The exact time of the beginning of autumn in 2020

The "Chinese Astronomical Calendar" shows that the "Beginning of Autumn" solar term will arrive at 9:06 Beijing time on August 7. Summer ends and autumn comes, the golden wind gradually arrives, and autumn in the traditional sense begins from then on. Experts said that as an important seasonal festival in my country, on the day of "Li Qiu", people have customs such as "putting on weight in autumn" and "biting autumn".

Is it early autumn or late autumn in 2020?

The ancients had a saying that "early autumn brings coolness, while late autumn brings heat enough to kill cows", so is this year's autumn early or late? What is the difference between early autumn and late autumn?

The first is to determine based on the specific time of the Beginning of Autumn, whether it is in the morning or afternoon, with noon as the definition. If the Beginning of Autumn is in the morning, then it is "early Beginning of Autumn." If the beginning of autumn is in the afternoon, then it is called "late beginning of autumn".

August 7th 09:06:03, so it is an early beginning of autumn.

The second way of saying it is to distinguish according to the date of the lunar calendar. For example, in some years, the beginning of autumn is in the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and in some years, the beginning of autumn is in the seventh month of the lunar calendar. The beginning of autumn in June is considered to be early, while the beginning of autumn in July is considered to be late. The beginning of autumn in 2020 is on the 18th day of the sixth lunar month, which is still an early beginning of autumn.

Combining the two statements, this year's Beginning of Autumn is early. I hope the summer heat will subside soon.
