Imagery & Provenance意象与出处

Solar term

惊蛰 · Awakening of Insects — "微雨众卉新，一雷惊蛰始。"

Imagery

“Qian” is the crimson of layered dye; “fá” names the deep, shadowed red of heavy silk. A saturated oxblood.

Origin

Awakening of Insects’ turning colour drops below Vermilion Grass into the depth a dye-bath reaches after repeated dips. The term builds its red by steps — ochre, vermilion, dark red, and finally this near-black red — as thunder clouds gather before the first rain.

System

B Solar-term sets

Source

Wei Yingwu, “Watching the Farmstead” — a poem on the farmer’s year, beginning at the first thunder. (turning colour of 惊蛰.)
