Winter 立冬 begins November 8, 2023, according to the 24 Solar Terms calendar. This is the 19th Solar Term of the year. The next one, Light Snow, starts November 22. Obviously, winter conditions start at different times depending on geography and the year itself. Each region of China has its own ancestral way of celebrating the Start of Winter through different nourishing foods. Dumplings is a favourite.
The season of Winter is governed by the Water Element in Chinese philosophy and cosmology. The organ pair in focus this time of the year is Kidney and Bladder. If you experience imbalance in these energetic and physical organs, supporting them now can have an important impact. The attitude related to Kidney and Bladder energies is fear according to Chinese philosophy and Jin Shin Jyutsu. This attitude “sticks” when there is an imbalance.
