In the first month, the camellia is full of pots.

Peony is fragrant in April.

Pomegranates in May are as red as fire.

The pool is full of lotus flowers in June.

Jasmine is like snow in July,

Osmanthus fragrans is fragrant in August.

In September, chrysanthemums are in various shapes.

Jiujiu, also known as Winter Jiujiu, is a folk solar term in China. The number nine begins at the end of winter in 65438+February of Gregorian calendar and ends on Everyone's Day. There is no exact information about when the custom of counting nine originated. However, it was popular at least in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

"Liang Chao Shu Jing Chu Chun Qiu" records: "The winter solstice is 998 1 day, which is the end of cold." Count nine cold days, that is, count nine every nine days from the winter solstice to the eighty-first day, and the weather will warm up. In fact, it is "99-99, plowing cattle everywhere"-90 days, which is 9 days.

In the traditional culture of China, nine is the extreme number, which is the largest, largest and longest concept. Nine nines is eighty-one, which is the "maximum" number. People in ancient China believed that after the solstice on September 8 1 day, spring must have arrived.
