It usually falls between October 23 and 24 on the Gregorian calendar, landing on October 23 this year. As the name indicates, it signifies the transition from autumn to winter, with temperatures dropping sharply across China. The first frost appears in the northern regions, and the daily temperature range reaches its widest point of the year. A folk saying goes, "Cold Dew isn't truly cold, but Frost's Descent brings a real change in the weather." Tradition has it that Chinese people enjoy appreciating the late autumn scenery and blooming chrysanthemums. Other customs include eating persimmons, believed to help ward off the cold. In many areas, it is also common to eat nourishing foods, such as duck and mutton soup, to supplement nutrition. The arrival of winter also means putting on extra layers to stay warm. Nature’s rhythm calls for all creatures, big and small, to conserve their strength during Frost's Descent as they wait for renewal after winter. Community rituals at this time serve as a reminder to follow the natural order and nurture hope for rebirth during this period of conservation and reflection.
