——According to the old almanac, the auspicious position of the God of Wealth on the second day of the Lunar New Year in 2021 is in the south direction. The second day of the first lunar month is the day for old Beijingers to worship the God of Wealth. On this day, people would rush to the Temple of the God of Wealth to burn the "first stick of incense". There are two temples of the God of Wealth in old Beijing. One is at Liuli Bridge outside Guang'anmen, called the "Wuxian God of Wealth Temple". A temple fair is held from the second to the sixteenth day of the first lunar month every year, so the second day becomes the day to worship the God of Wealth. But in fact, according to legend, the God of Wealth's birthday is the fifth day.
In the past, pilgrims would wait outside the temple and at the Guang'an Gate in the middle of the night in order to get the first incense stick.
After the incense burning is finished, you also have to "invite" some red velvet flowers with the words "Fu" and "Shou" written on them, gold-cut paper flowers, gold ingots, etc. from the Temple of the God of Wealth to take home. This means inviting "Fu" home. If one gets rich in the next year, one has to go to the temple again to fulfill a wish, return the paper gold ingots that were "invited" home to the temple, and buy double the amount of new paper gold ingots. The temple keeper will also get rich because of this. Because there are too many people coming to burn incense on the second day of the Lunar New Year every year, many people cannot enter, so they light incense at the temple gate and throw it into the temple. This poses a hidden danger to fire protection, so the temple uses large wooden barrels to hold water, ready to pour water to put out fires at any time. Whoever is splashed with water is believed to become rich in the coming year, because "water" brings wealth. The "Wuxian God of Wealth Temple" temple fair was discontinued in the 1950s. The temple was demolished when the overpass was built in 1987. Today, there are two ancient trees as the only remaining relics of the temple. Another temple of the God of Wealth in Beijing is the "Huangwa God of Wealth Temple", located on the east side of the south entrance of Beiluoguxiang. The temple was first built in the late Ming Dynasty. The God of Wealth is divided into civil and military gods, Zhao Gongming. In 2005, as part of the Gulou East Street style protection and environmental improvement project, non-cultural heritage buildings around the Temple of the God of Wealth were demolished, the main hall was exposed, and renovations were carried out. In addition to these two temples of the God of Wealth, Beijing also has a Zhurong Temple. Because fire represents wealth, some people also come here to pray for wealth on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
