Introduction: Our country has been a traditional cultural country since ancient times, so it has many traditional festivals that have been preserved to this day, and Spring Festival is one of them. So when is the Spring Festival in 2019, and what can’t we do during the Spring Festival in 2019? For more details about the 2019 lunar calendar for February, please visit Mr. Shuimo’s website for consultation!When is the Spring Festival in 2019?2019 Spring Festival Date: Thursday, March 7, 2019 (the first day of the second month of the Year of the Pig, one day away from the Spring Festival in February 2019 of the lunar calendar)The community day is in the second month of the lunar calendar. People worship the earth god and pray for a good harvest. There is a custom of drinking Zhonghe wine and Yichun wine, which is said to be able to cure ear diseases. Therefore, people also call it "deaf-curing wine." Li Zai of the Song Dynasty wrote in a poem: "The old man of the community is in a bad mood today, because he lacks a bottle of wine to treat deafness. The Jade Hall is about to be opened for business, and he vaguely patrols the three halls." The Spring Festival in February is also known as the Zhonghe Festival. According to Guangji, "villagers make Zhonghe wine, offer sacrifices to Gumangzhong, and pray for a good harvest." According to the "Compendium of Ancient and Modern Books·Wine" compiled by Chen Menglei in the Qing Dynasty, "During the Zhonghe Festival, people in the neighborhoods brew wine, which is called Yichun wine." What can’t be done during the 2019 Spring Festival?As in the past, many places also have many taboos during the Spring Festival. For example, in Qingquan, from the beginning of spring to the day after the Spring Festival, it is taboo to use metal to offend earth. In Fenghuang County and Yuanling, it is taboo to sweep or draw water before the Spring Festival. In Yunyang, it is taboo to dig the ground and women should stop sewing.Yuan Jinglan, a famous poet in the late Qing Dynasty, recorded in his work "Wujun Suihua Ji Li" that in the Jiangsu area, during the Spring Festival, the government "offered sacrifices and music as rewards", and the farmers "prepared pots and bottles of rice" to "prayer for the festival". He also said that "collecting wine for the festival is called festival money; beating drums to pray for a good harvest is called festival drums; drinking wine to cure deafness is called festival wine; and mixing meat and other foods with rice is called festival rice." The lively and fun scene made the officials who collected rent no longer disturb the people. What is the origin of Spring Festival?Spring Festival is one of the oldest traditional folk festivals of the Han nationality. In the Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, it was a carnival festival for trysts between men and women, and later it was mainly used to worship the land god. The time of Spring Festival is generally the fifth Wu day after the beginning of spring, which is approximately around the vernal equinox, but among the Han Chinese people there are also sayings that it is held on the second, eighth, twelfth, or fifteenth day of the second month.There are relevant records of Spring Festival in oracle bone inscriptions, which has a history of more than 2,000 years. Before the Yuan Dynasty, it has always been a very important traditional festival in China. However, at present, only some areas in mainland China and Taiwan have the custom of worshipping the God of Land on February 2, and they call this day the Birthday of the Land or the Birthday of Fortune, etc., but it is not exactly the same as the traditional Spring Festival. In some parts of northern mainland China, some Han folk customs during the Dragon Raising Festival on February 2 are also inherited from the Spring Festival. Regarding the rise and fall of the Spring Festival, some scholars attributed it to "originating in three dynasties, first flourishing in the Qin and Han Dynasties, continuing in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, flourishing in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and declining in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties."
