Imagery & Provenance意象与出处

Solar term

雨水 · Rain Water — "随风潜入夜，润物细无声。"

Imagery

Red thinned by water — a colour washed lightly toward pink, the way a drop of dye moves through a basin.

Origin

As Rain Water’s succeeding colour it names the exact middle of the term’s palette: the pink of new water, still dilute. Chinese dyers used “water” prefixes to mark a colour thinned by a step, so Water Pink sits one stage deeper than Brimming — the rain gathering, the light holding.

Du Fu, “Happy Rain on a Spring Night” — “it steals in on the night wind, moistening all things in silence.” (succeeding colour of 雨水.)
