Is Double Ninth Festival the Ghost Festival?

Although there is a custom of ancestor worship on the Double Ninth Festival, it is not a ghost festival.
In the "Book of Changes", "nine" is defined as a yang number. On September 9th, there are two nines, so it is called Double Ninth Festival, also known as Double Ninth. The Double Ninth Festival was formed as early as the Warring States Period. In the Tang Dynasty, it was officially designated as a folk festival and has been passed down from dynasty to dynasty since then.
The origin of Double Ninth Festival can be traced back to before the Qin Dynasty. The "Jiu Qiu Ji" in "Lüshi Chunqiu" records: "(In September) the household steward is ordered to prepare for the harvest and to collect the five important kinds of crops. The harvest is stored in the emperor's register in the sacred granary, and it must be handled with great respect and care." "On this day, a great feast is held to the emperor, sacrifices are offered, and the preparations are reported to the emperor." It can be seen that at that time there were already activities to offer sacrifices to the emperor of heaven and ancestors when the crops were harvested in September in autumn to thank the emperor of heaven and ancestors for their kindness.
During the Han Dynasty, the custom of celebrating the Double Ninth Festival gradually became popular. According to legend, Lady Qi, the concubine of Emperor Gaozu of Han, was murdered by Empress Lu, and her predecessor, Lady Jia, was expelled from the palace and married to a poor man. Jia brought the Double Ninth Festival activities to the people. Jia said to others: In the imperial palace, on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month every year, people wear dogwood, eat rice dumplings, and drink chrysanthemum wine in order to pray for longevity. From then on, the custom of Double Ninth Festival spread among the people.

What are the taboos to pay attention to when getting married?

1. The bride’s clothes should not have pockets, so as not to take away the wealth from her parents’ home.
2. Three days after the wedding, the newlyweds must return to their husband’s home before sunset and cannot stay overnight. If there are special reasons that prevent them from going home, the couple should sleep separately to prevent the bride's bloodiness during her honeymoon from offending her family and bringing bad luck to them.
3. Pregnant women and people in mourning are not allowed to witness the newlyweds leaving the house or moving in, and they are not allowed to touch the newlyweds’ clothes or any items in the new house.
4. When the groom goes to the bride's house to pick up the bride, the bride may leave her parents' home or cry for joy out of excessive excitement. This is very common and not a problem (it is even a good thing, as leaving "water head" behind will bring good luck to the bride's family). But after you marry into the man’s family, you are not allowed to cry.
5. The bride should avoid wearing "old shoes" on the wedding day. All wedding shoes, embroidered shoes and evening shoes should be new. If you are worried that the new shoes will be hard and uncomfortable, you should choose higher quality soft leather, size them a little looser and add thick pads. Also, you should not wear heels that are too high.
6. You can wear some mascots or lucky charms. But don't buy randomly.
7. The bride should be careful not to step on the groom's shoes, as this would be considered embarrassing for her husband.
8. When the bride enters the groom's house, she should avoid stepping on the threshold and should step over it.
