大雪节气

大雪,是二十四节气中的第二十一个节气,时间是公历每年的12月7日或8日,也是干支历亥月的结束以及子月的起始;其时视太阳到达黄经255度。大雪的意思是天气更冷,降雪的可能性比小雪时更大了,并不指降雪量一定很大,相反,大雪后各地降水量均进一步减少。


大雪


大雪是中国传统二十四节气(the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms)中的第二十一个节气, 大雪的英文表达是Heavy Snow。“大者,盛也。至此而雪盛矣。” 此时的降雪量并不一定是最大的,但降雪的几率在逐渐增大。


During Major Snow, the snow becomes heavy and begins to accumulate on the ground. The temperature drops significantly.


大雪时节,降雪量增大,地面开始积雪,温度下降显著


大雪习俗

民间素来有 “瑞雪兆丰年”("A timely snow promises a good harvest.")的说法。待到白雪覆盖茫茫大地,越冬的害虫会被低温杀死。


The snow in North China may last a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road. The natural scenery is "ice blockading for hundreds miles and snow flying through thousands miles". In the South, the snowflakes swirl around and the world turns white.


大雪当天,在中国北方,降雪可能持续一整日,积雪压断树枝,堵塞道路。自然景色可谓“千里冰封,万里雪飘”。而南方则是雪花纷飞,世界渐渐染上银色。


大雪节气有哪些习俗呢?一起来看看吧。


赏腊梅

“墙角数枝梅,凌寒独自开。”诗人赋予了梅花坚强、无畏的特性,自此“观梅”不再仅仅是为了赏花,更增添了几分高洁的意趣。南方地区的腊梅常在12月开放,所以大雪正是赏梅好时节。
