Why is it that China's lunar solar terms predict the weather so accurately?

Nowadays, in many places, rural farming will also refer to ancient solar terms, and the accuracy of solar terms handed down from ancient times is very high. According to this solar term, planting will generally have a bumper harvest. So some babies are curious about why the ancient solar terms can predict the weather so accurately. This is because the ancient society of China attached importance to agriculture and restrained commerce, and it was in the period of agricultural civilization, so the whole country paid more attention to agricultural harvest, so the rulers and the masses of past dynasties paid more attention to the change of weather.

I. Farming Civilization The so-called farming civilization refers to the long-term social production process in which farmers grow crops in the fields as their main source of livelihood and national economy. Moreover, during the period of agricultural civilization in China, Confucianism and various religious cultures also converged into one. And formed its own unique cultural connotation and characteristics. The characteristic of farming civilization is that men plow and women weave. Although the scale is small, the division of labor is relatively clear, and it can be self-sufficient to meet the needs of life without commodity trading. Another feature of China's farming civilization is that rice is widely planted in the south and chestnuts are planted in the north.

Second, it is very important to consolidate the accuracy of national solar terms in the period of agricultural civilization, which directly affects the growth time and harvest of crops. If the solar terms are accurate enough, it will help to promote crop growth. People don't have to worry about food and clothing, and the country has enough grain reserves. Even if there is a war or other disaster, there is enough time to deal with it. On the other hand, solar terms are not allowed, and crops are not harvested. People can't solve the problem of food and clothing, and being hungry all day is easy to cause domestic unrest. In this case, it is impossible for the country to develop steadily. Therefore, in order to consolidate the country's development, rulers of past dynasties will make great efforts to study the role of solar terms in agriculture.

Third, the significance of farming civilization Solar terms play a very important role in the history of our country, which regulates people's rural life. According to the integrity, we can handle the weather change correctly. Therefore, solar terms have directly promoted the prosperity and stability of the country, and rulers of past dynasties have attached great importance to solar terms, so it will be more accurate.
