What are the important festivals or anniversaries in December?
1. December 20 Anniversary of Macao’s Return to China
The winter solstice is a very important solar term in our country's lunar calendar, and it is also a traditional festival. There are still many places that still have the custom of celebrating the winter solstice. Winter Solstice is commonly known as "Winter Festival", "Long Solstice Festival", "Yasui", etc. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,500 years ago, our country had used Tugui to observe the sun to determine the winter solstice. It was the earliest formula among the twenty-four solar terms. The time is between December 22 or 23 of the Gregorian calendar every year.
Heavy snow: Heavy snow is the 21st solar term among the 24 solar terms. It enters the solar term from December 6 to 8 in the Gregorian calendar, when the sun reaches 255° of ecliptic longitude. The arrival of heavy snow in the solar term means that the weather will get colder and colder, and the possibility of snow will greatly increase. Heavy snow, like light snow, rain, Guyu and other solar terms, are all solar terms that directly reflect precipitation. "The Collection of Seventy-Two Hours of the Moon Order" says: "Heavy snow falls in November, and the snow is abundant at this time." Heavy snow means that the possibility of snowfall is greater than that of light snow, the weather is colder, and the snow tends to fall heavily. The scope is also wide. Due to global warming, the amount of snowfall in southern my country is relatively small, while in the north it has been covered in ice for thousands of miles.
World AIDS Day – December 1
The World Health Organization designates December 1 of each year as World AIDS Day because the first AIDS case was diagnosed on December 1, 1981. The concept was introduced by global health ministers at a summit meeting on HIV prevention programmes. Since then, the concept has been adopted by governments, international organizations and charities around the world.
At the same time, considering that my country has entered winter on December 2 every year, it is a period where traffic accidents are prone to occur. Road traffic travel and transportation peaks such as Spring Festival Transport are also about to begin. Organizing and carrying out nationwide road traffic safety themed publicity activities at this time node is conducive to the prevention of road traffic accidents to ensure the travel safety of the general public.
The International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3 is an annual event that aims to promote understanding of disability issues and mobilize support for the dignity, rights and well-being of people with disabilities. From October 12 to 13, 1992, the 47th United Nations General Assembly held the first special session on the issue of persons with disabilities since the establishment of the United Nations. The General Assembly passed a resolution to designate December 3 of each year as the "International Day for Persons with Disabilities".
