Introduction: Generally speaking, an auspicious day needs to be chosen for funerals, because funerals are also one of the important matters. So [is it not suitable to hold funerals on the day before the winter solstice in 2020? Does the number of nine days start on the winter solstice?] Follow the editor to find out! "The Book of Rites: Monthly Ordinances" says: "The month of mid-winter is called Changyue." "Chang means full." Therefore, the eleventh month of the lunar calendar is also called Changyue. In this November of the lunar calendar 2020, Mr. Shui Mo will spend a happy month with you.Is it not appropriate to hold a funeral on the day before the winter solstice in 2020?Lunar calendar: November 6, 2020 Gregorian calendar: December 20, 2020, Sunday, Sagittarius - Suitable for today ( day of four departures ) : marry, move, collect money, build stoves, fast and offer sacrifices, seek money, open warehouses, catch crops, plant and go to school - Unsuitable for today ( day of four departures ) : repair graves, bury beds, cut wood, raise beams, collect livestock, offer sacrifices, pray for blessings, build houses, build bridges, build embankments, break ground, hold funerals, collect betrothal gifts, move into houses, start drilling, travel, meridians and open markets——According to the old almanac, since this day is an unlucky day among the four separated days, it is not suitable to hold a funeral on the day before the winter solstice in 2020! Does the count of nine days begin when the winter solstice falls?People start counting the nine-day period when the winter solstice comes, which is what they call "counting the nine-day period in advance". However, "counting the nine-day period" does not start from the day of the winter solstice or the next day.The winter solstice falls on the day of Ren Jiu. According to the Heavenly Stems calendar, the winter solstice falls on the day of Ren Jiu, which means that the first day after the winter solstice is the first day of the nine-day period. In ancient my country, years, months, dates and times were recorded in order of the combination of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. For example, December 21, 2012 was the Bingchen day of the Renchen year, Renzi month, and so on in the lunar calendar. Therefore, the first Ren day after this day would be the first day of the nineteenth day, which means that December 27, 2012 was the Renxu day. Counting 9 days is the first nine days, counting another 9 days is the second nine days... When you count to "nine nines", the "nine" is over, and "when nine nines are over, the willow flowers bloom", and the weather will be warm. ——Therefore, the nine cold days begin on the day of Ren on the winter solstice. The winter solstice in 2020 is on December 21, and the first Ren day after the winter solstice is December 25 (Renyin day). Therefore, the nine cold days of 2020-2021 begin on December 25. Winter Solstice Customs: Eating Wontons In the past, there was a saying in old Beijing that “eat wontons at the winter solstice and noodles at the summer solstice”. According to legend, during the Han Dynasty, the Huns in the north often harassed the border and the people lived in unrest. At that time, there were two leaders in the Xiongnu tribe, Hun and Tun, who were extremely cruel. The people hated him so much that they wrapped meat filling into triangles and called them "wontons" by combining the sounds of "hun" and "tun" in Chinese. I hate to eat it, and I pray that the war will be quelled so that we can live in peace. Since wontons were first made on the day of the winter solstice, every household eats wontons on this day.
