Spring is coming
A solar term is 15 days. The beginning of spring is February 4th. It's over tomorrow. What a coincidence. The Winter Olympics will end tomorrow. Was this a coincidence or an intentional arrangement?
In ancient times, the way the verse was actually written was robbery. In other words, a solar term is a small calamity.
Therefore, there are often some old people who pass away in solar terms such as the beginning of winter, the winter solstice, the big cold, and the small cold. It's because the body is weak and can't survive the cold weather and solar terms.
In addition, there are many folk proverbs that judge the next harvest and the future climate by the climate of the solar term.
For example, if there is no frost, there will be a famine in the coming year. It means that the frost must be frosted on the day of frost.
The north wind blows in the miscanthus seed, and the roots of the green seedlings are broken by drought, which means that if the north wind blows in the solar term of the miscanthus seeds, there will be a drought and little rain in the following days, and the green seedlings will lack water.
In fact, the earth, as a celestial body, orbits around the sun and rotates at the same time, and she must have a certain regularity. And our ancestors are really wise, and they left us these extraordinary wisdom early on, and passed on this knowledge for future generations to live a better life.
In the past, when I listened to the solar terms, I always felt that it was nonsense. Because in the curriculum from childhood to university, there is no clear explanation. So it's really not a good idea. I think that in fact, this is also our neglect and lack of traditional culture. Actually, it really shouldn't. In this way, we will make our future generations forget these things more and more.
At least, I only understood this after I reached middle age and studied Chinese medicine on my own, although it is very complicated to use science to infer a bunch of theories, but it really exists, and it affects our lives closely. Since then, I have gradually come to understand how great and profound our ancestors, our traditional culture, are.
I remember that when I was in the Chinese medicine class from scratch, Mr. Sun Pengfei said that in traditional Chinese medicine, in the season, and in the prevention of diseases, there is a saying called "to but not to, not to come", saying that whenever this time, it is easy to cause disorders in people's body functions, and it is easy to cause a large number of people to get sick and have the same type of disease. It also poses a great threat to the elderly and infirm.
What is the to-and-no-come, non-to-be-come?
Here's an example. Let's just say that according to the above proverb, the solar term of frost is the transitional solar term from autumn to winter. The weather is getting colder and colder, everything is ready for winter, and the human body is preparing for the coming winter. However, if the weather did not go according to her normal rhythm, it suddenly became unusually warm. At this time, there will be a normal human body according to the law of natural development to prepare for the cold, but the weather has become abnormally warm, so, just like two curves with the same frequency and fluctuations, should have been the same down, into the state of winter storage, suddenly there is a downward to continue the winter storage, the other to go up is completely opposite, then there will definitely be the human body is not adaptable. As a result, there will be symptoms such as irritation, coughing, and lung injury. This is also known as the "epidemic of the times".
The teacher said that every time at this time, I can see the same type of people coming to see the doctor. The physical causes of the disease are similar. However, of course, the symptoms of the manifestation vary from person to person, but the cause will be the same if you dig deeper. This also reflects some of the concepts of "five luck and six qi" and "simultaneous treatment of different diseases" of traditional Chinese medicine.
It should be cooled but not cold, and it should be hot but not hot, which leads to the disorder of all things, and the human body functions are not balanced. It means that the solar term has arrived, but the corresponding weather phenomenon has not arrived for a long time or is directly the opposite.
So what is not coming? For example, rain. The spring is blooming, there is some light rain, and the solar term has arrived, but the weather has been cold. It's also easy to get sick. And everything is affected.
Hey, but let's talk about the beginning of spring, it's so far at once.
Sure enough, spring is coming. Kunming, a plateau city, will not be like the north. We have long been in the wind and the sun. The camphor trees are about to bloom. Of course, there are also plants in the city that do not lose their leaves all year round, and shrubs like evergreen that are always green. Then the pink early cherry blossoms didn't know how many stubbles they had bloomed, and the pink peach blossoms had already lit up the branches, and the trees were red. The sky is also very blue and the sun is shining.
It's really like heaven, where the gods live. (snickering). Take a picture with your hand, and it's all a beautiful view. I remember that this theme was on the hot search before, just because of a middle school in the sea of clouds in Nujiang. Standing in the hallway, you can see the sea of clouds through the big glass window, do you remember?
But yesterday, looking at the weather forecast, many cities were still snowing heavily.
The beginning of spring in Kunming is really full of spring. It's just that the temperature difference between morning and evening is still a bit big. State of 2-18 degrees.
However, because of the southwest monsoon, the wind is particularly strong. The trees were crooked, and the skin was so dry. It's going to itch all over my body, and the back of my foot is cracked. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, this is a deficiency of kidney qi.
In addition, because spring is coming, the liver qi rises, the wind is strong, and allergies become extraordinarily prone to occur. The itchy skin on the body is a manifestation, and according to traditional Chinese medicine, it is also a manifestation of insufficient lung qi.
So, if the cough occurs after 3 p.m., it is definitely a lung cough. Because all the internal organs can make people cough, then there is time to determine, and the diagnosis can be better made. Is 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock the time when the lung meridian runs? Then you can see whether the lungs are yin deficiency or the wind is cold.
My eyes are also itchy, and I seem to have a little conjunctivitis. Ophthalmic ointment with chlortetracycline.
In short, spring is coming, which will bring the breath of spring, but also the problem of spring.
Tomorrow is the rainy season again.
These days are really slippery.
