What's the date of 1 1. 14? Why do you burn a lot of paper?

The first day of October in the lunar calendar is the next Lantern Festival. Folk call it Cold Clothes Festival. Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival (the 15th day of the seventh lunar month) are both sacrificial festivals in China, also known as Ghost Festival. On this day, people go to the cemetery of their deceased ancestors to offer sacrifices, mainly burning clothes made of colored paper. If they can't make them, they will burn dozens of colored paper (let the ancestors "make their own clothes"). At this time, the weather began to get cold, and all kinds of clothes and cotton-padded clothes were "sent" to keep our ancestors warm for the winter.
