What does five nine six nine mean?

Moral: In 5969, the earth gradually rejuvenated, willows sprouted, the weather changed from cold to warm, and willows began to sprout in some places.

"5969" comes from nine songs. It refers to the fifth and sixth "nine days" from winter to the future, that is, the 37th to 54th days from winter to the future. There is a saying "Jiujiu" in the China lunar calendar, which is used to calculate the seasons.

The calculation method is from the solstice of winter (counting from the solstice of winter, which means the beginning of cold), every nine days are called a nine, the first nine days are called a nine, the second nine days are called a 29, and so on until the ninth nine days, when the number reaches 998 1 day. At this time, winter has passed and spring has arrived.

Extended data:

Counting to nine is one of the popular customs in China. Counting nine means counting from the date of winter to Sunday (also called counting from winter to Sunday), counting nine every nine days, and so on. As the saying goes, "it's hot in three days, cold in four or nine days", and the coldest period in a year is "three or nine days". Count to nine until the eighty-first day, when the peach blossoms open at nine o'clock. At this point, the cold has gone and the weather is getting warmer.

Due to the vast territory of China, the climate varies greatly from place to place. Only parts of China, not all parts of the country, correspond to the winter solstice "9981, nine peach blossoms, deep spring and warm days", and some cold areas have no breath of spring.
