The sixth day of the sixth lunar month, it is called Tianzhao Festival, Aunt Festival, Xiaobailong Talking Mother Festival, etc., and there are also many traditional folk customs. For growers, they are more concerned about whether there will be rain on the sixth day of June. There are some proverbs circulating among the people about whether it is rainy or sunny.
So is it better to rain or sunny on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month? The author talks about this matter through detailed proverbs, and you will have the answer after reading it.
- "June 6th, cows and sheep are as expensive as gold"
This proverb explains literally. If the sixth day of June is rainy, then the price of cows and sheep that year is relatively expensive, just like gold. Through metaphor, it is said that cattle and sheep are expensive, but from another perspective, the number of cattle and sheep is small.
used to feed cattle and sheep, which is different from now. Now it is mainly feed, but used to rely mainly on grass. If it rains on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, it means that there will be more rainfall in the future and the weeds cannot grow normally, resulting in fewer weeds in the wild and no grass can be cut, so the cattle and sheep will have no food, so the price is relatively expensive.
From another perspective, weeds cannot grow normally due to excessive rainfall, so the same is true for crops in the fields. The previous drainage measures were not perfect. If the crops were soaked in water for a long time, the yield could be imagined. Therefore, from this proverb alone, rainy days on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month are bad.
- "Dry dragon clothes on June 6, rain blows dragon clothes but not collect rice"
This proverb literally means that the sixth day of the sixth lunar month is the time to dry clothes (the dragon clothes generally refer to everyone's clothes). If there is rainy weather, the crops that year may not be harvested (rice not only refers to rice, but also includes other grains).
The sixth day of June is also called " Washing and Suning Festival ". On this day, people will take out their clothes to dry. If it is raining, according to folk sayings, it is a bad phenomenon. This shows that there is a lot of rainfall in the future and waterlogging may occur in the fields. After the crops are soaked for too long, the roots cannot breathe normally, and the plants gradually wither until they die, and the phenomenon of "no rice harvesting" occurs. Just from the meaning expressed in this proverb, it is the same as the first sentence, and it is also a bad situation when it rains on the sixth day of the lunar calendar.
- "The sixth day of the sixth month is sunny, and the rice is lowered"
This proverb mainly refers to the perspective of agricultural planting. If the sixth day of the sixth month is sunny, then the rice will lower its head, which means that the rice ears are heavier, because it is heavy, and it also reflects that there are many ears, large grains, and a high weight of thousands of grains, which is a symbol of harvest.
Around the sixth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, it is the ear-pregnancy period of rice in many places. This is the critical period for determining the high yield of rice. During this period, sunny days are conducive to rice ear-pregnancy, laying a good foundation for improving fruiting rate and grain weight. If it is a rainy day, it will not only affect the normal ear growth of rice, but also increase the chance of diseases and pests in humid and hot environments. Therefore, in terms of rice growth, the sixth day of June is a sunny day, which is conducive to good harvests.
Through the above agricultural proverbs, you can see the answer. It is better to be sunny than rain on the sixth day of the lunar calendar. Especially from the perspective of agricultural planting, sunny days are conducive to the growth of crops. If it is a rainy day, it indicates that there is more rainfall in the future. The Door and the Door and the Door and the Door are about to usher in. As the saying goes, "The Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door and the Door are not conducive to the growth of crops.
. From folk legends, the sixth day of June is the "Santhem Festival", "Sherding Festival", "Shanghai Festival", "Shanghai Festival", etc. Since it is a festival, there will be many customs activities. In terms of customs activities, people do not want to encounter rainy days, and they will think it is a bad meaning. Therefore, from many aspects, it is better to be sunny than rain on the sixth day of June.
Check the Central Meteorological Observatory weather forecast. There are many rainfall areas on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month this year (July 4th of the Gregorian calendar). There will be heavy to torrential rain in some areas such as Guangdong, eastern Guangxi, central and eastern Hunan, western and southern Jiangxi, central Hubei, eastern Henan, and other places. Among them, there will be heavy torrential rain in some areas such as northern Guangdong (affected by typhoon ).
If according to the above proverb, it is better to be sunny on the sixth day of June than rain, then there will be rainfall in most parts of the country. Are these areas not good? The answer is obviously no. At this time of year, the typhoons you may encounter are different, the trends are different, and the rainfall will also vary. In ancient times, the formation or trend of typhoons could not be predicted, and the weather conditions could not be accurately judged.
Another point is that proverbs may be regional and the meaning expressed may only apply to certain regions, not to the country. Taking the situation in the north and south this year, there is a lot of rain in the south recently, so there is definitely no hope for rainfall. Many places in the north are in a drought. I hope to alleviate the drought in the fields through rainfall, and I hope there will be rainfall. This is the regional difference.
Therefore, the issue of good rainfall or sunny days on the sixth lunar month has a lot to do with regionality. As for the proverbs circulating among the people, you can understand the meaning and do not need to over-interpret it.
Today is the sixth day of June. It’s rainy day here, where are you?
