What is the origin of the Grain Rain festival?

The 24 Solar Terms originated in the Yellow River Valley. As far back as the Spring and Autumn Period, the four solar terms of mid-spring, mid-summer, mid-autumn and mid-winter were set. Afterwards, it was continuously improved and perfected, and by the Qin and Han Dynasties, the 24 solar terms had been fully established. In 104 B.C., the Tai Chu Calendar, which was developed by Deng Ping and others, formalized the 24 solar terms in the calendar and clarified the astronomical positions of the 24 solar terms.

The twenty-four seasons are the specific seasons in the calendar that represent the changes in natural rhythms and establish the twelve months of the year. The year is divided into four periods, three months in spring, summer, fall and winter, and two periods per month, each with its own unique meaning. The 24 solar terms accurately reflect the changes in natural rhythms and play an extremely important role in people's daily lives. It is not only a system of seasons that guides agricultural production, but also a system of folklore that contains a wealth of folklore events. The 24 solar terms have a long cultural connotation and historical accumulation, and are an important part of the long history and culture of the Chinese nation.

The twenty-four solar terms were initially developed based on the rotation of the Big Dipper, the seven stars of the Big Dipper rotate around, and the handle of the Big Dipper rotates clockwise once for a cycle, which is called a year (Regent). The current twenty-four seasons is based on the position of the sun in the return of the ecliptic to develop, that is, the sun's annual movement track is divided into 24 equal parts, every 15?for 1 equal part, every 1 equal part for a festival, starting in the spring, finally the big cold.
