The Twenty-four Solar Terms<\/p>\n

In the ancient times, there was a general name for a group of seasons, i.e. the Twenty-four Solar Terms from the Beginning of Spring to Great Cold. It shows the relatio<\/em>nship between universe, season, climate and agriculture, which is unique creation by Chinese ancestors. To date, it has functio<\/em>ned as a complete set of weather calendar to guide the agricultural production in China.<\/p>\n

The Twenty-four Solar Terms come to being and develop in close relatio<\/em>nship with Chinese agricultural production. At the initial stage of agricultural development, people began to explore the seaso<\/em>nal rule in the agricultural production to meet the needs in seeding, harvesting and other activities. Gradually, there formed the co<\/em>ncept of "Seed in Spring, Grow in Summer, Harvest in Autumn and Store in Winter". During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), the agricultural production was highly subject to the seaso<\/em>nal changes with the invention of iron tools, thus forming the co<\/em>ncept of Solar Term. At that time, the method of tugui was used to measure the shadow of the sun for determining the solar terms. Initially, there were o<\/em>nly the Summer Solstice and the Winter Solstice. Later added were the Spring Equinox, the Autumnal Equinox, the Beginning of Spring, the Beginning of Summer, the Beginning of Autumn and the Beginning of Winter.<\/p>\n

Astronomically, the Twenty-four Solar Terms are defined according to the position of the sun on the ecliptic. 0 degree of celestial lo<\/em>ngitude is the Spring Equinox and the every solar term matches the passage 15 degrees. As a result, there come Twenty-four Solar Terms as it passes by 360 degrees. Later, the Twenty-four Solar Terms were introduced into North Korea, Japan and other neighboring countries. During the Edo Period (1603-1867), Japan began to adopt the Twenty-four Solar Terms, which have been used till now.<\/p>\n
