It is recommended to choose another day. What is the Shangsi Festival?1. Chinese Valentine's Day This is China's Valentine's Day, recorded in the Book of Songs, 1,000 years earlier than the Western Valentine's Day. After the Pre-Qin period, March 3rd Valentine's Day was passed down from generation to generation. In the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu's line "The weather is fresh on the third day of March, and there are many beauties by the water in Chang'an" brought the swaying and beautiful style to a climax. Since the Song Dynasty, Neo-Confucianism has prevailed, etiquette has become increasingly strict, and the custom of March 3rd Valentine's Day has gradually declined in Chinese culture. The romantic love, beautiful visions and elegant fun of drinking wine while drinking on March 3rd have all disappeared.One of the main activities of the Shangsi Festival is the meeting of men and women, which is the "Valentine's Day" for men and women to express their love. "The Book of Songs·Zhengfeng·Zhinwei" says: "Zhin and Wei, their waters are clear and clear. Gentlemen and ladies are numerous. The woman said, "Let's go and have a look." The man said, "Okay." Let's go and have a look. Beyond the Wei River, it is truly joyful and pleasant. The man and the woman were about to joke, and the man gave the woman a spoon of medicine. 2. Girls' Day March 3 is also called Girls' Day, also known as "Peach Blossom Festival". It was a coming-of-age ceremony for ancient girls, and the coming-of-age ceremony was usually held on this day. Daughters would "play in spring on the Shangsi Festival". They would walk along the water, pick orchids by the water, put on beautiful clothes, sing and dance to ward off evil spirits. And women love playing by the water in spring. The difference between this and Japan's Girls' Festival is that Japan's Girls' Festival is also on March 3rd and is also called "Hina Matsuri". Because March 3rd of the lunar calendar is the time when peach blossoms are in full bloom, it is also called the "Peach Blossom Festival", which comes from the Shangsi Daughter's Festival in China. However, the difference is that Japan also celebrates the festival for young little girls, mainly for girls of a few years old, while China focuses more on unmarried young girls. On this day, adults begin to dress up the little girls in the family. They all dress up and are led by their mothers to visit each other, wearing pomegranate flowers on their heads to ward off evil and seek blessings. Girls would invite their good playmates to visit each other, and grandpa’s family would give girls many dolls, using the number of dolls as a measure of whether the family was wealthy. Girls have to put all the dolls on shelves, along with various dressing table items and other utensils, and then insert peach blossoms and hang lanterns next to the shelves. The dolls have to change into many kinds of clothes. It is said that this started from the game of changing clothes for dolls that was popular among aristocratic girls in the Heian period. Murasaki in The Tale of Genji often played this game when she was a child. 3. The Shangsi Festival has an inextricable relationship with water and is also called the "Spring Bathing Day". There are also purification, repair or bathing activities. Bathing is to ward off disasters. At that time, people believed that women's infertility was caused by ghosts and gods, so they used bathing during the Shangsi Festival to treat infertility. Over time, this became a custom and bathing became an important part of the Shangsi Festival. Qushui Liushang is a game popular in ancient China. This game is very old. There is a poem saying: "The wine cup floats with the waves." 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."
