The 24 Solar Terms occupy an important place in traditional Chinese culture. In ancient China, sundials were used to measure the sun's rays, and the longest sun shadow of the year was designated as the "solar solstice" (also known as the long solstice, long solstice, winter solstice), while the shortest sun shadow was the "short solstice" (also known as the short solstice, summer solstice). In the spring and fall seasons, each day has the same length of day and night, so it is designated as the "spring equinox" and "autumn equinox". During the Shang Dynasty, there were only four solar terms, but during the Zhou Dynasty there were eight, and during the Qin and Han Dynasties, the 24 solar terms were fully established. In 104 B.C., Deng Ping and others formulated the "Taichu Calendar", which formally set the 24 solar terms on the calendar and clarified the astronomical positions of the 24 solar terms. The names of the twenty-four solar terms were first mentioned in the Huainanzi - Tianwenxun (淮南子-天文训).
