Lichun?(Beginning of Spring)
Lichun - literally means the beginning of the spring -?is the 1st solar term.
立春為二十四節(jié)氣中的第一個節(jié)氣,其字面意思是春天伊始。
解說
Lichun begins when the Sun reaches the celestial longitude of 315° and ends when it reaches the longitude of 330°. It more often refers in particular to the day when the Sun is exactly at the celestial longitude of 315°. In the Gregorian calendar, it usually begins around February 4 and ends around February 18.
立春開始時太陽到達黃經(jīng)315°,立春結束時太陽到達黃經(jīng)330°。立春更多地是指太陽處在黃經(jīng)315°的那天。在格里高利歷里,立春通常在2月4日左右開始,2月18日左右結束。
Each solar term can be divided into 3 pentads. They are first pentad, second pentad and last pentad. Pentads in Lichun include: First pentad - Dōng Fēng Jiě Dòng (東風解凍) which literally means east wind thaw. Lü Shi Chun Qiu said that the east is associated with wood, and wood generates fire, so the air is warm and causes ice to thaw. Second pentad - zhé?chóng?shǐ?zhèn(蟄蟲始振) which means literally hibernating insects awaken. Last pentad - yú shàng bīng(魚上冰) which?literally means fish swim upward near ice.
每一個節(jié)氣可以分為三個候,分別是一候、二候和三候。立春的三候分別為:一候東風解凍,說的是東風送暖,大地解凍。呂氏春秋記載,東方屬木,木能生火,因此氣溫變暖,冰凍融化。二候蜇蟲始振,意為蟄居的蟲類慢慢蘇醒。三候為魚上冰,意為魚在河里的浮冰附近游。
習俗
The tradition of eating special snacks and dinners on the day is called "yaochun," which literally means "biting the spring." Other favorite dishes on the day include "zhouzi," braised?pork?joints and "chunjuan," fried rolls stuffed with?leek?and eggs.
立春要吃一些特殊的小吃,意為“咬春”。其他的一些食物還有肘子(豬蹄)和春卷(韭蔥和雞蛋卷)。
