24 Solar Terms丨Clear and Bright
Updated: 2023-04-05    Source: HiZhongshan Large Medium Small Print

Clear and Bright (Chinese: 清明), or Pure Brightness, the 5th solar term, starts this year on April 5.

Of all the 24 solar terms, Clear and Bright is the only one whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival, Tomb Sweeping Day.

The words "clear" and "bright" describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it a crucial time for plowing and sowing in the spring.
