October 28th –November 1st, 2024 is Autumn – SOKO (Frost falls)-53rd KOU “Light rains sometimes fall”
It has been raining lightly since this morning, as if the weather is just as expected with the SHICHIJYUNIKOU calendar. It’s drizzle in autumn.
In the 4th KOU of the calendar “Rain moistens the soil”, the frozen earth began to melt, and then in the 17th KOU “Last frost, rice seedling grow”, the frost melted, the grass and trees began to burn, and the agricultural work season began.
From now on, the seasons will move in the opposite direction. In autumn, the temperature drops by one degree with each rain.
The rice harvest ended over a month ago. Apples are coming in season. After that, we will harvest HAKUSAI (Chinese cabbage) and NOZAWANA (turnip greens), and then outdoor farm work finally is completed.
