Related Background:

The first month of the Lunar Calendar is known as the first month according to custom. The eleventh and twelfth months of the lunar calendar are called the winter and waxing months, respectively, but the winter month is seldom used anymore. The idiom for cold weather, "寒冬腊月" is derived from this, literally meaning that October, November and December are the coldest months of the year.

Each month of the lunar calendar has a different nickname. Because of its close connection to agricultural production, it is almost always represented by a plant from February to September.

As in the February festival of hibernation, hibernation means hiding. Hibernation refers to the first stirring of spring thunder, waking up animals hibernating in the earth. The sun passes three hundred and forty-five degrees of the yellow meridian for hibernation. The weather is warming up, and the dormant insects are waking up one after another. The season has entered mid-spring, with peach blossoms and pear blossoms, warblers chirping and birds flying high. Spring thunder is a common natural phenomenon in this season.
