24 Solar Terms: Major Heat

Saturday marks the "Major Heat," or Dashu in Chinese, the 12th of the 24 solar terms that divide the Chinese lunar year into two halves. It is also the last solar term of the summer. It usually completely overlaps with the "Dog Days," which begin on July 16 this year, and are expected to last for 40 days.
