Christmas is before the winter solstice and after the winter solstice

Christmas falls on December 25th of the lunar calendar every year. The winter solstice changes to December 21st, 22nd or 23rd of the Gregorian calendar every year, so Christmas falls after the winter solstice.
Christmas is also known as the Christmas of Jesus and the Feast of the Nativity of the Lord. In Catholicism, it is also known as the Feast of the Nativity of Jesus. Translated as "Christ Mass", it originated from the Saturnalia, which was a festival held by the ancient Romans to welcome the new year, and has nothing to do with Christianity.
After Christianity became popular in the Roman Empire, the Vatican followed the trend and incorporated this folk festival into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
But Christmas is not Jesus' birthday, because the Bible does not record the specific day when Jesus was born, nor does it mention the existence of such a festival. This is the result of Christianity absorbing ancient Roman mythology.

Sacrificial Rituals

1. Place food, bowls, chopsticks, wine glasses, tea and other offerings on the graves of ancestors, and then light three incense sticks in front of the graves.
2. Pour the first glass of wine after lighting the incense. After about 30 minutes or half of the incense is burned, one person will light three incense sticks for the second time and pour the second glass of wine.
3. When the incense is half burned, place offerings to the land god who looks after the grave, and then burn a piece of yellow paper to protect the ancestors from harm.
4. When the three incense sticks have burned out, remove the offerings and leave a small amount of money and other belongings to be burned on other graves to prevent other ghosts from stealing money and clothes from the ancestral graves after the people who visited the graves leave.
Things to note <br /> 1. Do not play around, run around, or mess around around the cemetery. Doing so is not only impolite, but also disrespectful to the ancestors.
Second, it is not advisable to wear bright red or bright green clothes, and pregnant women, the sick, and children under 7 years old should not go to sweep the graves.
3. When offering sacrifices, people usually say what they are going to do at the grave, why they are doing it, and hope that the ancestors will bless them, and everything will go smoothly and be safe.
