The Awakening of lnsects usually falls on March 5 or 6. As the name suggests, it denotes the sudden awakening of animals that have been hibernating in caves and burrows throughout the winter by spring thunder. Chinese ancients made various sacrifices to the God of Thunder to pray for favorable weather, because the weather on the day of the Awakening of lnsects is believed to foretell what will follow during the ensuing period. If, for instance, it's cold on that day, then the next solar term will be warm, but if a north wind blows, a few more wintry days are in store.
