What is the saying about climbing mountains on Double Ninth Festival?

01. In ancient times, people worshipped mountains, which led to the custom of climbing mountains to pray for blessings. Dai Sheng of the Western Han Dynasty wrote in "Book of Rites: Sacrifices": "Mountains, forests, rivers, valleys, and hills that can produce clouds, wind and rain, and monsters are all called gods." Documents show that the ancients were both awed and worshipful of mountains. The custom of "climbing mountains to pray for blessings" was popular as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In the Western Han Dynasty, "Chang'an Records" recorded that people in the capital of the Han Dynasty went out to enjoy the scenery on September 9th.
02. According to the laws of the movement of the sun and the moon, the climate on the Double Ninth Festival is "clear air rises and turbid air sinks". The higher the terrain, the more clear air gathers. Therefore, "climbing high places to enjoy the clear air on the Double Ninth Festival" has become an important folk custom that people compete to participate in.
03. The saying of “saying goodbye to the green” when climbing a high place comes from the solar terms in nature. The Double Ninth Festival is an autumn festival. After the festival, the weather gradually gets cooler and the grass and trees begin to wither. Climbing mountains on the Double Ninth Festival to "bid farewell to the green" corresponds to the spring outings in March in ancient times.
04. The background of the mythical legend of climbing high to avoid disasters on the Double Ninth Festival took place in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Legend has it that at that time there was a sorcerer named Huan Jing in Runan (now southwest of Shangcai, Henan) who believed that plague would come on this day and people had to leave their homes and go to as high a place as possible to be safe. The absurd story of Huan Jing climbing up to a high place to avoid disaster on September 9th can be found in the mythological and strange novel "Continued Records of the Strange Things of Qi" by Wu Jun of the Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties.
