The "Mid-July Festival" was originally a folk festival for ancestor worship in ancient times, and it was called the "Zhongyuan Festival" because of the Taoist saying after the Eastern Han Dynasty. Taoism believes that the 15th day of the seventh lunar month is the birthday of the God of Earth. On the day of praying to the God of Earth to forgive sins, the underworld will release all ghosts and the deceased ancestors can return home for reunion. Therefore, the 15th day of the seventh lunar month to worship ancestors is called the "Zhongyuan Festival"; in Buddhism, it is called the "Yulanpen Festival".

What day is the Mid-July Festival?

Answer: The Mid-Autumn Festival is on the 14th or 15th day of the seventh lunar month every year. The custom of worshiping ancestors on the 14th day of the seventh lunar month is an ancient custom. It was originally a folk festival for worshiping ancestors, not a "Ghost Festival". The fact that the "Mid-July Festival" is called the "Zhongyuan Festival" originated from Taoism after the Eastern Han Dynasty. Taoism believes that on the day of the Zhongyuan Festival, the gates of hell are opened in the underground palace, and all ghosts must leave the underworld to be tested. Ghosts with owners go home, while ghosts without owners wander around the human world, prowling around looking for food. Therefore, it is also called the Ghost Festival. Activities to worship ghosts are common, and lotus lanterns are lit to light the way home for the dead souls. Gradually, the ancestor worship on July 14th merged with the Zhongyuan Festival and evolved into the same festival. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
