1, Exercise: Exercise at this time should be mainly moderate aerobic, and the light snow solar term is also the beginning of cooling. When doing exercise, you also need to do a little conditioning. In winter, the collaterals of human body belong to the kidney, and the kidney governs the bone marrow, which easily leads to bone and joint diseases and causes pain. Therefore, we should pay attention to conditioning and fumigation, and do a good job in the prevention and treatment of joint diseases.

2. Daily life: During the light snow solar term, the weather is also cold and gloomy, and people's emotions will be affected to some extent, which is easy to cause depression. Therefore, we must adjust our mentality, participate in outdoor activities and enhance our physical fitness. In addition, we should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, ensure adequate sleep, get more sunshine, warm and dredge meridians, and do a good job in cold prevention.

3. Diet: The winter diet should focus on foods that increase calories, strengthen the brain and promote blood circulation, and eat more warm foods, such as mutton, cashew nuts, yam porridge and other kidney-benefiting foods. In addition, eat more black food, such as black fungus and black beans. It is also necessary to extract high sugar and high fat intake. Therefore, in the daily diet in winter, add some fatty and sweet foods, such as eggs, milk, fish, beans and so on.

Xiaoxue is the twentieth of the twenty-four solar terms. Every year165438+1October 22 or 23, when the sun reaches 240 degrees of the yellow meridian, it is light snow, and "light snow" means that it begins to snow and the amount of snow is small.

Every year1October 22 or 23, 165438+, when the sun reaches 240 degrees of the longitude of the Yellow River, it is regarded as a light snow. "Light Snow" is a festival that reflects weather phenomena. Although the light snow solar term is called "light snow", it is not necessarily related to the light snow in the meteorological sense. Light snow solar terms reflect the climate characteristics, during which cold air moves frequently, but it doesn't necessarily snow. "Light snow does not plow, and heavy snow does not sail". After beginning of winter, the temperature dropped gradually, and people felt a little cold, so they added clothes to keep warm. The arrival of light snow means that the northern part of China has begun to enter the frozen season. "Twenty-four solar terms" said: "In the middle of June of 5438+00, it rained and was blown thin by the cold, so it condensed into snow. The words of the villain are not prosperous. " The ancient book "Qunfangpu" said: "A light snow will snow when it is cold, but the ground is not cold and the snow is not heavy." There is a saying in the Preface written by Wang Shizhen in Qing Dynasty: "A lonely light snow is idle, and a mottled new frost is added to the temples. "

Because of the cold weather, the form of precipitation changed from rain to snow, but at this time, because the ground is not very cold and the amount of snow is not large, it is called light snow. At this time, the yang is rising and the yin is falling, which leads to the impassability of heaven and earth, the imbalance of yin and yang, the loss of vitality of everything, the occlusion of heaven and earth and the turning into severe winter. The first snow will appear in the area north of the Yellow River, reminding people that it is time to keep out the cold and keep warm. During this period, the weather gradually became cold, and the average first snow period in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River was basically the same as the Light Snow Festival. Although it began to snow, the amount of snow was generally small, and it was frozen at night and turned around by day. If the cold air is strong and the warm and humid airflow is active, it may snow heavily. For example, on June 5438+0993165438+1October 15 ~ 20, there were heavy snowstorms in some winter wheat areas in the north.

The meaning of "light snow" in light snow solar terms is different from that in daily weather forecast. Xiaoxue solar term is a climate concept, which represents the climate characteristics during Xiaoxue solar term. The light snow in the weather forecast refers to the snow with less snowfall intensity. Snow is the product of cold weather. Meteorologically, when the horizontal visual distance is equal to or greater than1000m, the depth of snow on the ground is less than 3cm, and the snowfall in 24 hours is between 0.1-2.4mm, it is called "light snow".

Light snow climate

The characteristics of Xiaoxue solar term: "Xiaoxue is cold and it will snow, but the ground is not even cold and the snow is not big." In other words, due to the cold weather, the precipitation in the light snow season turned into snow, but the snow was not too heavy. The reason is that the whole earth has not completely cooled down at this time, and some rivers have not been completely frozen, so the snowfall is relatively small, and the name of the solar term is "light snow". Entering this solar term, the cold northwest wind frequently patronizes many parts of China, and the temperature drops.

The low temperature caused by snowfall can also freeze some hidden germs and pests to death, which can reduce the severity of pests and diseases in the coming year. More importantly, snow will keep the earth warm. The surrounding snow is more conducive to the decomposition of organic matter in the soil and makes the land more fertile.

In ancient China, light snow was divided into three stages: "When the rainbow disappeared; Second, the weather is rising and the atmosphere is falling; It was blocked three times and became winter. " The yang in the sky rises and the yin in the ground falls, which leads to the impassability between heaven and earth and the disharmony between yin and yang, so everything loses its vitality, and the heaven and earth are blocked and become a cold winter.

During the light snow solar term, a relatively stable meridional circulation has been established in East Asia, and low pressure or trough often appears in Siberia. When moving eastward, there will be a large-scale cold air going south, and there will be a large-scale gale and cooling weather in eastern China. Light snow solar term is a solar term with high frequency of cold wave and strong cold air activity. When strong cold air affects, it is often accompanied by the first snow in winter.

The temperature in the light snow stage is lower than that in winter. Speaking of light snow solar terms, it means that there will be snowfall in North China. Cold air gradually reduced the temperature below 0℃ in most parts of northern China.

The average first snow period in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River is basically the same as the light snow solar terms. Although it began to snow, the amount of snow was generally small, and it was frozen at night and turned around by day. If the cold air is strong and the warm and humid air flow is active, it may also snow heavily;

Winter begins in the northern part of the southern region. "Lotus has no shelter from the rain, and chrysanthemums still have branches in Ao Shuang" has always been the scene of early winter.

Xiaoxue custom

In order to cope with the cold weather, people used to store Chinese cabbage, pickle vegetables and make some bacon for winter consumption. If it happens that it snows on Xiaoxue Festival, some people will collect snow water, thinking that it can "reduce fire" and treat heat poison.

In northern China, people usually eat instant-boiled mutton in the light snow season. In the general light snow solar term, the weather is cold, dark, and there is little light, which is easy to cause or aggravate depression at this time. Warm tonic foods suitable for this season include mutton, beef and chicken. Foods suitable for tonifying kidney include cashew nuts, Euryale ferox, yam, chestnuts, ginkgo, walnuts and so on.

Pit ice,

Also known as knocking ice, taking ice and storing ice, it refers to breaking columnar ice and snow in snowy winter and storing it in an ice bank, which is used to cool off the heat and make cold drinks when hot summer comes.

In the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor would set officials in charge of icehouse in winter, and the official name was "Ling Ren". However, only among the court nobles.

In the Qing Dynasty, Lu Gu wrote in Jia Qinglu: "The natives buy cellar ice and the neighbors sell it, which is called cold water."

smoked meat

There is a folk custom of "storing wax in winter to keep out the cold". After a light snow, the temperature plummeted and the weather became dry, which was a good time to process bacon.

After the light snow festival, some farmers began to make sausages and bacon and enjoy food during the Spring Festival.

According to legend, as early as more than 2,000 years ago, Zhang Lu called King Hanning. When he came to Hongmiaotang in Hanzhong, he was defeated in the south, and the local people entertained him with bacon.

In the 26th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, Empress Dowager Cixi took refuge in xi 'an with Emperor Guangxu. Local officials in southern Shaanxi once presented bacon as a tribute to the emperor. After tasting the bacon, Cixi was full of praise.

There is also a folk custom of "curing with wax in winter and storing it for the winter". After a light snow, the temperature plummeted and the weather became dry, which was a good time to process bacon.

People use salt and spices such as pepper, wormwood, fennel, cinnamon and cloves. Marinate the meat in the jar. After 7 to 15 days, they hung it with palm leaves or bamboo ropes, dripped water, smoked it with cypress branches and sugarcane skins, and finally hung it and smoked it slowly with fireworks to make bacon.

Pickled cabbage

In the past, there was an indigenous way to store vegetables in winter. As the saying goes, "snow shovel cabbage, snow shovel spinach."

In winter, vegetables are mostly stored in soil, either in the cellar or buried in the soil, which is convenient for eating. When storing Chinese cabbage in deep ditch soil, stop watering about ten days before harvest, do a good job of antifreeze to facilitate storage, and try to harvest it in sunny days. After harvesting Chinese cabbage, the roots of Chinese cabbage are dried in the sun for 3-4 days, and then stored after the outer leaves of Chinese cabbage become soft. The depth of this ditch depends on the height of cabbage. When stored, the roots of cabbage are all downward, and they are discharged side by side in the ditch. When it is cold, cabbage leaves and corn stalks are covered to prevent freezing. However, when storing semi-ripe cabbage, put some water in the ditch and put soil at the same time. The depth of soil and water should be buried in the roots, and it will grow and mature after eating.

There are not so many fresh vegetables in winter, so the custom of pickling vegetables with light snow has a long history. People choose a variety of pickled vegetables. Besides some green vegetables, "Xuelihong" is also very popular.

Pickled pickles should be placed in a ventilated place and turned every one or two days. The whole process takes about a month. The prepared pickles are delicious, and some people will eat them with carrots and garlic leaves, which is also a delicious seasoning.

Light snow is more of a solar term representing the climate, and there is nothing special in custom. "The north will begin to store Chinese cabbage for the winter."
