Welcome Ceremony

The word "summer" in "long summer" means "big", which means that the plants sown in spring have grown upright. At a deeper level, the 24 solar terms reflect the change of "Qi" in the four seasons, and the change of Qi is related to the change of natural rhythm. In the long summer, the yang is getting longer and longer, and everything grows sturdily with the rise of the yang. In ancient times, people attached great importance to the customs and habits of long summer. On this day of long summer, ancient people held ceremonies to welcome summer.

The long summer is the peak season for eggs. At noon in the long summer, boiled eggs are soaked in cold water for a few minutes, painted with patterns, then put on silk bags and hung around the children's necks to compete with each other, which is called fighting eggs.
