The origin of dog days
The dog days are a way of dividing time in the traditional Chinese calendar, which originated from ancient observations of the movement of the sun. The word "Fu" in Dog Days means "lurking", which refers to the period when Yang Qi is at its strongest and Yin Qi is latent. The calculation method of the dog days is based on the method of counting the days of the stems and branches. The third day after the summer solstice is the first day, the fourth day after the summer solstice is the middle day, and the first day after the beginning of autumn is the last day.
