The 24 Solar Terms- Chinese Beauties

The solar terms mark 24 evenly-spaced points in the Chinese solar calendar. Starting from the Spring Equinox (at 0° longitude, when the sun is directly above the equator), each 15° advance of the sun along the ecliptic marks a solar term. Solar terms are traditionally used to help farmers determine when to plant and harvest crops according to changes in the weather. 

I designed and drew these beauties based on Chinese traditional tales. The names of the solar terms are also in their character.   It's like the 24 goddess bring us those solar terms and make time keep moving.
