What are the customs and habits during Jingzhe?1. Eat pearsThere is a folk custom of eating pears during the Waking of Insects. Legend has it that the Qu family, a well-known Shanxi merchant family, was descended from Qu Ji, a native of Changzi County, Shangdang. In the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, he brought his two sons, Xin and Yi, and traded Shangdang's Lu hemp and pears for Qi County's coarse cloth and red dates. He traveled back and forth between the two places to make a profit. Over time, he saved some money and settled down in Qi County. During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, the fourteenth generation Qu Baichuan left for the west on the day of Jingzhe. His father took out a pear and asked him to eat it, saying that his ancestors started a business by selling pears, experienced hardships, and settled in Qi County. Today is the Jingzhe day for you to leave for the west, and eating pears means that you will not forget your ancestors and work hard to start a business to bring honor to your family. Qu Baichuan went to the west to do business and became rich, and named the business he opened "Changyuanhou". Later, those who went west also followed suit and ate pears, mostly with the intention of "leaving home to start a business." Even later, pears were eaten on the Waking of Insects Day, with the idea of "working hard to honor ancestors." 2. White Tiger Sacrifice According to folklore, the White Tiger is the god of gossip and right and wrong. Every year, it comes out on this day to hunt for food and bite people. If you offend this, you will be bullied by evil people throughout the year, and your future development will be hindered, causing you all kinds of misfortunes. In order to protect themselves, people offered sacrifices to the White Tiger on the day of Jingzhe. The so-called white tiger sacrifice refers to the worship of a white tiger drawn on paper. The paper tiger is usually yellow with black stripes, and has a pair of fangs painted on the corners of its mouth. During worship, the paper tiger is fed with fat pig blood so that after it is full it will not speak ill of others. Then raw pork is smeared on the mouth of the paper tiger so that it is filled with oil and water and it cannot open its mouth to speak ill of others. 3. Drum skin The Waking of Insects is caused by thunder. The ancients imagined that the God of Thunder was a great god with a bird's beak, a human body and wings. The Thunder God holds a hammer in one hand and strikes the many heavenly drums surrounding him with the other, making a rumbling thunderous sound. So on the day of Jingzhe, the god of thunder beats the celestial drum in heaven, and people on earth take advantage of this opportunity to cover the drum skin. In the "Zhou Li" Volume 40 "Hui Ren" it says: "All the beating of drums must be on the day of the awakening of hibernation." Note: "The awakening of hibernation is the first month of spring, when hibernating insects begin to move upon hearing thunder; drum is the symbol; and mao means covering the drum with leather." It can be seen that not only the ecology of insects is in harmony with the movement of the four seasons, but humans, the most intelligent creatures on earth, must also follow the will of heaven so that everything can be done with twice the result with half the effort. 4. Beat the villain The Waking of Insects is like a thunderclap out of the blue, awakening all the hibernating snakes, insects, rats and ants. The reptiles and ants in the house will respond and start looking for food everywhere. Therefore, in ancient times, on the day of Jingzhe, people would hold fragrant incense and mugwort and fumigate the four corners of their homes to use the fragrance to drive away snakes, insects, mosquitoes, rats and musty smells. Over time, this gradually evolved into a habit of those who were unhappy slapping their opponents and driving away bad luck, which is the predecessor of "beating the villain". "Qian Jin Yue Ling" said: "On the day of Jingzhe, take lime and sprinkle it outside the door threshold to kill insects and ants." Lime has the effect of killing insects. On the day of Jingzhe, it is sprinkled outside the door threshold. It is believed that insects and ants will not dare to come to the house for a year. This is the same as shaking clothes when hearing thunder. Both are to give insects a warning when they come out of hibernation, in the hope that pests will not come to harass you.
