【穀雨】
──清明斷雪，穀雨斷霜
.
穀雨是春季的最後一個節氣，在每年的4月20日前後，太陽到達黃經30°。今年是在西曆4月20日，節氣的名稱源自古人「雨生百穀」之說，來自天上的雨水具有生長的能量，「穀雨時節種穀天」，穀雨前後正是種瓜點豆、栽秧移苗的最佳時節，這時候的穀物最需要上天的雨水滋養催生，故天隨「穀」願，每年的第一場大雨大多降在穀雨這段時間前後。
.
「清明斷雪，穀雨斷霜」，穀雨之後，寒冷的天氣消失，氣溫快速回升，天氣真正變得暖和起來。戶外散步、走八卦都是不錯的選擇，讓自然的風吹走煩悶疲勞，讓上天的雨洗去身心的塵垢污濁，讓生命在自然中吐濁納清。

Grain Rain
-- The snow stops after the arrival of Ching Ming (Qingming); the frost stops after the arrival of the Grain Rain.
“Grain Rain” is the last solar term in spring and usually happens around April 20th, when the sun is at 30 degrees longitude. This year, Grain Rain falls exactly on April 20th. In the past, people believed that rainwater comes from heavens and possesses special energy that stimulates growth. There was an old saying, “The rain gives life to hundred types of grain”. That was how the term “Grain Rain” came about.
This is the best time for planting seeds and transplanting seedlings. Seedlings require lots of water for nourishment. It was believed that the reason why the first bout of heavy rainfall usually occurs around this period was because the heavens want to help the seedlings grow.
As the saying goes, “The snow stops after the arrival of Ching Ming; The frost stops after the arrival of the Grain Rain.” After the Grain Rain, temperatures normally start to rise and the weather starts to turn warm. Taking walks or practicing Energy Bagua are both good outdoor activities to undertake during this period. The breeze will blow our troubles and fatigue away; The rain will cleanse the dust off our bodies and minds; Our lives will be purified by nature.
