Introduction: Why do people climb mountains on the Double Ninth Festival? What is the saying about climbing mountains on the Double Ninth Festival? There are good and bad days, and this happens repeatedly every day. Predicting the good and bad days in advance can help us avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles. Therefore, Mr. Shui Mo has predicted the good and bad luck for each day in the ninth month of the lunar calendar in 2018 to help everyone avoid trouble.Why do people climb mountains on the Double Ninth Festival? What is the saying about climbing mountains on the Double Ninth Festival?Theory of warding off evil spirits <br /> There is a saying that climbing high places on the Double Ninth Festival can ward off evil spirits. The ancients believed that during the Double Ninth Festival, the air in the sky dropped while the air on the ground rose, and the two energies of heaven and earth intersected, causing evil spirits to spread. In order to avoid contact with unhealthy energy, one must climb high mountains to avoid the evil energy of the Double Ninth Festival. In addition, September 9th falls in the middle of autumn, when the weather is clear and cool, making it a very suitable time for climbing high places and looking far into the distance.Pray for blessings and give thanks <br /> In ancient times, people worshipped mountain gods and believed that they could save people from disasters. Therefore, people would climb mountains and worship gods on the Double Ninth Festival, when the auspicious pole would change. The Book of Rites states: "Mountains, forests, rivers, valleys, and hills that can produce clouds, wind and rain, and monsters are all called gods." Auspicious meaning <br /> However, some people also say that the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar has the auspicious meaning of "good for longevity". In the late Han Dynasty, Cao Pi said in "Letter to Zhong Yao in September": "Years go by and months come, and suddenly it is September 9th again. Nine is a yang number, and the sun and the moon correspond to each other. People praise its name and think it is auspicious for longevity, so they hold banquets and gatherings on the Double Ninth Festival (i.e., climbing heights)." Therefore, climbing heights, drinking chrysanthemum wine, and women tying dogwood bags on their arms gradually became folk customs. Climbing to collect <br /> During the Double Ninth Festival, the autumn harvest has been completed and there is relatively little time for farming. At this time, the wild fruits, medicinal herbs and the like in the mountains are ripe, and farmers go up the mountains to collect wild fruits, medicinal herbs and plant raw materials for their sideline businesses. The custom of climbing heights may have originally evolved from this. Climbing a height to say goodbye to the green <br /> The Double Ninth Festival is also one of the solar terms in nature, so climbing a height is also called saying goodbye to the green. The Double Ninth Festival is an autumn festival. After the festival, the weather gradually gets cooler and the grass and trees begin to wither. Climbing mountains on the Double Ninth Festival to "bid farewell to the green" corresponds to the spring outings in March in ancient times. The "Annals of the Capital's Sui Shi Sheng" compiled by Pan Rongbi in the Qing Dynasty recorded: "(Double Ninth Festival) some people bring wine to the suburbs and drink all day long, which is called 'saying goodbye to Qing'." |
