Imagery & Provenance意象与出处

Solar term

小满 · Grain Full — "苦菜秀，靡草死，小暑至。"

Imagery

From the Book of Songs: “a girl gave me a vermilion tube.” A warm, muted pink-red.

Origin

Grain Full marks the grain swelling but not yet ripe. The term’s palette is a single red family, and it opens with the softest of the four — the pink-red of the poet’s gift, bright but not yet hot.

System

B Solar-term sets

Source

Book of Rites, Monthly Ordinances: “On the day of Grain Full, the sow-thistle flourishes.” (opening colour of 小满.)

《礼记·月令》：小满之日，苦菜秀。
