What's the story about the origin of the winter solstice
According to the records of the Zhou Dynasty, people used the winter solstice to worship the sky in the suburbs, and because the first month of the Zhou calendar is November in the summer calendar, the first month in the Zhou Dynasty is equal to our present November, so there is no difference between worshipping the New Year and celebrating the winter. It was not until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted the summer calendar that the first month and the winter solstice were separated. Therefore, it can also be said that the Winter Festival only existed after the Han Dynasty. Because of the different calendars, people have been inheriting the weekly calendar, thinking that after the winter solstice is the beginning of another year. There is a saying that you will be one year older after eating dumplings. This is why the winter solstice is so valued by the people.
