Lidong: The Beauty and Customs of the Solar Term
Lidong, the nineteenth of China's twenty-four solar terms, is also the first solar term of winter. It usually arrives on November 7th or 8th of the Gregorian calendar each year. "Li" means to establish or begin, and "Dong" means that all things are stored away and life is dormant. The arrival of Lidong marks the stage where crops are harvested and stored, animals begin to prepare for hibernation, and the climate begins to transition from late autumn to severe winter. Temperatures gradually drop, and northern regions may welcome the first snow.
On Lidong, there are rich folk customs in China. "Lidong Bu Dong, Bu Zui Kong" (Winter Solstice replenishment, filling the mouth) is a widely circulated saying. People believe that Lidong is a good time for tonic, supplementing nutrition by eating lamb, dumplings, chicken, duck, fish, and other foods to resist the cold of winter. For example, in the north, there is a custom of eating dumplings, believing that "if you don't eat dumplings on Lidong, your ears will freeze off and no one will care"; in the south, people prefer to eat chicken, duck, fish, or nourishing soups. In addition, the period around Lidong is also an important time for people to pay attention to keeping warm, adjusting their routines, and preparing for winter life.
