Why didn't spring start in 2019? Because this year's spring start is the lunar calendar, December 30, 2018, so it seems that there is no spring start, but in fact there is no & hellip; & hellip. Since the beginning of spring coincides with new year's Eve, it is said that there is no beginning of spring this year, which is the so-called year of widows. What is the origin of the year of widows?
The year 2000, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2019 of the lunar calendar are all widows' years.
The reason why there is no spring at both ends in 2019 is actually due to the two calendars of yin and Yang in China.
The 24 solar terms are based on the solar calendar, that is, the cycle of the earth's rotation around the sun. The 24 solar terms are the calendars customized in ancient China for agricultural guidance. They divide the 360 degrees of the earth's rotation in a return year into 24 equal points, each corresponding to a solar term. Although they are customized in ancient China, they are basically consistent with the solar calendar.
And we will calculate according to the lunar calendar when we celebrate the new year. In fact, the lunar calendar is determined according to the law of the change of the moon's profit and loss. The time of the moon missing once is one month, about 29 and a half days, so the lunar calendar has 30 days for the first month, 29 days for the second month, and 354 days for the 12th month of the year. This is about 11 days different from the 365 days of the solar calendar, so there will be a leap month every three years to supplement The difference between the solar calendar and the lunar calendar is 11 days.
After the explanation of the lunar calendar and the Gregorian calendar, it's easy to explain that there is no spring at both ends. Because every year's spring is relatively fixed on the Gregorian calendar, between February 3 and 5 every year, but because the lunar calendar has leap months every three years, the spring appears in the lunar calendar at different times, so sometimes the spring appears before the Spring Festival, sometimes after the Spring Festival, such as Fruit spring appears in the first month of the previous year, then the next spring will appear in the first month, which will result in a year without spring.
Almost every four years, there will be a spring free year. For example, the last spring free year appeared in 2016, and 2019 is also a spring free year.
The origin of the year of widowhood:
The year of widows, the so-called "dumb year", also known as "blind spring" and "widow year", means that there is no "spring start" in the whole year of the lunar calendar. Spring start appears at the end of the last December and the beginning of the next January, such as 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2010. There is no "spring start" in a year, that is, there is no sunshine coming. There is no Yang, there is no Yin. In man, without Yang, there is no match for men, and naturally widows. The so-called year of widows comes from here.
Is it true that widows fall cold in spring
In fact, this is the subjective Association of the ancients, and there is no scientific basis at all. Therefore, the couples who plan to get married in 19 years do not have to be involved. We take science as the standard now, if there is no scientific basis, everything is nonsense. Although the year of widows is not suitable for marriage, it is a pure fiction and the subjective imagination of the farmers, but there is a certain basis for this "late spring cold".
"Cold in late spring" refers to the sudden drop in temperature when spring comes, which will have a certain impact on crops. This "late spring cold" is actually the result of long-term observation by the ancients, but did you find it? Actually, it happens every year, but the degree of cold is different. But it's hard to say whether there will be 'cold in the late spring' this year. Please look forward to it. Just remember to wear more clothes.
In fact, the weather has always been unpredictable. What we humans can do is to take preventive measures. If the "cold in the late spring" really comes, we must do a good job of "covering in the spring". Do not take off our autumn pants early. We should also take protective measures for crops in advance to avoid being unprepared and causing certain losses.
