What are the folk proverbs about the winter solstice solar term?

1. The winter solstice is warm and the cold is until mid-March; the winter solstice is cold and the spring is warm early. Interpretation: If the temperature is still warm on the winter solstice, winter will continue to be cold until mid-March of next year; if the temperature is cold on the winter solstice, the next spring will warm up early.

2. When the winter solstice is dark, it will be sparse during the New Year; when it is sparse during the winter solstice, it will be dark during the New Year. (Black, refers to rain)? Interpretation: Black here refers to rainy days, and sparse refers to sunny days, so the meaning of this sentence is that if the winter solstice is a rainy day, then it will be sunny during the Chinese New Year. If it is sunny on the winter solstice, it may be cloudy and rainy during the Chinese New Year.

3. Winter is at the beginning, so you sell your quilt to buy cattle. Winter is at the end, and you freeze to death.

What is needed most is old cattle that can plow the land. If a family has no money to buy cattle, they really have to exchange quilts for money. Of course, this It is also an exaggeration.

What it means is that if the day of Beginning of Winter falls in the late winter month, and the weather is still very cold after the beginning of spring, let alone selling quilts and buying cattle, people will have to wrap themselves in thick cotton clothes to protect themselves from the cold. Even ghosts can freeze to death. Sometimes it is very accurate. The winter solstice falls in the late winter month, and there will be heavy snowfall.
