The God of Joy is the God of Good Luck, commonly known as the God of Happiness. Because people's wish is to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, and pursue happiness and joy, they invented a god of joy. According to Chinese folk legend, the God of Joy was originally a pious woman who worshipped the God of the North Dipper. When she became an immortal through Taoism, the God of the North Dipper asked her what she wanted. The woman pursed her lips with her hand and smiled without answering. The God of the North Dipper mistakenly thought that she was praying for a beard, so he gave her a long beard. Because she looked happy when she smiled, she was named the God of Joy. Because of the long beard, she was no longer visible to mortals. From then on, the God of Joy was responsible for celebrations, but her divine form was not revealed. Therefore, the biggest feature of the God of Joy is that he has no specific image and no special temple. He is highly abstract. However, later generations also regarded portraits of ancestors or King Zhou of Shang as the God of Joy and worshipped them. The worship of the God of Joy is common in various ritual activities, especially in weddings. What is the Song of the God of Happiness? The God of Joy is a deity in charge of joyous events. Welcoming the God of Joy not only has the meaning of joy and auspiciousness, but also can bring good health to the whole year. According to the song about the directions of the God of Happiness in traditional Feng Shui: "Jia is in Gen, Yi is in Gan, Bing is in Kun, Ding is in Li, and Wu is in Xun." We can get: Jia Si's day is in Gen, the God of Happiness is in the northeast; Yi Geng's day is in Gan, the God of Happiness is in the northwest; Bing Xin's day is in Kun, the God of Happiness is in the southwest; Ding Ren's day is in Li, the God of Happiness is in the south; Wu Gui's day is in Xun, the God of Happiness is in the southeast.Combining the above lunar calendar and the algorithm for finding the auspicious position of the God of Happiness, we can know that the auspicious position of the God of Happiness for the Ghost Festival in 2018 is in the northeast direction! What are the taboos on the Ghost Festival on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month?It is taboo to talk about ghosts on Ghost Festival . According to legend, the gates of hell are wide open on Ghost Festival, and many ghosts are wandering around the world. Talking about the word "ghost" frequently during the day can easily affect the aura, which can make ghosts feel it and will attract ghost intrusion. The seventh month of the lunar calendar is also the Ghost Month. It is best not to talk about ghosts and gods easily during this month.Don't burn paper randomly on Ghost Festival. There is a folk saying that ghost paper is burned for ghosts, and gold paper is burned for gods. This rule cannot be violated. On Ghost Festival, people burn paper money for lonely ghosts and passing ghosts. Usually, people will choose the same time and place to burn paper money on this day, otherwise it will easily attract more ghosts. Don't pat shoulders on Ghost Festival. Legend has it that people have three yang lamps, one on the top of the head and on the two shoulders. They absorb yang energy during the day and light up at night to drive away ghosts. If the lamps go out, some supernatural events are likely to occur. Therefore, during special periods like Ghost Festival, do not pat others’ shoulders as this may put out the lanterns. Do not look back when you hear someone calling your name as each time you look back one lantern will be put out. If all the lanterns are out, you can only let the ghosts do whatever they want. |
