The Double Ninth Festival in 2020 is on October 25, Sunday, so there is a holiday for this year's Double Ninth Festival, but it is a holiday because the Double Ninth Festival happens to fall on a normal holiday.The name "Double Ninth Festival" comes from the "Yang Yao is Nine" in the ancient book "Book of Changes". In the "Book of Changes", "six" is defined as a yin number, and "nine" is defined as a yang number, also known as the "extreme number", referring to the height of the sky as the "nine layers". "Nine" is the old yang, the number of positive pole. When two positive pole numbers are added together, nine times nine return to one, and a new year begins, with all things renewed. Therefore, the ancients believed that Double Ninth Festival was an auspicious day worthy of celebration. In ancient times, there was a custom of holding banquets to pray for longevity. On the ninth day of the ninth month, both the sun and the moon are nine, which is called "double nine", so it is called "Double Ninth". At the same time, it is two yang numbers combined, so it is called "Double Ninth". In the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Dai wrote in "Night Boat": "Nine is a yang number, and the day and the month correspond together, so it is called "Double Ninth Festival".

The main feature of the Double Ninth Festival among the people is flying kites.The Guangxu "Huizhou Prefecture Records" also recorded this. In folk tradition, in addition to climbing mountains, flying kites is also a special feature of the Double Ninth Festival. As for why people fly kites during the Double Ninth Festival, in addition to the climatic reasons that the sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is light and the sun is bright, so kites can easily fly up with the wind, there are also some other explanations that are quite interesting. Legend has it that flying kites during the Double Ninth Festival is to "get rid of bad luck" . The higher and farther the kite flies, the farther the bad luck will fly away with it. Some people even deliberately cut the string to make the kite disappear into the sky. Another explanation is that flying kites on the Double Ninth Festival is to "release good luck" and "release blessings". The better the kite flies, the greater the blessing . The kite flyer must not only not break the silk thread, but also do everything possible to protect it, because if the silk thread breaks, the "good luck" and "blessings" will also float away.
