In the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, the coldest days of winter arrive as expected. Shuimoxiansheng.com presents you with wonderful content for the twelfth month of the lunar calendar in 2018.When should we clean the room in the twelfth lunar month?A folk proverb says, "On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, dust and sweep the house."Volume 12 of Qing Jia Lu records: "When the twelfth lunar month is about to end, people choose a day according to the calendar to sweep the house and remove dust from the courtyards and doors. Some people choose the 23rd, 24th, or 27th day, which is commonly known as 'beating the dust'." On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, people clean the house and do a thorough cleaning of the courtyard inside and outside. After the Kitchen God worship ceremony, preparations for the New Year officially begin. Sweeping the dust is the year-end cleaning, which is called "sweeping the house" in the north and "dusting" in the south. Why do people dust? This is not only for a clean year, but also for worshiping gods and ancestors. In ancient times, the general cleaning of the Spring Festival was called "sweeping the year", which originated from a religious ritual of ancient people to drive away diseases and epidemics. Later it gradually evolved into a year-end cleaning. It is a traditional custom of our people. In the north it is called "sweeping the house" and in the south it is called "dusting". Every household has to clean the environment, wash various utensils, take apart and wash bedding and curtains, sweep the courtyard, dust off dust and cobwebs, and dredge open and underground ditches. In the north, cleaning the house in the twelfth month of the year during the severe winter means just dusting and sweeping, but in the south, tables, chairs and benches are often carried to the riverside or well to be washed. After sweeping the house, the whole family will start preparing New Year's goods, such as buying incense, candles, paper codes, offerings, writing couplets, cutting window flowers, buying hanging money and New Year pictures. From north to south, the atmosphere is filled with joy and enthusiasm to clean up and welcome the New Year in a clean manner.
