The saying that it rains when the head falls is: "When the head falls, there is rain, and when the head falls, there is rain."
The literal meaning of the sentence "There is rain in the first fall, and there is rain in the first fall" is easy to explain literally. If it rains during the first fall (it also explains that it rains on the first day of the first fall), then it will rain in the middle and last fall. It will also rain a lot. From the perspective of agricultural planting, summer has entered the dog days, with higher temperatures and appropriate rainfall, which will help alleviate drought in the fields and promote the growth of field crops.
However, if there is a lot of rainfall, the 40 days of dog days will be mainly cloudy and rainy days. On the one hand, the light will be affected, which is not conducive to flowering and grain filling. On the other hand, rainfall will increase the humidity in the field. , under conditions of high temperature and humidity, pests and diseases are prone to occur, which is not conducive to the normal growth of crops. Therefore, from the analysis of this sentence, it is not good to fall head first or fall into rain.
