What are the characteristics of cold dew climate?

Cold dew is the17th solar term in the twenty-four solar terms, which is the end of the full moon in the dry calendar and the beginning of the full moon. The time point is when the sun reaches the longitude 195 (within Virgo) on the 8th or 9th of October every year in the Gregorian calendar.

Cold dew means that the temperature is lower than that of the white dew, and the dew on the ground is colder and will soon condense into frost. In the cold dew season, Nanling and the vast area to the north have entered autumn, and the northeast and northwest regions have entered or are about to enter winter.

With the arrival of cold dew, the climate turns from hot to cold, and everything is born with cold and gradually falls. This is the season of alternating hot and cold. In nature, the qi of yin and yang begins to change, the yang is gradually declining, and the yin is gradually born. Our physiological activities should also adapt to the changes in nature to ensure the physiological (yin and yang) balance in the body. At this time, the diet should be based on nourishing yin and moistening dryness, and moist and juicy fruits are the first choice for health preservation.
