Analysis of the ten major customs of the Great Cold solar termAs the last solar term in the last month of "La Yue", although it is the slack season for farmers, every family is "busy" - busy preparing for the New Year. This is the custom of "welcoming the New Year with the Great Cold". The so-called "welcoming the New Year with the Great Cold" means that during the period from the Great Cold to the Lunar New Year, there will be a series of activities among the people. In summary, there are at least ten major customs, namely: "eating glutinous rice", "drinking", "making teeth", "sweeping the dust", "pasting windows", "steaming offerings", "rushing to get married", "going to the market", and "bathing". "Eating glutinous rice" means that on the day of the Great Cold, it was popular among ancient people to eat food made from glutinous rice. "Drinking to one's heart's content" means feasting and drinking to one's heart's content. Cai Yong's work "Duduan" in the Eastern Han Dynasty included the following: "La is the grand sacrifice at the end of the year, when officials are allowed to feast and drink." "Dust removal" , also known as "removing the old" and "beating the dust", means general cleaning: "Every family paints the walls to sweep away the bad luck" and to get rid of bad luck; on the contrary, "if you don't remove dust in the twelfth lunar month, you will attract the plague god in the coming year." Dust removal is usually carried out on the 23rd and 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is the day of "worshiping the kitchen god". When dusting, you should avoid talking and pay attention to "making money in silence." "Pasting windows" means pasting windows with new paper. "Pasting windows brings good luck." For the sake of beauty, some families will cut some auspicious patterns and paste them on the windows, so it is also called "pasting window flowers", which is usually done on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month. "Steaming offering" means preparing offerings for sacrifice. In the past, cakes and steamed buns used for offerings were all steamed with flour, hence the name. " Rushing to get married" . Superstition says that at the end of December, the gods go to heaven to "report on their work for the year". At this time, there are no taboos in the world. There is no need to pick a date for marriage at this time, and it is also the slack season for farming. Therefore, the folk scene in the old days was "busy weddings in the countryside at the end of the year". "Going to the market" refers to the traditional New Year market where people go to buy supplies for the La Festival and prepare New Year goods. "Bath" has the same purpose as "dust removal", which is to maintain good personal hygiene, implying washing away a year's worries and bad luck. So no matter how busy you are at the end of the year, you have to get a haircut and take a bath. As the old saying goes, "Whether you have money or not, you can take a bath during the New Year." There are still many customs of "welcoming the New Year on the Great Cold Day", which vary from place to place, but the theme basically revolves around "sacrifice", and some of these customs still exist. Why is this happening? The entry on "La" included in Han Dynasty's Customs and Meanings by Ying Shao explains it very clearly: "La means hunting, which means hunting animals in the fields to sacrifice to their ancestors. Some say: La means connection, the connection between the new and the old, so a grand sacrifice is held to reward the merits." The twelfth month of the lunar calendar when the Great Cold falls is called "La Yue", and its earliest source is here - the month of sacrifice. Therefore, offering sacrifices was the most important and necessary thing for the ancients after the Great Cold solar term. Collection of Explanations of the 72 Solar Terms in the Lunar Calendar - Great Cold In Yuan Wu Cheng's work "Collected Explanations of the 72 Solar Terms in the Lunar Calendar", it says: "In the middle of December, the explanation is as above (Minor Cold)." "Shushi Tongkao·Tianshi" quotes "Three Rituals Meaning": "Great Cold is the middle one, above Minor Cold, so it is called Great...The coldest air is at its extreme, so it is called Great Cold."
