YANGSHENG CALENDAR

The 24 Solar Terms
Traditional Seasonal Living

The traditional Chinese calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms (节气, *Jiéqì*). Developed by ancient farmers and physicians, this calendar tracks the sun's longitude to reflect environmental changes and biological cycles. Each term represents a unique shift in the Earth's Yin and Yang, providing an actionable guide for food, drink, and lifestyle choices.

Spring (春)

Yang rising, expansion, liver & gallbladder focus.

Summer (夏)

Yang at peak, activity, heart & small intestine focus.

Autumn (秋)

Yin rising, contraction, lung & large intestine focus.

Winter (冬)

Yin at peak, storage, kidney & bladder focus.
