Today is shosho (小暑), one of nijyushisekki (二十四節季), the 24 solar terms. The last one was geshi (夏至) on June 21 and the next one is taisho (大暑) on July 22.
Shosho (小暑) literally means small heat. Taisho (大暑) literally means big heat.
It was hot in the afternoon.
July 7 is known as tanabata (七夕), the seventh evening. It is a star festival. Two stars Vega and Altair are supposed to meet once a year across the Milky Way. In Japan there are festivals to decorate the bamboo trees with many oblong cards of wishes. What are your wishes?
