Imagery & Provenance意象与出处

Solar term

小暑 · Minor Heat — "温风至，蟋蟀居壁，鹰乃学习。"

Imagery

From the Book of Songs: “the bream’s tail is reddened” — a fish worn thin from swimming upstream; the colour is likewise a heated, exhausted orange-red.

Origin

The poem uses the red tail as an image of toil. As Minor Heat’s turning colour it adds strain to the term’s oranges — heat felt as labour, the colour a body overheats to.

System

B Solar-term sets

Source

Book of Rites, Monthly Ordinances: “On the day of Minor Heat, warm winds arrive.” (turning colour of 小暑.)

Citation

《礼记·月令》：小暑之日，温风至。
