The same is true for the Half Year Festival, which has the same meaning as celebrating the New Year. Therefore, the Half Year Festival is also called celebrating the Little New Year in some places. In order to achieve a good harvest, we will take some sacrifices to the heaven and earth to thank the harvest brought by God. Since summer grain has just been harvested in this season, eating new food has become a custom on this festival, and the newly harvested new food is made into food for sacrifice and consumption.
Since the first day of June is too close to June 6th , some regions confuse these two festivals together, and some will be festivals from the first day of June to the sixth day of June. In addition to the half-year festival, it is also called: Summer Festival, Daughter Day, and Fried Noodle Festival. From the first day of June to the sixth day of June, in many areas, we have to invite married daughters to go back to our parents' home. After we have a good time, we will meet our in-laws' home again. is commonly known as: June 6th, invite aunts, "June 6th, hang a hoe hook, invite aunts and younger aunts." Therefore, this festival is also called "Daughter's Day". This day not only has many traditional customs, but also the weather changes during the Half Year Festival, which has a great impact on the harvest in autumn.
Rural areas are very rich in weather proverbs for some solar terms and festivals. The weather changes at these time nodes will directly affect the growth of crops and the harvest of grain. As the first half-year festival on June 1, there are many common sayings among the people, most of which are related to the autumn grain harvest. Among them, the well-known ones are:
The rainy half-year festival, and the autumn grain will be harvested ; during the half-year festival. The weather is rainy and rainy, which means that this year will definitely be a good harvest year. According to folk experience, if rain can occur on the first day of June, it will take a long time to come. The rainfall will be quite high. The arrival of abundant rainfall has greatly replenished the soil moisture. Moreover, after the first day of June, the summer weather began to enter, and high temperatures began to gradually form. Frequent rainfall can also bring about a high humidity environment, a high temperature and high humidity summer. It is conducive to the rapid growth of crops.
June weather is unbearable, and the emergence of high temperatures has led to the enhancement of transpiration effect . There were also five days of rain-free drought, ten days of heavy drought, and one month of rain-free drought. Therefore, only abundant rainfall can alleviate the current drought. As the saying goes, it is hard to buy a drought in May, and a full meal will be eaten in June. Only when there is abundant rainfall in June can autumn grain be produced with high yields. Only when the grain has achieved a good harvest can you have no worries about food and clothing. Due to the excessive grain output, the dogs fed at home also have white flour buns to eat. As the saying goes: Sprinkle and throw them away on the first day of June, and the white flour buns will support the dogs.
Sprinkle one after another on June 1, and the white flour steamed buns will be suffocated to death. On June 1, the raindrops can be thrown and sprinkled, and the autumn grain will inevitably produce a good harvest. If there are too many foods to eat, even the dogs at home can eat steamed buns. Although this agricultural proverb has a certain exaggeration, it also indirectly shows that this is also a good year with good weather. Not only can food be produced well, but anything is also very smooth.It is a good year for all the harvest to make everything go well. As the half-year festival, June 1st is not only the beginning of the second half of the year, but also the beginning of rainfall. Therefore, the rainfall on this day indicates that it will appear: "The first day of June 1st is the flow, and the seventy-two will come to the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
"The flow on June 1st is the flow, and the seventy-two will come to the Mid-Autumn Festival"; The rain began to fall very heavily on June 1st, and the accumulated water has formed a stream on the road. The deep water accumulation also shows that the rainfall is very large. Such weather will bring continuous rainfall, and the rainfall will be very heavy throughout the year, and intermittent rainfall will continue until the Mid-Autumn Festival. The agricultural proverb says that it is seventy-two violent, which is also an imaginary number . It does not really bring 72 heavy rains. This is also an exaggerated technique commonly used in the common saying of agricultural proverbs. It indirectly shows that heavy rain occurs on the first day of June, so the rainfall will be particularly heavy from the entire summer to autumn. And it will last until the Mid-Autumn Festival for a long time. If there is a sunny day on the first day of June, it will appear: The face is broken on the first day of June, and the pot-skinned skin is dried in the fields.
On the first day of June, the face was broken, and the fields were dried up; On the first day of June, the weather was not rainy, but the sky was extremely hot. The hot sun has sunburned the face, so for a long time, there will be a long drought and rainless weather. Due to the continuous nourishment and irrigation of the farmland without rain, the ground is raised like the crust in the pot, causing cracks, which is also a symbol of particularly drought. Rural elderly people like to say: floods are one line, droughts are a large area, so sometimes droughts are more harmful than floods.
Especially in the past rural areas, many times it was a day to win. There is a serious lack of irrigation facilities in farmland. If you encounter a drought year, you will often be helpless, which will inevitably lead to a bad year. It is easy to see a reduction in production, and in severe cases, there will even be no harvest. This is also the result that everyone is most reluctant to see. Lack of food is more serious than anything else, so in general, for the first and half of June festival, according to the agricultural proverb, it is better to rain than to sunny. If there is rainfall on the first day of June, it will not only cause "spraying and throwing the dogs one by one on June, but also causing the white flour steamed bun to kill the dog." There is also a saying:
Sprinkle a little on the first day of June, and farmers can eat and make big bowls; It is rainy on the first day of June, and rain will continue throughout June and summer. With abundant rainfall and high temperatures, it is easy to achieve a bumper harvest in autumn. After the food has increased, the meal can finally be eaten open. You can no longer use the small bowl of rice that used to serve, and you can use a large bowl of rice to eat with confidence. This is also the direct impact of weather changes on crop growth.
