72 Seasons

Facing the severest cold of the year, the sight of people huddling up as they walk becomes apparent. These words express the warmth that emerges from the depths of the earth, gradually setting frozen springs in motion. While it is not yet visible, the natural world is beginning to stir and prepare to welcome spring. The name of this season gives a sense of the keenly observant eyes of our ancestors.
