What does the solstice mean in winter?
I believe many friends have learned the nursery rhyme "Autumn is cold and frost falls, winter is snowy and winter is chilly" when they were young. This year's winter solstice will come on the 22nd. It is estimated that the whole country is so cold that quilts are needed now, and friends with heating in the north can also start to laugh at southerners. Then, when the winter solstice comes, what does "winter solstice and sunny life" mean? Let's take a look at this issue of "Old Yellow Calendar" with Bian Xiao.

Now, many young people may not know much about the phrase "the sun shines on the solstice in winter", but the older generation in rural areas are still familiar with it. It means that from the solstice of winter, the spirit of the sun begins to pick up slowly, which is a "good luck day". So in this season, pay attention to health and make up in time, which will not only reduce illness throughout the winter, but also help some diseases accumulated before. From winter to the sun, the sun shines directly on the Tropic of Capricorn (also known as the winter solstice daily line), and the sun is most inclined to the northern hemisphere, which has the shortest day and the longest night. After the winter solstice, the sun slowly moved to the Tropic of Cancer, and Taiwan Province Province also approached spring from winter. The days in the northern hemisphere gradually became longer and the nights became shorter. Therefore, in ancient times, there was a saying that "winter solstice is sunset", which means that the spirit of the sun gradually picks up from winter solstice. In fact, it is reasonable that beginning of winter had the custom of making up for winter in ancient times. On the one hand, we need to supplement some high-protein and high-fat foods in winter to increase our body's ability to keep out the cold, thus improving our body's disease resistance. On the other hand, there was no farm work in winter, and it was hard for half a year. It's time to cook something delicious to reward the whole family for a year's hard work and eat well. So what are the customs of the solstice in winter in your hometown?
