The original content of the 24 Solar Terms was very simple, but over many years, they slowly developed into focal points for an extremely fertile cultural milieu. They are guides to farming life, reference dates for weather forecasting and holidays for all sorts of ceremonial activities. Almanacs, the weather, agriculture, the general life of the community--all abide under the shadow of the Solar Terms!
