As the New Year's bell rings, we usher in the traditional Chinese New Year. On this special occasion, we not only celebrate the arrival of the New Year, but also inherit the rich traditional culture. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, we have some traditional customs to observe to ensure a safe and healthy Year of the Dragon.
One does not worship: does not worship the New Year
In the traditional Spring Festival customs, New Year's greetings are an important activity. But on the third day of the Lunar New Year, we should avoid New Year's greetings. This is because on this day we need to rest at home, adjust our bodies and minds, and prepare ourselves for the struggles of the new year. Of course, if you have to visit relatives and friends, be sure to express your sincere wishes and hang a red cloth or lantern at the door as a sign of respect.
2. Don't eat: Don't eat meat
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, we need to pay attention to our diet. First of all, avoid eating meaty foods, such as meat, seafood, etc. This is because on this day we need to maintain a light taste to reduce the burden on the stomach and intestines, while also aiding digestion and absorption. In addition, we can also choose some light vegetables and fruits, such as greens, turnips, apples, etc., to supplement nutrition.
Three don'ts: don't stay up late
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, we need to maintain a good routine. Avoid staying up late and get enough sleep. This is because in the new year, we need to be energetic to meet new challenges. At the same time, maintaining a good routine also contributes to good health and longevity.
In addition to the above three traditional customs, we can also do some other activities on the third day of the Lunar New Year, such as ancestor worship, prayer, flower lantern viewing, etc. These activities not only allow us to feel the charm of traditional culture, but also help to strengthen family harmony and community cohesion.
Tomorrow, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, we must keep in mind the old tradition of "1 do not worship, 2 do not eat, and 3 do not do", and wish everyone a safe and healthy Year of the Dragon! At this special moment, let us inherit and carry forward the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation and pray for the blessings of the new year. May we all have good health, successful careers and happy families in the new year!
