What does seven-star weather mean?

Seven-Star Meteorology is a traditional culture in China with a long history. It is a weather forecast system based on the position and running state of seven astronomical stars. Seven-star meteorology, also known as astrology, is the basis of ancient astronomy and meteorology in China, and is widely used in agricultural production and weather forecast. With its unique observation and calculation methods, Qixing Meteorology has been magically predicting the weather changes in China for thousands of years.

Seven-star meteorology is not only a traditional culture, but also a practical technology. Seven-star meteorology can predict the relative positions of the sun, the moon and the planets by observing and calculating the running states of seven astronomical stars, and then predict the weather conditions such as high temperature, low temperature and rainfall in this area. The accuracy of seven-star weather forecast is much higher than that of ordinary weather forecast, and it is considered as the earliest weather forecast technology in ancient China.

In recent years, with the development of astronomy and meteorology, the position of Seven-Star Meteorology has been gradually replaced, but it is still regarded as an important part of China weather culture. At present, many literary works, TV plays and movies all use the meteorological elements of the Seven Stars, which enriches the connotation of China culture. The study and inheritance of Seven Stars meteorology not only helps us to better understand the ancient people's understanding and control of the natural environment in China, but also makes us feel the profoundness of China's traditional culture.
