Today is the Cold Clothes Festival on the first day of October, also known as the October Dynasty and ancestor worship festival, which means the arrival of severe winter. People should pay homage to their ancestors, "send cold clothes" for them, and use warmth to resist the cold wind and frost in the world for their loved ones.

According to legend, the Cold Clothes Festival originated in the Zhou Dynasty, "Fire is full in July, and clothes are given in September". Since September, it has become cold and clothes have been delivered, so the Cold Clothes Festival is also called the Clothes Delivery Festival.

Today in ancient times, emperors would put on winter clothes to announce the arrival of winter, and women would put on warm clothes for their families. People use the autumn harvest to worship gods and ancestors to report this year's harvest and hope, hoping that this winter will no longer be cold. On this day, people will worship their ancestors and burn ghost clothes. This is called "sending cold clothes" or melting five-color paper wrapped in cotton, which means that ancestors can use it to make cotton-padded clothes and burn them.

It is said that it should be cooked carefully and cleanly, so that people can put on warm clothes first. Caution is because of worry. No matter how cold it is, as long as someone loves, the heart will not cool down. China people have never been a nation that is good at expressing love, but our thoughts and care for our loved ones have never been ignored, even if they are thousands of miles apart, even if heaven and man are separated.

So what a wanderer listens to his mother most outside is not that you should come back early, but that you should eat more and take care of yourself. Therefore, whenever we miss our relatives during the festive season, we should first worship our ancestors, not only to pray for their blessing, but also to hope that they can feel the joy of the world. Love has always been a real life.

Today is the Cold Clothes Festival, and the weather is getting cold. Please remember to add clothes to your loved ones and send clothes to your deceased ancestors to keep warm. For China people, the deepest words to express their thoughts are not "I miss you", but "Winter is here, please don't forget to add clothes".
