How to use Clear and Bright in MingSez
A solar term is not a prediction. It is a timing lens. In MingSez, Clear and Bright helps users notice whether the season is asking for beginning, softening, activation, balance, refinement, storage, or return. That seasonal lens can then connect to Daily Ming and the public Almanac reading for a selected date.
MingSez use
Use this term as seasonal background for Daily Ming and the Chinese Almanac. It gives the date a climate and pace before any personal reading is added.
