Reading guide: Ambush is single, and cotton is covered at night; Ambush is a double, Voli sauna", where is this year's ambush?
Time is like an arrow, time flies really fast, unconsciously to the dog days of the year, today is the eighth day of the sixth lunar month of the Jiachen year, July 13th, the eighth day of the small summer solar term, the day after tomorrow July 15th will be officially ambushed, ambush, refers to the meaning of entering the "three dogs", the dog days originated in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Qin State "Historical Records, Qin Ji VI" Zhongyun: "Qin Degong two years (676 BC) at the beginning of the year." Tang man Zhang Shoujie said: "The festival of the dog days in June, Qin Degong did it, so the clouds are in ambush, and those who are in wait are hiding to avoid the summer."
So how does the time of the year come out? We know that in ancient times, people generally used the "Ganzhi Chronological Method" to record the date, and they specifically used 10 heavenly stems (A, B, C, D, Hu, Already, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui) and 12 earthly branches (Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Shu, Hai) paired with each other into 60 different names to record the day.
Furthermore, the ancient calendar stipulates that "the summer solstice is three Geng several head volts", which is a folk saying handed down by the ancestors through the ages, which is also the basis for ancient people to determine the ambush, which means that the third Geng day after the summer solstice is the beginning of the first volt of the year. According to the old rules above, we can deduce that this year's dog days in 2024 will be an extended version, with a total of 40 days, starting from July 15, 2024 and ending on August 23, 2024.
It seems that this year's dog days are unfortunately 40 days "extended version", the hot time will be longer, after entering the dog days, because the surface humidity becomes larger, the daily absorption of more heat, less heat emitted, the heat of the surface layer accumulates, so day by day hotter, people often say "hot in the dog days, cold in the dog days", it also means that into the dog days, the hot summer will officially kick off.
However, the dog days of each year are different, and one dog day will be very hot, and the heat is really overwhelming! And one year when the dog days are not too hot, and sometimes there is a feeling of cold, so is it hot on dog days this year? I remember when I was a child, the old people who had experience in the countryside often said, "When you are in ambush, you are covered with cotton at night, and when you are in ambush, you are in a sauna"; So how do we understand this old saying? Let's take a look at what our ancestors said.
Agricultural proverb: "Ambush every single, cover cotton at night, ambush every double, Voli sauna."
The whole meaning of this saying is that if the time of ambush falls on a single day in the lunar month, it indicates that the following dog days will be cooler and less hot. So that people have to cover themselves with quilts when they sleep at night, indicating that the dog days of the year are cooler.
On the contrary, if the time of the ambush falls on the two days of the lunar month, then the weather in the following dog days will be sunny and cloudless, and the weather will be very hot, indicating that the dog days of this year will be ridiculously hot!
Specifically
In the previous sentence, "in the ambush and in the order, cover the cotton at night", in which the "ambush" refers to the first day of the dog days, "every order" refers to the single day in the lunar month, and "cover the cotton at night" is to set off the technique, implying that the weather is cooler;
In addition, the singular and even numbers mentioned in this sentence have two understandings among the people:
a, one is to understand the odd and even numbers as the odd and even numbers of specific days in the lunar month, such as the ambush in the beginning of the sixth month of the lunar calendar is an odd number, on the contrary, if the ambush is in the second day of the sixth month of the double number.
b, one is to understand the odd and even numbers as the odd and even numbers of the lunar month, such as the small summer festival in June is an even number, in July is a singular number.
However, most folk people believe that the incubation time is generally in the sixth month of the lunar calendar every year, and there is no odd or even number of months, so it is more appropriate to understand the odd and even numbers of specific days in the month.
The latter sentence "Into the ambush is double, Voli sauna." The "every double" here refers to the double days in the lunar month, and the ancestors of the "Fuli Sauna" also used the technique of foiling, indicating that the dog days of this year are very hot. The word "sauna" here refers to the very hot weather.
So where is the time of incubation this year? Is it hot on dog days?
From the 2024 lunar calendar, it is known that this year's ambush time happens to be on the tenth day of the sixth lunar month, that is, on the double day of the lunar month, so this year's ambush is a double, according to the ancestors said "into the ambush and a shuang, Fuli sauna" The meaning of this year's dog days will be very hot.
At the end of the day, the proverb handed down from our ancestors is only an empirical forecasting method, and it does not predict future weather trends with complete accuracy. The actual weather is unpredictable, and we have to wait and see whether it is hot or not this year.
