In 2020, there are 40 dog days, are there any dog days customs in the countryside?

Dog day customs are the wisdom left over from the older generation, let's sort out those customs and habits of the past. We must know how to appreciate and respect the culture left by the older generation.

1.Eat dumplings <>

Dumplings are also called "Fu (Fu) stickers" or "Fu (Fu)" dumplings, "Fu" and "Fu" homonym, with the meaning of auspicious and wealthy. Dumplings, which have a history of more than 1,000 years, were originally called "wontons". According to history

In the book "Guangya" written by Zhang Yi, a Wei man of the Three Kingdoms, a kind of wonton food is described: "Today's cloud wontons are shaped like the glaive moon, and the world is also eaten." ”

2.Eat noodles <>

The folk custom of eating noodles in Futian has existed as early as the Three Kingdoms period, "Wei's Spring and Autumn": "He Yan eats soup cakes with Futian, takes a towel to wipe his sweat, and his face is pale, but he knows that he is not Fu Fen." "Jing Chu Years Chronicles" explained:

In June, the sun eclipse soup cake is called to ward off evil. In ancient times in our country, people regarded May as the "evil month", and June also had the edge of the "evil month", so it should also "ward off evil". Use the new wheat to grind flour into soup and eat, sweat after eating, the new grain is nutritious, and sweating can drive away diseases.

3.Bathe. Futian sweats more than in other seasons, and bathing is also reasonable.

At the beginning, bathing in the river, it is called 'washing all diseases'. "On June 6th, Tong Suo bathed in Qu Chuan Spring, and the end was stopped, which was called washing away all diseases. "At the beginning of the year, I washed my hair to remove the wind, fried wheat with almonds, ate a few grains, and did not get sick or nauseated for a year.

The so-called "washing all diseases" here is the inheritance of the ancient customs of purification.

4.Rest <>

Dog days are the hottest time of the year, the plague of germs is prevalent, and the high temperature makes people suffer from heat stroke, so Li Yu of the Qing Dynasty said in "The Story of Idle Love": "The only way to pass the sadness of a year old is the dog days, the consumption of spirit, the life of disease, and the death of death, all because of this ......."If there are only three hours in the sky and no summer, then the death of man will be scarce. In order to avoid the high temperature, people have "escaped the heat" and "enjoyed the coolness".

As the saying goes, "the water recedes and the pool is hot, and the wind is cool and the pine is cool." "The mountains, forests, pools, springs, trees, and caves are all great places to escape the heat.

In 2020, there will be 40 dog days, and in rural dog days, the first dog day is generally eaten dumplings, two dog days are noodles, and three dog days are egg cakes!

As the saying goes, the first dumplings, the second noodles, the three the eggs, the rural areas are generally to eat dumplings, noodles and pancakes, there is nothing else to pay attention to, and I personally think that I still eat some things that defeat the fire.

In 2020, there are indeed 40 dog days, and in the customs of dog days in rural areas, some families will make dumplings. Some families will choose to cook a mutton soup, which means blessing (volt) mutton.

The custom of eating is to eat dumplings and noodles, and pancakes with eggs; The habit of crop planting is to grow cabbage in the first and second mustard in the first and second mustard.

Yes, it is very hot in dog days, people are easy to suffer from heat stroke, and there is such a custom in dog days in the countryside, so you should pay attention to the heat and don't go out too much.

There are three dog days in summer, three dog days in winter can be said to be the hottest period of the year, during this time everyone will be unable to stand the hot weather and appetite is greatly reduced, at this time every day is like eating something cold and cold, but in fact, at this time the most taboo to eat a lot of raw and cold food, the countryside has the saying of "head dumplings and two dog noodles", so every time we go to the ambush, we will make dumplings to eat.

Starting from the summer solstice in 2020, the third Geng day is the ambush, and the third Geng day after the summer solstice this year is July 16.

The dog days are calculated based on the time of the summer solstice. The saying of the dog days has existed since ancient times, so the calculation method of the dog days is related to the ancient method of recording dates. In ancient times, the heavenly stems were used to record time and time, and the heavenly stems were A, B, C, D, E, G, xin, non, and dec, and Geng was the seventh of the ten heavenly stems.

Combined with the twelve earthly branches, every day when there is a Geng is a Geng day, so every 10 days there will be a Geng day.

Dog Day Precautions.

Dog days are the heaviest period of the year, so the diet during this time should be light. In addition, in summer, people like to eat cold food and drink cold drinks, which causes the body to be damp and cold, which causes the decline of spleen and stomach function and the weakening of digestive function.

During dog days, the weather is hot and humid, and the human body is easily eroded by moisture. Therefore, during the dog days, you must pay attention to the discharge of dampness in your diet, and there are many common foods that can help the body dehumidify, such as barley, red beans, mung beans and other foods, which are very good foods for dehumidification.

In the countryside, there has always been a saying that "the summer solstice is three Geng several head volts", so the dog days are calculated according to the time of the summer solstice. It is the third Geng day of the summer solstice, every ten days is a Geng day, the middle volt is the fourth Geng day after the summer solstice, and the end is the first Geng day after the beginning of the autumn solar term. It is estimated that this year will be on July 16 (May 26 of the lunar calendar).

July 16th. The three dog days are the beginning, the middle, and the end, of which the first is 10 days, the middle is 10 days or 20 days, and the last is 10 days.

July 16, 2020 is this year's ambush day, and its specific date is calculated according to the ancient dry branch method in China, with a perfect calculation algorithm!

On July 16, 2020, it entered Futian; The date of the dog days is counted from the summer solstice to the end of the three "Geng" days, which is called the first dog day, the "Geng" day between the fourth and fifth days is called the middle dog day, and the first to the second "Geng" day after the beginning of autumn is called the last dog day.

There are 40 dog days in the year. The reason for the emergence of 40 days is that the beginning of the day is generally 10 days, the middle of the day is 10 days or 20 days, the end of the day is 10 days, the time of the dog days of the year needs to be checked to calculate, according to the ancient popular stem branch of Sun Tan, there are 10 heavenly stems and 12 earthly branches to match the 60 groups of names, use these to cycle the use of the day.

2. The annual ambush time is calculated from the third Geng day of the summer solstice, and the Geng day is repeated every 10 days, if there are 4 Geng days between the summer solstice and the beginning of autumn, then the middle volt is 10 days, if there are 5 Geng days, then the middle volt is 20 days, and the annual Geng day is not determined, so the dog days are sometimes 30 days, sometimes 40 days.

Why are there 40 days in 2020, and when will it start to be ambushed? After reading it, I know it!

The so-called dog days refer to the highest temperature and the most sultry periods of the year, many netizens said that they would rather be cold than so hot, and the dog days of each year are basically between the heat and the heat, and the duration will be different depending on the year. Compared with the past, this year's dog days have been delayed by four days, and according to the relevant data of the meteorological department, the temperature will change greatly this year, and it will be very hot this year.

This year's dog days start on July 16 and end on August 24, so this year's dog days have 40 days, and the general situation is only 30 days.

Because the difference between the dog days in 2020 is 40 days, and the length of the dog days is determined according to the time of the difference between the dog days, there are 40 dog days in 2020.

Dog days are very difficult, after all, the weather is very hot, and this year's dog days cycle is also relatively long, specifically because of the cycle of the fifth Geng day, which is actually calculated according to the change of the calendar.

Because this year is special, the heat is included in the dog days, so the duration seems to be relatively long.

Yes, this is determined by the solar terms and the stem branch, but in previous years, the dog days were about this long, so everyone should pay attention to heatstroke.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the dog days are coming soon, this dog days are nearly 40 days, and many readers are curious about when the dog days are in 22? In fact, the dog days of 22 years start on the 16th of July and end around the 24th of August, lasting about 40 days. Let's give you a detailed introduction, readers can make an understanding in advance.

Dog days are the hottest period of the year, the summer temperature is high, the rainfall increases, the humidity of the ground increases, the ground evaporates to absorb heat, and the humidity of the air causes the summer weather to get hotter and hotter, entering the dog days. Dog days are calculated in the lunar calendar, generally between the two solar terms of Xiaoxia and the beginning of autumn. The dog days of each year are not fixed, according to 10 days for one volt, the first volt is the first stage, and then the middle and last volts are respectively.

During this time, the sun is shining directly, and the heat is unbearable. This is where residents must pay attention to heat prevention. At this time, the temperature is generally high.

The air is stuffy, so you must replenish water in time in your daily life, or drink some low-concentration salt water appropriately. Residents at home should pay attention to indoor air circulation, long-term stuffy environment will lead to aggravation of human moisture, chest tightness and shortness of breath, at this time must open more windows. Also, the sun is at its strongest on dog days, so try not to be outdoors at this time.

Especially around two o'clock in the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day. At this time, it is easy to get dehydrated and suffer from heat stroke and sunburn. Dog days with too high temperature will lead to poor appetite, at this time, residents can eat some fruits and vegetables appropriately, and replenish vitamins and water in time to achieve the effect of reducing heat.

Dog days are about to begin, and residents are very fond of hiding in air-conditioned rooms. Hiding in an air-conditioned environment for a long time is very unfriendly to the human body. In the evening, the temperature drops, often accompanied by a cool breeze.

At this time, residents can go to a cool place to cool off, turn off the air conditioner and open the doors and windows to ventilate. Although dog days can be uncomfortable, residents should also go out and exercise properly.

Looking at this year's dog days schedule, I found that the dog days are from July 16th, and the dog days are as long as 40 days, and the disturbance will end on the 24th of August.

The three dog days are the first volts, and the middle limbs are collectively referred to as the hottest and wettest time of the year, and 2022 begins on July 16. Rush to sleep.

The third Geng day after the summer solstice is the beginning of Futian, and from this day on, the weather will be very hot, and the temperature will gradually rise.

This year's dog days are forty days, and the dog days of 2021 are also forty days. This thing is the law of nature.

Today, I happened to be interested in the dog days, and I checked the calculation method, and I just happened to see this problem.

The dog days are from the third Geng day after the summer solstice to the beginning of autumn, and there are four Geng days in the middle that are 30 days, and five Geng days are 40 days.

But June 21, the day of the summer solstice in 2021, is the Geng day, so the answers found are different, some say that the summer solstice will start to calculate on the day of the Geng, and some say that the summer solstice will start to calculate the next day, so the dog days in 2021 will be 30 days or 40 days... It depends on whether the day of the summer solstice is the Geng day and whether it is counted as the first Geng day of the summer solstice.

I tend to be inclined to the 40 dog days in 2021, because I also found a saying that the beginning of autumn and the next two days, if there is a Geng day, the dog days of the year are 30 days, but in 2021, the Geng day after the beginning of autumn will appear on the third day after the beginning of autumn. And I have checked a number of years, generally June 21 summer solstice year, the summer solstice in 2002 is June 21, 2002 is July 11, 30 days of dog days, then the summer solstice day if it is a Geng day should probably be included in the first Geng day after the summer solstice.

Generally, in the 150-year dog date table, 2021 is also recorded as 40 dog days, and July 11 is ambushed, which is basically the same as 2002. 2025 is the 30th dog day that will appear recently, and the inquiry of the beginning of autumn in 2025 tells that the 2nd day after the beginning of autumn is Geng day, which is in line with the above statement.

At present, I have not found an authoritative answer, and if I find it, I will follow up on it.

ps: There is also a saying that the summer solstice is actually a precise time point, and Geng Day has just stepped on the time point of the summer solstice, so that day can also be regarded as the first Geng day, but there is only one answer to mention, and there is no specific statement, so it is doubtful.

ps2: After checking the data for many years, I found that many of the ambushes on July 11 were June 21 The summer solstice is Geng Day, but there are discrepancies, such as the summer solstice in 83, some say it is June 21, some say it is June 22, but most of the ambushes say it is July 11, and there are 62 years... Drunk, maybe this thing is really something.

What day does dog days start this year? What are the customs about dog days?

Dog days, which appear between the small heat and the big heat, have only one sign of its arrival, and the hottest time has begun. Dog days are the hottest, wettest, and most stuffy days of the year, and as the name suggests, they are the most uncomfortable days of summer.
