Q: What date is August 23, 2012?

Answer: Today is August 23, 2012, Thursday, July 7, 2012 in the lunar calendar.

Festivals (or solar terms) are: summer and Qixi Festival.

Heat: Heat, one of the 24 solar terms. The summer solar term is around August 23 every year. At this time, the Sun reaches the ecliptic longitude of 150°. According to the "Seventy-two Candidate Explanations of the Lunar Order": "Place, go, the heat will stop here." ”

Qixi Festival: The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the Qixi Festival, also known as the Qiqiao Festival. Qixi Festival is the most romantic festival among China's traditional festivals, and is also considered to be "Chinese Valentine's Day".

August 7, 2010 is the beginning of autumn, one of the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar. This is a solar term that begins in autumn, and the beginning of autumn occurs on August 7 or 8 every year when the sun reaches 135 degrees of yellow longitude.

Due to the different climates in different parts of the country, the start time of autumn is not very consistent. In climatology, the beginning of autumn is often defined as the beginning of autumn when the average temperature of every five days drops steadily below 22 degrees, which is more in line with the actual situation in various places, but it is quite different from the date of the beginning of autumn in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. After the beginning of autumn, the temperature began to drop, and the early rice was harvested and the late rice was transplanted in central China, and the large autumn crops entered an important period of growth and development.

In the past, people paid a lot of attention to solar terms, and most of them were related to eating and disease prevention, which was not unrelated to people's concern for their own life and health. "The people take food as the sky", the beginning of autumn is a very important solar term, and people can't forget to eat. Therefore, the folk in Beijing and Hebei are popular to "paste autumn fat".

People have poor appetites, so many people will lose weight. During the Qing Dynasty, it was popular among the people to weigh people on hanging scales on the day of counting volts (of course, most of them were called children), and the weight was compared with the beginning of summer to test the fat and thin, and the weight loss was called "bitter summer". At that time, people's health was often judged only by fat and thin.

Of course, you need to "make up" if you are thin, and the way to make up for it is to "stick autumn fat" in the beginning of autumn, eat delicious delicacies, and of course the first choice is to eat meat, "to stick to the fat with meat". On this day, ordinary people eat stewed meat, and those who are particular about it eat white-cut meat, red stewed meat, as well as meat-stuffed dumplings, stewed chicken, stewed duck, braised fish, etc. There is also the custom of eating watermelon in the beginning of autumn in the Jiangnan area.

That is, in the past, after the beginning of autumn, the weather gradually cooled, and the number of watermelons on the market was decreasing.
