【24 Solar Terms】Time：2023-05-06 Source：本站 Views：6814
The Beginning of Summer falls on May 5 or 6. Together with the Beginning of Spring, the Beginning of Autumn, and the Beginning of Winter, these four solar terms, as their names imply, mark the beginning of each season. After the Beginning of Summer, trees exuberantly put out leaves, crops grow fast, and farmers are very busy. After this day, dawn comes earlier and people go to bed later and wake up earlier. So it's better for them to take an afternoon nap after lunch to catch up on sleep. Exercise is also advisable to maintain energy. Some places in China have a tradition of weighing people on this day. They believe that if you are weighed on this day you will not lose your appetite over the hot summer.
