This kanji character,"Keichitsu", is pronounced like "Kay Ti Two", which imply a signal for spring coming.During winter, all worms, insects sleep under ground but once they catch the hint of becoming warm, they will get up and out from underneath.
As a human being, yes, you can see many plants flowering around your home and know spring is coming. Amazingly, small worms can know it coming as well.
Even if there is more cold weather hanging around, spring certainly is coming near you.
When I hear this word on TV news program in Japan, I used to feel the season changing.
Today, 5th of March, is "Keichitsu" in Japan.
Now I see snowdrops flowering and crocus has started flowering around my home in UK.
Spring is coming in England, too.
Yes as worms do, you sense it and need to get up and out for --- holidays!!!
