The first star , “Saad Al-Dahbih,” which is known as the poison scorpion; Because its cold can be fatal.
The second star , “Saad Balaa,” known as the blood scorpion; Because of its cold, it causes injury and bleeding, but does not kill.
The third star , “Saad Al-Saud,” known as the Fat Scorpion; Because it works to dissolve fats inside the waters.

The fat scorpion is the last season of winter

It is expected that the season of the fat scorpion will begin on March 4 , also known as (Bayaa Al-Khabal Abatah) , which is one of the last scorpion stars, and will last for 13 days.

The fat scorpion season was given this name due to the livestock carrying fat coinciding with the arrival of spring.

This season is also known as “the cold of Al-Hasum” among the Arabs, “the cold of the old woman” among the people of the desert, and “the cold of the shula” among the people of Hijaz.

Will we bid farewell to the cold of winter with the arrival of the fat scorpion season?

According to popular tradition, the most important features that characterize the atmosphere during this period of the year, which comes at the end of the winter season, are when the temperature rises, and many expect the beginning of the spring season, but the cold strikes them again, so the winter season does not end with the arrival of this period.
