What should we pay attention to during the Double Ninth Festival?Avoid sexual intercourse <br /> Men and women must have sexual intercourse at the right time to achieve harmony between yin and yang. Otherwise, the imbalance of yin and yang will be detrimental to the reproduction of offspring and will also cause many disasters. "Double Ninth" is the peak of Yang numbers, after which it turns to Yin numbers, so all rash behaviors are forbidden and one must be careful and cautious. Sexual intercourse is also among the taboos.Avoid cooking <br /> In the past, it was said that "If you don't make rice cakes on Double Ninth Festival, a tiger will bite your mother." The Double Ninth Festival is the Elderly Day. On this day, we should let our old mothers have a rest and not overwork themselves by cooking. At that time, I was unable to explain this principle clearly, so I used this proverb to scare people. Avoid sending chrysanthemums <br /> Because chrysanthemums are sacrificial flowers, it is inappropriate to send chrysanthemums. Avoid saying "Happy Holidays" <br /> Double Ninth Festival is the day when the whole family goes out to climb high places to ward off evil spirits, so the blessings during Double Ninth Festival are "good health" or "safety for the whole family". What are the customs of Double Ninth Festival?1. Eat Chongyang Cake <br /> During the Chongyang Festival, we eat Chongyang Cake, which is a kind of cake made of rice flour and bean flour with chestnuts, almonds and other fillings. To increase the beauty, people make the Chongyang cake into cakes of various colors and sprinkle osmanthus flowers on the cakes. Therefore, Chongyang Cake is also known as Osmanthus Cake.2. Climbing and inserting dogwood "I know my brothers are climbing the mountain, but there is one less person wearing the dogwood branches." The Double Ninth Festival is also called the "Climbing Festival." The custom of climbing heights and inserting dogwood on the Double Ninth Festival was popular as early as the Tang Dynasty. The ancients believed that the Double Ninth Festival was also an unlucky day, and that climbing high places and wearing dogwood could ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters. 3. Appreciating chrysanthemums and drinking wine <br /> The Double Ninth Festival falls in the golden autumn when chrysanthemums are in full bloom. The poet Tao Yuanming is famous for his love of chrysanthemums, poetry and wine. Therefore, later generations followed his example and gathered scholars and literati to appreciate chrysanthemums, have banquets and chat. Thus, the custom of appreciating chrysanthemums and tasting wine on Double Ninth Festival came from this. 4. Ancestor worship <br /> The Pearl River Delta region has the custom of sweeping ancestral tombs and commemorating ancestors on the Double Ninth Festival, while the coastal areas of Fujian not only have the saying "March is the Little Qingming Festival, and the Double Ninth Festival is the Big Qingming Festival", but also the ninth day of the ninth month of each year is the day when Mazu passed away. People who believe in Mazu also go to Mazu temples to worship and pray for her blessing. 5. Bathing with mugwort water <br /> During the Double Ninth Festival, some areas in Hainan still have the custom of bathing with mugwort water, which is meant to remove evil spirits from the body. Modern medicine also points out that using mugwort water can effectively eliminate prickly heat and avoid mosquito bites. |
