*****************************
Explanation

In the category SEASON,
we have to consider the problems with the Asian lunar calendar and the changes to our modern times with respect to the names of months.

three hottest ka-no-e "metal" days of summer


the third day of Ka no e 庚(かのえ)の日 after the summer solstice is
shofuku 初伏(しょふく) first ka-no-e day

the fourth day of Ka no e 庚(かのえ)の日 after the summer solstice is
chuufuku 中伏(ちゅうふく) middle ka-no-e day

the last day of Ka no e 庚(かのえ)の日 after the summer solstice is
mappuku 末伏(まっぷく) last ka-no-e day


ka-no-e, the elder brother of metal. Metal will be melted by heat
(火剋金), so these three days are unlucky.
The acutal days may differ according to ancient lore, usually the third and fourth ka-no-e day after the summer solstice and the first of autumn are counted.

On these days, you should not sow seeds or plant, have no treatment, do not go on a trip and have no sex.

These three days are somewhere during the end of july, beginning of august, in the hottest time of the year.
The Chinese characters 三伏の猛暑 are used when writing a letter of sympathy to someone on these days.

If there is not specific mention, a calendar reference kigo refers to the Northern Hemisphere as its place of origin, since haiku and the saijiki concept originates in Japan.
For the Southern Hemisphere, add six months.
For a calendar reference kigo originating in the Southern Hemisphere, add six months to get to its Northern counterpart.
