On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, visit the graves of your ancestors and ask for offerings!The Chinese lunar calendar is divided into big and small months. The so-called big month is thirty days, and the small month is only twenty-nine days.Therefore, the twelfth lunar month is a short month, and the twenty-ninth day is the last day of the year. Then the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month is New Year's Eve. Even if it is not a short month, the next day is New Year's Eve, so all preparations for the New Year must be completed on this day. In the entire New Year festival, the 29th day can be said to be the busiest day. In addition to preparing various food, clothing and sacrificial offerings for the New Year festival, there is also an extremely important activity of "visiting the graves to pray to the ancestors". Therefore, the New Year's folk song says, "On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, visit the graves of ancestors and ask for great offerings." The worship of ancestors has a long history in China. Treating death as if it were life is not only an important symbol of filial piety, but also a virtue of respecting the elderly. Therefore, every time there is a festival, we have to offer sacrifices to our ancestors. This is not only a way to comfort the ancestors, but also an expression of gratitude and longing for the ancestors by the descendants. The Spring Festival is a major festival, so the ceremony of visiting graves and praying to ancestors is particularly solemn and important. The time for visiting the graves and praying to the ancestors is in the early morning of the 29th day in most areas, while in a few areas it is in the afternoon or dusk on New Year's Eve. 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. Precautions 1. Do not laugh, play, run around or bump into anything around a 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. What is usually said during the sacrifice: what you plan to do at the grave, why you do it, and the hope that the ancestors will bless you, and everything will go smoothly and peacefully.
