Today
Waxing Moon Twenty-Three
It is a "small year" of the northern tradition.
Part of the southern region
Tomorrow will also usher in the "little year"
Because of different customs and traditions
All over the country
"Little year" has different concepts and dates
However, it varies a lot
The strong New Year flavor is the same
Remember the words "little year"
I felt joyful and warm
Let's elaborate
The history of the 24th of the Waxing Moon is even longer
Southern Song Dynasty poet Fan Chengda's "Sacrifice Stove Words"
There is such a description:
"According to ancient legend, on the twenty-fourth day of the month of La, the king of the stove wanted to say something to the heavens.
The cloud car wind horse small stay, the family has cups and plates of abundant ceremonies. ”
And about the twenty-third lunar month in the north
There is a saying that it is
The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty wanted to save money
At the same time as the sacrifice of the fire god on the twenty-third day of the waxing moon
Also worshipped to the god Vesta
The people are affected
Over time, new customs were formed
There is also a long-standing saying:
"Officials, three people, four boats, five"
It is about a small time in ancient times
The house of the eunuchs is the twenty-third day of the month
Ordinary people wax the twenty-fourth month
Water boat home Wax twenty-fifth month
The north, on the other hand, was greatly influenced by the "official three"
Gradually adjusted the small time schedule
All kinds of legends
Many are no longer available
But people are serious about the little year
Continue
"Little year" is not "small" at all
It was from this day that it started
Our busyness and joy
It was officially switched in
"Spring Festival Time"
The Small Year is the day of the sacrifice stove
"Stove, maker, food also"
In folklore
The Stove King can say so
The god who has the closest relationship with ordinary people
He is in charge of the stove and manages the diet
On behalf of the Jade Emperor, he also examined the good and evil in the world
In order to make the stove king
"Heaven speaks well, the Netherworld keeps peace"
Little year on this day
Every household pays homage to the stove
Arrange the offerings and serve the stove sugar
So that the Stove King can return to heaven smoothly and smoothly
Say more good things when reporting on work
Pray for peace and auspiciousness for the coming year
With the times change
The ritual of offering stoves is rare anymore
however
That mouthful of sweetness
But it has been passed down for a long time
Sugar melon is sweet and delicious
Kanto sugar is hard and crispy
For today's kids
All kinds of candy are no longer fresh
However, there is only this mouth at the New Year's Day
The most authentic and tasteful
Except for the sacrificial stove
There are still many things to be busy on this day of the new year
Dust sweeping is an essential one
Put the corners and corners of the house that have not been cleaned for a year
Come on a thorough clean-up
Pour out the dust
It is also to clear the unpleasantness of the past year
"Have money and no money, shave your head for the New Year"
Whether it's adults or children
Bathe and get a haircut on this day
For that's it
Fresh and refreshing to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new
I'm afraid Chinese New Year's Eve's blessings are too much
You won't care about my greetings
I was afraid that the first day of the first year of the meal was too fragrant
You won't see my message
So choose this time
Give you an early year!
Whether it's choosing to stay where you are
Or go home for the New Year
May you have been busy with life for a whole year
Peace and prosperity, all things are victorious
This Spring Festival
How are you going to live?
Leave a message to talk about it
(Anyway, Xiaobian is on the spot for the New Year, insisting on duty.)
Don't ask, ask is dedicated and excellent! ）
