Spring Festival, that is The Lunar New Year, commonly known as the Chinese New Year, generally refers to New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month.

But among the people, the Spring Festival in the traditional sense refers to the period from the twelfth lunar month on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month or the twelfth lunar month on the 23rd or 24th day of the twelfth lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, of which New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month are the climax. The Spring Festival has a long history, originating from the activities of worshiping gods and ancestors at the beginning and end of the year during the Yin and Shang Dynasties.

During the Spring Festival, China's Han and many ethnic minorities hold various activities to celebrate. These activities mainly focus on offering sacrifices to gods and Buddhas, paying homage to ancestors, eradicating the old and bringing in the new, welcoming the new year and blessings, and praying for a good harvest.

The activities are rich and colorful with strong national characteristics. Pasting Spring Festival Couplets and Door Gods It is said that the custom of pasting Spring Festival couplets began in the Hou Shu period more than a thousand years ago, which is evidenced by history.

In addition, according to the records of "Jade Candle Collection", "Yanjing Chronicles" and other works, the original form of Spring Festival couplets is what people call "Peach Talisman". In ancient Chinese mythology, it is said that there is a world of ghosts. There is a mountain in it. There is a large peach tree covering three thousand miles on the mountain, and there is a golden rooster on the treetop.

Whenever the golden rooster crows in the morning, the ghosts who wander out at night will rush back to the ghost land. The gate of the ghost realm is located in the northeast of the peach tree. There are two gods standing by the gate, named Shen Tu and Yu Lei.

If a ghost does something harmful to nature at night, Shen Tu and Yu Lei will immediately discover it and catch it, tie it up with a rope made of awning reed, and send it to feed the tigers. Therefore, all the ghosts in the world are afraid of Shen Tu and Yu Lei.

So the people carved their images out of peach wood and placed them at their doorsteps to avoid evil and harm. Later, people simply engraved the names of Shen Tu and Yu Lei on peach boards, believing that doing so could also suppress evil and eliminate evil.

This kind of peach wood board was later called "Peach Run". Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong In the Song Dynasty, people began to write couplets on peach boards. One was to keep the meaning of peach wood to suppress evil, the other was to express their good wishes, and the third was to decorate the door for beauty.

Couplets are also written on red paper, which symbolizes joy and auspiciousness, and are pasted on both sides of the doors and windows during the New Year to express people's best wishes for good luck in the coming year. In order to pray for the good health of the family, people in some places still retain the habit of sticking to the door god.

It is said that if two door gods are posted on the door, all monsters and ghosts will be intimidated.

Among the people, the door god is a symbol of righteousness and force. The ancients believed that people with strange looks often have magical talents and extraordinary abilities.

They are upright and kind-hearted, and it is their nature and responsibility to catch ghosts and demons. Zhong Kui, the ghost-hunting master that people admire, has such a strange appearance. Therefore, the folk door gods always have angry eyes and ferocious looks, holding various traditional weapons in their hands, ready to fight any ghosts who dare to come to the door.

Since the doors of Chinese houses usually have two doors opening opposite each other, door gods always come in pairs. After the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the previous two generals Shen Tu and Yu Lei, people also regarded the two Tang Dynasty generals Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong as door gods.

According to legend, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was ill and heard ghosts calling outside the door, which kept him restless all night. So he asked the two generals to stand guard by the door with weapons in hand, and the next night there were no more ghosts to disturb him.

Later, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty asked people to draw the images of these two generals and paste them on the door. This custom began to spread among the people. The Legend of Taofu Taofu Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty wrote in the poem "Yuan Ri": "Every day, thousands of households always replace old talismans with new peaches."

Describes the brightness of the first day. The words "peach" and "talisman" in the poem are intertextual, which means that the old peach charms are always replaced by new peach charms - removing the old and replacing the old with the new.

There is a beautiful legend about Taofu. A long time ago, there was a beautiful peach forest on Dushuo Mountain in the East China Sea. There was a huge peach tree with luxuriant branches and leaves that stretched for three thousand miles. The peaches were big and sweet. People ate the peaches from this tree. Peaches can become gods.

One dark night, a ghost with a green face and fangs, red hair and green eyes wanted to steal the fairy peach. The two brothers Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the owners of the peach forest, used peach branches to defeat the ghosts and tied them with straw ropes to feed the tigers watching the mountain.

From then on, the names of the two brothers made ghosts fear them, and after their death, they became gods who specialized in punishing evil spirits. In later generations, people used peach boards one inch wide and seven or eight inches long to draw images of the two gods Shen Tu and Yu Lei and hang them on both sides of their doors to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. This kind of peach boards were called "Peach Talisman".

With the changes of the times, the peach charms themselves are also changing. Later, people wrote the names of the two gods on the peach charms instead of portraits. Later, it developed into "inscribing peach charms", that is, the number of characters is equal. Short poems with symmetrical structures and corresponding meanings were inscribed on peach charms. This is the predecessor of Spring Festival couplets. Ancient New Year's Cards The New Year's cards popular in modern society have been implemented in ancient my country.

As early as the Song Dynasty, the families and relatives of the royal family, nobles, scholar-bureaucrats, and relatives had used special New Year greeting cards, called "Ming Ci" or "Ming Tie". It is to cut plum blossom paper into cards about two inches wide and three inches long, and write your name and address on them.

A red paper bag is stuck on the door of each house, called a "door book", with the owner's name written on it to receive name tattoos (name stickers). Worshipers put their name tattoos (name stickers) on the door book to express their New Year greetings.

Its meaning is the same as that of modern New Year cards. The 23rd and 24th of the twelfth lunar month are the days for worshiping the Kitchen God (16 photos). The 23rd or 24th of the twelfth lunar month is also called "Little New Year" and is a day for folk to worship the stove. In the folk song "Twenty-three, Tanggua Guang" refers to the sacrifice to the stove on the 23rd or 24th of the twelfth lunar month every year.

There is a saying that "officials, three people, four boat owners and five people", that is, the government holds sacrifices to the stove on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, ordinary people on the 24th, and people on the water hold stove sacrifices on the 25th. Xiaonian is the beginning and foreshadowing of the entire Spring Festival celebration, and its main activities include two: sweeping the New Year and offering sacrifices to the stove.

In addition, there is also the custom of eating stove sweets. In some places, they also eat fire roasting, sugar cakes, oil cakes, and tofu soup. Sacrifice to the stove Sacrifice to the stove is a custom that has great influence among Chinese people and is widely spread.

In the old days, almost every kitchen had a "Kitchen Lord" statue. People call this god "Si Ming Bodhisattva" or "Zao Lord Siming". Legend has it that he is the "Jiutian East Chef Siming Zao Wangfu Lord" conferred by the Jade Emperor. He is responsible for managing the kitchen fires of each family and is regarded as the protector of the family. worship.

Most of the Kitchen King's niches are located on the north or east side of the kitchen room, with the statue of the Kitchen King in the middle. Some people who don't have a niche for the Kitchen King stick the statue of the god directly on the wall.

Some statues only depict the Kitchen God alone, while others include two men and women. The goddess is called "Grandma Kitchen God". The sacrifice to the stove on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is closely related to the Chinese New Year.

Because, in a week.
