6月6日，農歷五月初八。

芒種,顧名思義“有芒之谷類(lèi)作物可種”，古人稱(chēng)之為“五月節”，是夏季的第三個(gè)節氣。

人們在芒種到來(lái)前播撒下一年中最后一批種子。芒種這天,古人還會(huì )煮青梅,送花神,進(jìn)行安苗祭祀,祈求風(fēng)調雨順。

In mandarin, Grain in Ear means that"all grains can be sowed". Being the third solar term in summer, it is also called May Festival.

People always sow the last batch of seeds before Grain in Ear comes. To celebrate it, Chinese ancestors boil green plum, see off the Goddess of Flower, and host a ceremony for the grains.

南方種稻，北方收麥，大江南北，一片農忙景象。此時(shí)，南方的夏雨正連綿不絕，炎炎夏日被金風(fēng)細雨打落，雨墜荷葉間，如盈盈滾動(dòng)的玉珠。

In this period, north and south China are both in a busy farming season. In south, Summer rain constantly breaks the blistering summer day. Raindrop falls on the lotus leaf, as a shining pearl is rolling down.

淥沼蓮花放,炎風(fēng)暑雨情?！对佖ニ臍庠?shī)·芒種五月節》唐·元稹

文人勸人珍惜當下，常以花相代：“花開(kāi)堪折直須折,莫待無(wú)花空折枝?！贝緲愕霓r民則以芒種為期勸人：“芒種不種，再種無(wú)用?！?/p>

When poets try to seize the moment, it would be"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may." While pragmatic farmers have another saying:"No sowing befor Grain in Ear, no gaining for the rest of the year."
