Today is July 2 (the 27th day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar), and there are still 4 days left before the summer heat. The old man said: This year is "a small summer and a plum", 4 things to avoid, what are the things?
Interpretation of Xiaoxia and Izumei
Xiaoxia is the eleventh solar term of the 24 solar terms, the end of the noon moon of the Ganzhi calendar and the beginning of the first month. Dou Zhi Xin, the sun reaches the yellow longitude of 105 degrees, and the festival is held on July 6-8 of the Gregorian calendar every year.
There is a saying among the folk that "small heat and big heat, steaming and boiling". "Summer" means hot, and Xiaoxia means "little heat", and although it has not yet reached the peak of heat, we have already felt the power of midsummer.
The day at the end of the rainy season is called "Izume". Out of the plum is also known as "out of mold", "broken plum", "Shenshu Sutra" said: after the summer heat, the first day before the sunrise.
This year is "Little Summer Meets Plum"
This year's Xiaoxiao solar term occurs around 22:20 on July 6, 2024.
And this year's July 6 is the Xinwei day of the Xinwei month, which is precisely the first day after the summer heat.
Therefore, this year's plum season is also on July 6.
The day of this year's small summer festival coincides with the end of the rainy season.
"Xiaoxia meets plum" is still on the first day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, which is really a coincidence and rare.
There are many proverbs that emphasize the relationship between the summer season and the plum blossom.
"The summer thunders, and the rainy season turns yellow."
"Xiaoxia thundered, and I wanted to make seventy-two wild yellow plums."
"Xiao Xia Lei, Huang Mei Hui; Pour Huangmei, eighteen days".
"Xiaoxia thundered, reversed to make heavy plums".
If it is rainy and rainy, the plum season will have to wait for a while, and this year it happens that the plum and the summer are on the same day, that is to say, if it rains on the day of the summer heat, the rainy season has not yet ended, and the plum season will be delayed.
The signs of Xiaoxia and Izumei are about to enter the ambush.
The old man said: This year is "a small summer meets a plum, and it is wet to the end", what does it mean?
"When the summer season meets the plum, it is stuffy and wet to the end", which is said: if the plum blossom and the small summer festival are on the same day, there will be more rain in the next three dogs, and it will be stuffy and hot. In this hot and humid climate, people will feel very uncomfortable, so the old man said: There are four things to avoid, which are the four things?
1. Don't wear jewelry
This year, when Xiaoxia meets Mei, what to avoid is wearing jewelry.
After a small summer, it is hot for three minutes a day. The arrival of the summer solar term means that the dog days are approaching, and the rain may not be reduced immediately. In this way, the humid and muggy weather will follow.
As the old saying goes: "Don't wear jade in winter, don't wear gold in summer". Although jewelry can play a decorative role, but also reflect people's taste and identity, but it has to be said that after the summer, people are easy to sweat, metal jewelry is easy to cause skin discomfort, and some jewelry, such as pearl jewelry, will also be discolored or tarnished due to sweat stains.
2. Warm up and don't go into a cold room
This year's plum season coincides with the summer solar term, in addition to the temperature will increase day by day, the air humidity will also increase, which makes people feel unbearable. At this time, we also have to avoid one thing, which is to warm up and go into a cold room.
The elderly often warn us not to enter the cooler air-conditioned room immediately when we are sweating, which will cause the pores to suddenly occlude and cause physical discomfort.
In the same way, when we feel hot, avoid swimming in cooler water or bathing in cool water, because there are many examples of serious consequences caused by such mistakes.
3. Don't sit on wood
This year is "a small summer meets a plum", and this situation is still very special. We also need to avoid sitting directly on the wood.
I often hear the older generation say that "you don't sit on a tree in summer and don't sit on a stone in winter", which is the wisdom of the ancestors' life. It reminds people to choose the right seat in different seasons to avoid adverse effects on the body.
Why don't you sit on a wooden seat in the summer? Throughout the rainy season, it is rainy and rainy, and the wooden chairs and benches in the open air have a high water content after being blown by the wind and rain. The solar term is coming, the weather will become hotter and hotter, the sun is shining, the water vapor evaporates, and the water vapor inside the wooden chair is emitted, even if it looks dry on the surface, but the moisture is still very large.
Fourth, do not bask in the sun
As the rainy season is coming to an end and the midsummer season is about to kick off, the sun is strong during the summer season, so it is recommended to avoid prolonged exposure.
When you go out, you should wear a sunhat or parasol to avoid direct sunlight. In addition to your skin, you should also be reminded that in addition to your skin, your hair and eyes should not be exposed to direct sunlight, which is a detail that we often overlook.
Summary: The old man said that this year is "a small summer and a plum", and there are 4 things to avoid, which are: not wearing jewelry, warming up and not entering a cold room, not sitting on a wood, and not basking in the sun, have you remembered?
About the "small summer and out of the plum" related knowledge, I will first share with you here, the summer is coming, and because this year's summer and out of the plum on the same day, so everyone should pay special attention, the weather will become hotter and hotter with the arrival of the summer and out of the plum, we will also usher in the dog days, here I sincerely wish you all good weather!
