“Dokoro” is a kanji with many meanings, but in this case, it means “to blend in.” Therefore, “Shojo” means “when the heat subsides, when everything calms down.”
According to the calendar, it has already entered autumn, but the residual heat has not yet subsided. I hope there will be cooler days in this hot summer.
What season is it in Changchun now? Let’s look at some keywords.
Can you hear the “sound of autumn”?
You could also call it “autumn sounds,” but if you use “sounds” instead of “sounds,” don’t you think the sounds you hear become more lifelike?
Yamaguchi Shogun, a mining scholar and haiku poet born in the mid-Meiji period, wrote the following poem.
~Standing in Toto on the north side, you can hear the sound of autumn~
“Kitagami” refers to the Kitakami River that flows through Iwate and Miyagi Prefectures, and “Kitagami” is the departure and arrival point of the ferry.
What kind of “Autumn Sound” did the Lord Yamaguchi of Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture, hear when he stood at the Kitakami River Ferry?
Will summer finally end with “August God”?
In ancient times, it was used in the month of seasonal change to express regret at the end of each season.
In recent years, the seasonal word “~jin” has also begun to be used in other months, simply indicating the end of that month.
It depends on the region, but in modern times many people feel the end of summer as soon as August arrives.
While some may be relieved to finally be able to say goodbye to the sweltering heat, others may also be feeling a little sad that August is over.
I want to prepare for the great “Nowaki”
~Is this a wilderness with something cool passing through?
This is a haiku written by Takahama Kyoshi, a haiku poet and novelist born in the early Meiji period.
This “big event” “Nowaki” refers to Typhoon Muroto that occurred in September 1934 (Showa 9).
Typhoon Muroto caused more than 3,000 deaths and missing persons.
How small human existence is compared to the ferocity of nature. This may not have changed.
Be wary of “Two Hundred Tugang”
This year (2024) the first day of spring is February 4th. It is already the 210th day from that day, so the 210th day of this year is August 31 (Saturday). Day 210 is usually around September 1st.
The 210th day of the year has always been considered an unlucky day, as disasters such as wildfires are prone to occur, and farmers are particularly cautious.
In addition to the 210th day, the 220th day (the 200th day) is also considered a bad day because there are many wild days. Day 220 this year is Tuesday, September 10th.
Around the 210th and 220th days, wind festivals are held to appease the wind god. Depending on the region, the wind festival is also called “Fuchinsai” or “Tosenbo”.
There are still some areas and shrines that continue the tradition of wind festivals, such as the “Ohara Wind Bon” dance in Hachimachi, Toyama City.
The beginning of autumn has passed, we are entering a heat wave, and it looks like we will soon be relieved from the sweltering heat. However, high summer temperatures may still persist in some areas.
Please be careful about temperature changes and wind and rain caused by Nowaki (typhoon), and spend every day in good health and safety.
