It is called Guitou Day by the people. It is a traditional sacrificial festival in my country and is said to have originated in the Zhou Dynasty. The Cold Clothes Festival is popular in the north. Many northerners will pay homage to their deceased relatives on this day, which is called sending cold clothes. In the north, the Cold Clothes Festival is collectively referred to as China's three major "Ghost Festivals" along with the Qingming Festival in spring and the Zhongyuan Festival on July 15th. At the same time, this day also marks the arrival of severe winter, so it is also the day to send warm clothes to parents, lovers and other people you care about. What should we pay attention to during the Cold Clothes Festival?Things to note about the Cold Clothes Festival 1 <br /> On October 1, the Cold Clothes Festival, friends who have the means should send "cold clothes" to their deceased ancestors. If you cannot visit the grave in person, you can also pay tribute to the deceased near where you live.Things to note about the Cold Clothes Festival 2 <br /> The memorial ceremony for sending cold clothes can be held at home or at the grave. The memorial ceremony at home can be held at the doorstep or at a nearby intersection, but attention should be paid to dry weather and precautions against fire. Generally speaking, it is best to offer sacrifices at the grave for those who have just passed away this year. When offering sacrifices to the grave, it is best to choose before noon. The yin energy is heavier at this time, so it is necessary to avoid it appropriately, especially for the elderly, children and the weak. Notes on the Cold Clothes Festival 3 <br /> In addition to the common incense, candles, fruit offerings, and wine, you also need to prepare some paper clothes. Those who are particular can make some paper houses and send them to relatives in other worlds, so that they can also spend a peaceful winter. Things to note about Cold Clothes Festival 4 <br /> This is a good opportunity to pass on the Chinese nation's filial piety. You can take this opportunity to educate your children, tell them about family heritage and stories of ancestors, and let your filial behavior set a good example for future generations. A family that advocates filial piety can become a harmonious family. Things to note about the Cold Clothes Festival 5 <br /> When offering sacrifices and sending winter clothes, everyone should be grateful and remember the past. Do not be sad or grief-stricken, because this is the time when the yin energy is strong. Your sadness and sorrow will easily attract the evil energy of yin, affecting your physical and mental health, so you must be careful. Instead, you should be happy and let your ancestors in the underworld also feel that you are living a happy and joyful life. This harmonious atmosphere is the best. |
