2022年12月22日，我国进入冬至节气。冬至，是二十四节气中最早制订出的节气，是养生学中一个重要的节气。主要因为我国古时曾以冬至定为子月，以岁首过新年，即一年的开始，在一天十二时辰中，子时也是人体阳气初生的时间，即“冬至-阳生”，代表下一循环开始，为大吉之日。 On December 22, 2022, China will enter the winter solstice solar term. The Winter Solstice, the earliest solar term among the 24 solar terms, is an important solar term in health preservation. This is mainly because in ancient China, the winter solstice was designated as the lunar month, and the New Year was celebrated at the beginning of the year, that is, the beginning of the year... 冬至，又称日短至、冬节、亚岁、拜冬等，兼具自然与人文两大内涵，既是二十四节气中一个重要的节气，也是中国民间的传统节日，至今已有2500年以上的历史。 The Winter Solstice, also known as the Short Solstice, the Winter Festival, the Asian Lunar New Year, and the Worship of Winter, has two connotations: nature and humanity. It is not only an important solar term among the 24 solar terms, but also a traditional Chinese folk festival. It has a history of more than 2500 years.
冬至是四时八节之一，被视为冬季的大节日，在古代民间有“冬至大如年”的讲法，所以古人称冬至为“亚岁”或“小年”。 The Winter Solstice is one of the four seasons and eight festivals, which is regarded as a big festival in winter. In ancient times, there was a saying that "the Winter Solstice is as big as the year", so the ancient people called it "the sub year" or "the small year". 冬至是“二十四节气”之第22个节气，斗指子，太阳黄经达270°，于每年公历12月21－23日交节。冬至标示着北半球的太阳高度最小，白昼时间最短，但是冬至日的温度并不是最低。冬至这天太阳直射地面的位置到达一年的最南端，太阳光几乎直射南回归线，太阳光对北半球最为倾斜。 The winter solstice is the 22nd solar term of the "24 solar terms". The dou zhi zi, with the sun's yellow longitude reaching 270 °, is held on December 21-23 of the Gregorian calendar each year. The winter solstice indicates that the northern hemisphere has the lowest solar height and the shortest daytime, but the temperature of the winter solstice is not the lowest.
冬至日是北半球各地白昼时间最短、黑夜最长的一天，并且越往北白昼越短；过了冬至以后，太阳直射点逐渐向北移动，北半球白昼开始逐渐变长；因此，古人认为，冬至为一年中阳气最弱的一天，此后则阳气渐渐回升。时至冬至，民间便开始“数九”计算寒天了，民谚云：“夏至三庚入伏，冬至逢壬数九。 The winter solstice is the day with the shortest day and the longest night in the Northern Hemisphere, and the days are shorter as you go north; After the winter solstice, the direct sunlight point gradually moved northward, and the days in the Northern Hemisphere began to grow longer. 节气习俗 冬至习俗因地域不同而又存在着习俗内容或细节上的差异。在中国南方地区，有冬至祭祖、宴饮的习俗。在中国北方地区，有冬至吃饺子的习俗。饺子有“消寒”之意，民谚称“冬至不端饺子碗，冻掉耳朵没人管”。 Winter solstice customs vary in content or details due to different regions. In southern China, there are customs of ancestor worship and feasting on the winter solstice. In northern China, it is customary to eat dumplings on the winter solstice. Dumplings have the meaning of "dispelling the cold". As a folk saying goes, "The dumpling bowl is not served in the winter solstice, and nobody cares if the ears are frozen off".
吃汤圆：江南地区，有冬至日吃汤圆的习俗，“圆”意味着“团圆”“圆满”，冬至吃汤圆又叫“冬至圆”。民间有“吃了汤圆大一岁之说”。 Eating tangyuan: In Jiangnan, it is customary to eat tangyuan on the winter solstice. "Yuan" means "reunion" and "completeness". Eating tangyuan on the winter solstice is also called "winter solstice yuan". There is a saying among the people that people are one year older after eating tangyuan. 吃烧腊：南方两广地区在冬至日有吃烧腊的习俗，寓意加菜添岁。 Eating barbecued wax: It is a custom to eat barbecued wax on the winter solstice in Guangdong and Guangxi in the south, which means adding food to add years.
冬至来了，2022也即将收尾，无论这一年怎样艰难，都请卸下身上的负累，给爱的人一个拥抱，道一声：“这一年，辛苦了，一路上有你，真好。” The winter solstice is coming and 2022 is coming to an end. No matter how hard the year is, please unload your burden, give a hug to the person you love, and say, "It's been a hard year. It's good to have you all the way." 在这个团圆日，和父母、妻儿，一起包顿饺子，做一桌饭菜，让亲情、爱情在这一碗人间烟火中长长久久。给好友打一个电话，感谢多年来的相互扶持和帮助，好好守护这份友情。人生很长，有爱才有温度；人生也很短，记得珍惜这当下的幸福。 On this reunion day, we will make dumplings with our parents, wives and children, and cook a table of food, so that family and love can stay in this bowl of fireworks for a long time. Give a call to your friends, thank them for their mutual support and help over the years, and take good care of this friendship. Life is very long, there is love, there is temperature; Life is also very short, remember to cherish the present happiness.
在这即将过去的一年里，无论是得是失，是喜是悲，是起是落，终将成为过往。山河远阔，未来可期，愿你能拂去一身风霜，厚爱这一世人间烟火。 In the coming year, whether gains or losses, joys or sorrows, ups and downs, will eventually become the past. The mountains and rivers are far and wide, and the future is foreseeable. I hope you can sweep away the wind and frost and love the fireworks in this world. |
