Start of Autumn ushers in early autumn.
Start of Autumn (Liqiu) is the 13th solar term in China’s 24‑solar‑term calendar, marking the beginning of autumn.
It usually falls between August 7 and 9 in the Gregorian calendar.
Summer heat gradually fades, cool breezes arrive, and nature moves from vigorous growth to harvest‑ready maturity.
Traditional customs include autumn feasting, sun‑dried crops and nourishing the body for cooler weather.
As summer draws to an end, we look forward to autumn gains and fresh‑begun opportunities.
