"Shuowen Jiezi" says: "Winter means the end of the four seasons." The original meaning of winter is the end. It is actually the knot used by our ancestors to record events. People tied knots at both ends of the string, which is the image of winter. According to historical records, the Beginning of Winter, the Beginning of Spring, the Beginning of Summer and the Beginning of Autumn are collectively known as the "Four Beginnings" and are important festivals in ancient society. On this day, the emperor would lead civil and military officials to the northern suburbs of the capital to set up an altar for sacrifice and perform the ceremony of "welcoming winter." The north wind blows back and forth, how cold it is Sparse trees swaying in the air, half green and yellow A lamp, a half moon Every night is colder than the last The rivers in the north began to freeze The land becomes hardened Hibernating insects begin to hibernate Everything in the world seems to have quieted down.

After the beginning of winter, colorful clams appeared on the beach At this time, the beautiful pheasants that were common before are no longer there. Hence the saying that the pheasant turned into a giant clam.
