"The heat and depression have not yet subsided, but the cool breeze has already risen." August 7th officially marks the beginning of the "Beginning of Autumn" solar term. The Beginning of Autumn is divided into three stages. The "first stage is the arrival of cool breezes". After the Beginning of Autumn, the temperature difference between day and night increases, the summer heat is gone and the weather becomes cooler, and you can feel a slight chill in the mornings and evenings. The "second stage is the falling of white dew". The temperature difference between day and night is large, and dew is easily condensed on outdoor plants in the early morning. The "third stage is the chirping of cicadas". After the autumn cools down, cicadas have difficulty in speaking, and their voices become mournful because they know their life is coming to an end.
