How to worship the God of Heaven on the ninth day of the first lunar month in 2020?

1. Offerings required for worshipping the God of Heaven:
1. On the night before "Bai Tian Gong", a square octagonal table should be set up with a table decoration tied on the front.
Because the God of Heaven is supreme, two piano chairs (called God of Heaven chairs) are placed under the Eight Immortals Table to prop up the table.
2. The offerings for worshiping the God of Heaven include five kinds of fruits, six kinds of vegetarian food, rice, liquor, a whole pig, a whole sheep, a rooster, etc. Generally, three kinds of animals (pig, cow, sheep) are chosen, or chicken can be used to replace one of them. In addition, flowers, fruits, dried persimmons, dried longans, red dates, etc. are also necessary items.
2. Time and process of worshipping the God of Heaven in Quanzhou:
1. The "worship of the God of Heaven" in Quanzhou usually starts in the early morning of the ninth day of the Lunar New Year.
2. At this time, every household will start to set off firecrackers and light red candles in the hall, which are called "God Lanterns";
Then, the elders lead the whole family to kneel in front of the table and burn incense in order of seniority. They perform the ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows, praying for good fortune, family safety, and a prosperous career in the new year. The ceremony usually lasts until about five in the morning of the ninth day.
The most traditional ceremony during worship is: opening the door, dressing neatly, burning incense in order of age, and performing the three kneeling and nine kowtows ceremony. Modern believers usually only burn incense and pray.
3. When the worship is completed, burn the gold paper first, then burn the Tiangong seat together, and then remove the offering table.
When worshiping the God of Heaven, people also burn a kind of red paper called "fortune-making slip" with the birth dates of all family members written on it to bless the family with safety.

What does "Seventh day, no go out; Eighth day, no return; Nine day, work" mean?

The ancient Chinese people believed that nine represented the majority, the most, and the biggest number, and therefore it was the best. This day is also known as "Tianri". Legend has it that it is the birthday of the Jade Emperor and must be celebrated with great ceremony. "Nine" is homophonic with "wine", so nine cannot be separated from wine. Every household prepares a sumptuous banquet, drinks to their heart's content and wishes the Jade Emperor a happy birthday.
In the old days, on this night, men and women would gather under a big tree (preferably an osmanthus tree) to sing, inviting the Jade Emperor's favorite youngest daughter, the Seventh Fairy, to come down to earth. The songs they sang had to be joyful and auspicious to make the Seventh Fairy happy. Once she was happy, her father, the Jade Emperor, would bless the world with everything going well.
The Tujia people in Enshi also believe that getting things done on the ninth day will achieve twice the result with half the effort, so there is a saying that goes "Don't go out on the seventh, don't come back on the eighth, and you will get a lot of things done on the ninth day."
“Don’t go out on the seventh day” means don’t go out to do business or get things done on the seventh day of the first lunar month. Otherwise, you won’t be able to do it well or get anything done.
“Don’t return on the eighth day” means that people who are away from home should not go home on this day. “Return” means completion, and “eight” means prosperity. If something is supposed to be prosperous, it should not have the meaning of completion.
"A lot of things can be done on the ninth day of the ninth month" means that if you do things on this day, you will be blessed by the Jade Emperor and not only will your work be done, but you will also get a lot done and do it efficiently. Even today, some older people still leave difficult things to be done on this day.
Things get done better on this day, which is actually a long-standing belief among people. When people are doing things, they believe that God is above them, so they dare not be hypocritical or make things difficult, and they are reasonable with each other, so things can be done more easily.
