What kind of festival is Shangsi Festival?

The Shangsi Festival can be traced back to commemorate Emperor Fuxi. Fuxi and his sister Nuwa formed humans from clay and multiplied. People in eastern Henan respectfully called Fuxi "the ancestor of mankind" and built the ancient Taihao Mausoleum Temple in Huaiyang. From the second day of the second month to the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar is the Taihao Mausoleum Temple Fair, when devout men and women, with boats from the south and horses from the north, all gather in the mausoleum area to pay homage to the ancestor of mankind. In the Pre-Qin period, this day had become a large-scale folk festival. The main activity was that people went to the waterside to bathe together, which was called "祓禊". Later, sacrificial banquets, and winding stream flowing wine cups were added. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Shangsi Festival gradually evolved into a festival where royal aristocrats, ministers, and literati feasted by the water (called the Qushui Banquet), from which another important custom of the Shangsi Festival was derived – the Qushui Liushang. After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Shangsi Festival was changed to March 3rd, and it was inherited by later generations, thus becoming a festival for banquets by the water and spring outings in the suburbs. During the Tang Dynasty, Shangsi Festival had become one of the three major festivals of the year. In addition to the purification ceremony, the main contents of the festival include spring outings and banquets by the water. After the Song Dynasty, the custom of March Shangsi gradually declined, but some customs are still popular. In the early Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang took his ministers on a spring outing on March 3rd to show that the times were peaceful and prosperous and to share happiness with the people. During the Yuan Dynasty, it was changed back to the Shangsi Day of March. Today, few people know about this festival in most parts of China.
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 one can control is his or her "luck."
