Let’s take a look at the following content!Which month and day of the lunar calendar is the Double Ninth Festival?The Double Ninth Festival on September 9, 2021 is on Thursday, October 14, 2021 in the Gregorian calendar, the day of Yiwei in the month of Wuxu in the year of Xinchou [Year of the Ox].Introduction to the customs of the Double Ninth Festival: 1. 9-day mountaineering One is Wang Wei's "I know my brothers are climbing high places from afar", and the other is Li Bai's "Climbing the Mountain on the Ninth Day", which shows that climbing high is one of the customs of the Double Ninth Festival. On the Double Ninth Festival, the weather is clear and cool in autumn, and climbing high can make people feel relaxed and happy, and keep healthy and cure diseases. 2. Drunken Chant on the 9th Day The so-called Jiu Ri Huang Hua Wine refers to chrysanthemum wine. In the ninth month of the lunar calendar, chrysanthemums are in full bloom, so September is also called the Chrysanthemum Month. Chrysanthemum symbolizes longevity, and chrysanthemum wine means "auspicious wine". There is a traditional custom of appreciating chrysanthemums and drinking chrysanthemum wine on the Double Ninth Festival, so the Double Ninth Festival is also called the "Chrysanthemum Festival". Gathering to drink, appreciate chrysanthemums and write poems on the Double Ninth Festival has long become a fashion. 3. Wear Cornus officinalis That’s why Wang Wei wrote in his poem: There’s one less person wearing dogwood branches. This is because in ancient times, inserting dogwood was a custom of the Double Ninth Festival, therefore the Double Ninth Festival is also called the Dogwood Festival. Cornus officinalis is a plant with a special smell. It has the effects of repelling insects, removing dampness, and expelling wind evil. It can be used as medicine, can eliminate food stagnation, and treat cold and heat. Therefore, the ancients wore dogwood on the Double Ninth Festival in the hope of warding off evil and bringing good luck. Therefore, it is also called "the evil-repelling old man". 4. Eat Chongyang Cake Climbing heights on the Double Ninth Festival is also related to eating Chongyang cake, as "高" and "糕" are homophones, so people climb heights and eat Chongyang cake on the Double Ninth Festival.
