[二十四節氣]俗諺:大寒到頂點，日後漸漸暖。告訴我們新春的腳步悄然臨近 #節氣 #大寒 #諺語

Great Cold comes after Winter Solstice and before Beginning of Spring marking the final solar term in the traditional Chinese calendar's 24 solar terms Old sayings warn that if the Great Cold isn't cold people and livestock will be unsettled when it should be cold but isn't the natural order falters pests survive and both humans and animals become vulnerable to disasters That is precisely why amidst biting winds people come to truly respect the seasonal rhythms and harmonize with the changing heavens as the old saying goes "When Great Cold reaches its peak warmth gradually returns thereafter " The coldest part of the year draws to a close yang energy quietly rises beneath the surface the footsteps of the New Year draw near and what lies ahead will be days growing steadily warmer The farmer gazes at the snow-covered fields feeling a quiet sense of peace and reassurance for the old saying goes: a heavy snow at Great Cold means three white coverings and with that farmers will have enough to eat and wear If three auspicious snowfalls occur during the Great Cold period they can kill pests and when spring arrives melt into nourishing spring water that enriches the soil laying the foundation for a bountiful harvest next year Farmers can live without worry about food and clothing Another proverb warns Beware of southerly winds on the Great Cold day Rain on that day is especially to be avoided If southerly winds blow or rain falls during the Great Cold Often seen as a sign of climatic anomaly it suggests unstable weather next year potentially affecting crop growth The twelfth month draws near and people are busy preparing for the Lunar New Year festivities Great Cold marks the midpoint of winter and also foreshadows the coming of spring Reaching the coldest point of the year the warmth of spring is just around the corner
