If you want to know more about the exciting content of October 2018 in the lunar calendar, please visit Mr. Shui Mo’s website!How are people born on the Lower Yuan Festival in 2018?The Lower Yuan Festival occurs in the tenth month of the lunar calendar, which is the month of Jianhai. In the divination of the Book of Changes, it is the month with Kun as the earth. People born in this month are serious and hardworking. They are so enthusiastic that they will complete a task even if it means staying up all night. Unfortunately, they get discouraged easily, so they often start things well but end up with a poor finish. Although they have a bad temper, they have a cheerful personality and like to take care of others. Work hard in middle age, and good luck will come in old age.People born in the Lower Yuan Festival have strong personalities, are aggressive and prone to causing trouble, which may ruin their future. Men should leave their hometown and develop in other places. Women will bring bad luck to their husbands. They must have a hard life in order to live together with their spouses until old age. This is an ordinary fate. People born on the Lower Yuan Festival, with Tianwu star on duty, will have a harmonious relationship with their spouses, but will not live happily in old age. Their children will be harmed, and they will be rich and prosperous in their later years. They will move away from their ancestral home to start a new family. Their ancestral property and land will be lost, their husbands will be harmed by their wives, and it will be difficult to have children. They will eventually have to separate, but it's okay for those who move into another house. The Lower Yuan Festival falls on the 15th day of the 10th lunar month. People born on this day are conceived in the first month of the lunar calendar. People born on this day: Male: The heart is as broad as the sea. Without hard work, one will not be rich. There will be conflicts between men and women, and it will be difficult for the couple to grow old together. It is advisable to do good deeds and pray to God to avoid disasters. He will have a rich life with no worries. It is better for men to leave their hometown and develop in another place. Female: Although she can help her husband and children, unfortunately she is lazy and strong-willed, and is prone to punishments. It is difficult for the couple to live in harmony, which leads to separation. A woman who brings bad luck to her husband must have a tough life. What are the customs of the Lower Yuan Festival?1. Pray to the gods. On this day, people generally have two major activities: fasting and offering sacrifices to ancestors, both of which aim to pray to the gods. In Putian, Fujian Province, every household will offer sacrifices to the water god in the fields in the evening of the Lower Yuan Festival, praying for moisture for the crops in the dry winter and for their safety during the winter. During the sacrifice, vegetarian food is placed on the table and incense sticks are scattered on the ridges of the fields to show piety. On the birthday of Yu, the God of Water, sacrificial activities are often held in Yu temples and other Yu memorial sites across the country. At the same time, outdoor activities such as "Water Color" will also be carried out. Water is related to the "Water Official", and color is rich in colors. Generally, they make colorful boats and parade them in the river. This is how the water got its name. At nightfall on the Lower Yuan Festival, villagers offer fish, chicken, pork and other foods as sacrifices to the earth god. After the founding of New China, this activity has basically stopped. 2. The Lower Yuan Festival is also the last moon festival of the year. During this full moon, people hold the most important ancestor worship activities. The Qingming Festival is a day for the family to worship their ancestors, the Zhongyuan Festival is a day for the family to worship their ancestors, and the Xiayuan Festival is often a day for the nation to worship their ancestors. On this day, the Chinese nation will commemorate the most admirable ancestors in their hearts. The scenes of worship in many places are grand, solemn, and sacred. One look at them will leave you with unforgettable memories. During the Lower Yuan Festival, there are activities such as burning "gold and silver packages" to worship the souls of ancestors. People fold red and green paper into fairy clothes, fold tin foil into silver ingots, and put them into a bag covered with white paper. On the front is written "I respectfully present a piece of treasure from the underworld and a piece of colorful clothes to so-and-so, who receives it", and below is written "So-and-so, the descendants, bow a hundred times". On the back is written "Sincerely sealed on such-and-such a year, month, and day". It is commonly known as a "gold and silver bag" and is burned after bowing and worshipping. In addition, there are other common activities of ancestor worship. 3. Eat seasonal foods such as eating dumplings during the Spring Festival, eating Yuanxiao on the 15th day of the first lunar month, eating rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, eating moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, etc. The Lower Yuan Festival also has its own food customs. The "Lower Yuan Festival" coincides with the harvest season in rural areas. Some families in Putian make tofu and then fry it. They also use glutinous rice flour ground from new grain to make pancakes, fill them with vegetarian fillings, and fry them into "shadow cakes", "scallion pancakes", or fragrant and delicious fried food dumplings, which are then used as offerings to "fast the sky" outside the gate. Today I would like to recommend a seasonal food for the Lower Yuan Festival - Mafu Baozi. The hemp-fried buns symbolize the bundle of winter clothes to be sent. On the day of the Lower Yuan Festival, no matter how busy a family is, they will take time to eat Mafu. The method of making hemp tofu is to grind the hemp seeds into fine powder, stir them into a paste with water, filter them with a sieve to remove the skin, add yellow rice and simmer them into a thick paste to make hemp tofu. The filling is made of mafu mixed with radish, potato or gourd, and steamed into mafu buns or dumplings. This vegetarian bun has a natural taste of oily, fragrant and soft. 4. The Xiayuan Day is also one of the dates for fasting and offering sacrifices in Taoist fasting rituals. Taoism believes that all things that require the use of divine power, such as praying for blessings, warding off disasters, relieving suffering, apologizing, seeking immortality, prolonging life, and saving the dead, etc., all require fasting. On this day, Taoist temples hold ceremonies to help people get rid of their troubles and difficulties. People go to the temples to watch and worship the Lower Yuan Water Official and their ancestors. |
