Is Halloween a Western ghost festival?Halloween has always been known as the "Western Ghost Festival", but in fact Halloween is the "Feast of All Saints" festival of the Catholic and Orthodox Church, a festival to celebrate all the saints in heaven.However, with the development of history, Halloween is now more like a carnival for young people. There are also some folk legends about "ghosts" in foreign countries, so some customs are also related to it (such as dressing up, asking for candy, etc.). Ghost Festival is the Chinese folk name for ancestor-worshiping festivals such as Qingming Festival and Zhongyuan Festival, so it is not unreasonable to call Halloween the "Western Ghost Festival". What are the legends of Halloween?The most famous legend of Halloween is related to the pumpkin lantern, which is called " Jack O'Lantern ".Legend has it that there was a man in Ireland named Stingy Jack. One day, he invited the devil to drink. Because he had no money to pay the bill after drinking, he persuaded the devil to turn into six pence to pay for the drinks. However, Jack did not use it to pay. Instead, he used a piece of silver paper to suppress the devil and prevent it from coming out. Later, the devil promised Jack not to scare him for a whole year, and Jack let the devil out. The devil appeared again on Halloween of the following year and promised not to harass Jack for a year. However, Jack died before the year was over. After his death, heaven would not accept him because he was very stingy, and hell would not keep him either because he teased the devil. With nowhere to go, he had no choice but to keep walking, carrying a white radish with the charcoal given by the devil inside to light the road and find a place to rest. Later, the Irish used potatoes or turnips to make lanterns. In the 1840s, as new immigrants came to the American continent, they found a better material than white turnips, which was pumpkin. Therefore, the Jack-O'-Lanterns we see are usually made of pumpkins. Do you want to know your own Bazi? Want to figure out where your golden marriage is?
