惊蛰是二十四节气中的第三个节气,通常在每年公历3月5-6日交节,此时太阳到达黄经345度。惊蛰的名称由"惊"和"蛰"两字组成,"蛰"是指冬眠的动物,"惊"是被惊醒的意思,故名惊蛰。古称"启蛰",西汉时为了避汉景帝刘启的讳,改为"惊蛰"。惊蛰时节,春雷始鸣,气温回升,春意渐浓,蛰虫惊醒,冬眠的动物开始苏醒出土活动,大地万物开始萌动,进入春耕季节。惊蛰反映的是自然界生物受节律变化影响而萌发生长的现象,是一个能够反映自然物候的节气。

Awakening of Insects (Jingzhe) is the third solar term of the 24 solar terms, occurring around March 5-6 when the sun reaches 345 degrees celestial longitude. The name combines "Jing" (惊, meaning to startle or awaken) and "Zhe" (蛰, referring to hibernating animals). The name was originally "Qizhe" (Initiation of Hibernation) but was changed to "Jingzhe" during the Western Han Dynasty to avoid Emperor Jing's name taboo. During Awakening of Insects, spring thunder begins to sound, temperatures rise, spring vitality intensifies, hibernating insects awaken, and winter-dormant animals begin emerging from underground and resuming activity. All things on earth start stirring, and the spring plowing season begins. Awakening of Insects reflects how natural organisms are influenced by seasonal rhythm changes, exhibiting germination and growth phenomena, making it a solar term that truly reflects natural phenology.
