夏が極まり秋の気配が立ち始める日とされる。二十四節気では夏至と秋分の中間でこれから立冬までが秋。今年は梅雨がひどく長くようやく明けたと思ったらもう立秋か。酷暑の日々が続くが、今日の茅ヶ崎海岸の夕暮れはどこか秋めいていた。
酒のんで一日秋をわすれけり 子規
Risshu is the day when summer reaches its peak and the signs of autumn begin to appear. In the 24 divisions of the old calendar, Risshu is between the summer solstice and the autumnal equinox, and from then until the first day of winter falls. This year, the rainy season has finally ended for a very long time, but is it already the beginning of autumn? The days of intense heat continued, but today’s sunset at Chigasaki Beach was somewhat autumn.
所谓立秋,是指夏天到了极点,秋天的气息开始显现的日子。24节气中立秋是夏至和秋分之间,之后到立冬为止都是秋天。今年的梅雨季节好不容易过去了,原来已经是立秋了。虽然酷暑连日不断,但今天茅崎海岸的黄昏不知哪里秋意盎然。
