New Year Eve

_______________________________

It is difficult to verify when the custom of celebrating the New Year originated, but it is generally believed that it originated from the activities of worshiping gods and ancestors in the late Yin and Shang Dynasties. The first month of the lunar calendar (January) is the beginning of the year. On the first or middle day of the first lunar month, most of the time it happens to be the beginning of spring (a small part of the time is in the second half of the twelfth lunar month of the beginning of spring). It is now named the Spring Festival; the specific festival time will be finalized. I believe It is related to the minimal impact on agricultural work at this time. The last days of the lunar year (the 30th and 29th of the lunar month) are called New Year Eve. On New Year's Eve, the whole family gathers together to celebrate the New Year's Eve dinner (the last meal of the lunar year). After the New Year's Eve dinner, there is a custom of staying up late on New Year's Eve (observation of New Year's Eve every year) and giving New Year's money, which means that the last day of the lunar year will be observed on the first day of the coming year. Therefore, this festival is also called Chinese New Year.

According to the Gregorian calendar, spring outing is from January 21st to February 20th. On February 4th or 5th at the beginning of spring.

Little New Year and Big New Year

People, especially people in rural areas, have the habit of celebrating Little New Year and Big New Year.

On the 23rd (or 24th) day of the twelfth lunar month (see the explanation on the discussion page), the Stove Lord is sent to heaven (the painting dedicated to the Stove Lord is cremated) and the Jade Emperor is reported to the Jade Emperor for the past year. performance. In order for the Stove Lord to say good things to him, he should offer cantaloupe and stick candies on his mouth when bidding farewell so that he can say good things to God. To welcome the return of the Kitchen King in the New Year, sEve asks (buys) a new painting of the Kitchen King (showing the Kitchen King and his wife, the Kitchen King with milk on top) for the kitchen. There is usually a couplet on both sides of the painting: Heaven has said yes, come down to earth to ensure peace. Hengpi: the head of the family.

From the last day of the twelfth lunar month, it is generally believed that until the 15th day of the first month, the Lantern Festival, there is another saying

Laba: the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is for the Han people A traditional festival that marks the arrival of the New Year Eve. As a tradition, we should drink Laba porridge and make Laba garlic on this day. See Laba Festival.

Nian

According to legend, there was a monster called "Nian" in ancient China. It had long tentacles on its head and was extremely ferocious. Nian has lived on the bottom of the sea for many years. Every New Year, Eve climbs ashore, devouring livestock and harming people's lives. Therefore, every New Year's Eve, people in villages and villages help the elderly and young people escape to the mountains to avoid the harm of the Nian beast.

On New Year’s Eve this year, people in Taohua Village helped people of all ages take refuge in the mountains. From outside the village, an old man begging was seen with his hand on a cane, his arm on the bag, his silver beard flowing, and his eyes staring at Matthew. Some villagers sealed their windows and doors, some packed their bags, some led their cattle and herded sheep, and there were screaming and panicked people everywhere. At this time, who has the heart to take care of this old man begging? Only an old woman in the east of the village gave the old man some food and suggested that he go up the mountain to avoid the Nian beast. The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile. If my mother-in-law lets me stay at home for one night, I will definitely drive away the Nian beast. The old woman looked at him in surprise and saw that he had bright hair, a child-like face, and a vibrant spirit. But she continued to persuade, begging the old man to smile and say nothing. The mother-in-law had no choice but to leave home and take refuge in the mountains.

At midnight, the Nian beast broke into the village. I found that the atmosphere in the village was different from previous years: there was a house on the east side of the old woman's village, with red paper on the door and candles lit in the house. The beast shuddered and let out a long cry. Nian stayed in the house for a while glaring at her mother-in-law, then ran away screaming. When he was approaching the door, there was a sudden explosion in the yard. Nian was shaking all over and did not dare to go any further. It turns out that Nian is most afraid of red, fire, and explosions. At this time, the door of my mother-in-law's house was opened, and I saw an old man in red robe smiling in the yard. Nian couldn't help being frightened and ran away in embarrassment.

The next day was the first day of the first lunar month, and the people who took refuge were surprised to find that the village was safe and sound. At this time, the old woman suddenly realized and quickly told the villagers about the beggar's promise to the old man. The villagers gathered with the old woman to return to her parents' home, but they were ecstatic when they saw a pile of unburned bamboos still exploding in the yard outside the red paper mother-in-law's door, and a few red candles in the house still shining to celebrate the auspicious arrival. The villagers put on new clothes and hats, visited relatives and friends and went home to say hello. This incident soon spread throughout the surrounding villages, and people all knew how to drive away the Nian beast.

Every New Year's Eve, every house posts red couplets and sets off firecrackers; every house is brightly lit, and it's time to wait for the New Year. Early in the morning, I want to greet my friends and relatives. This custom spreads more and more widely and becomes the most solemn traditional festival in China.

The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar, also known as the lunar calendar, is commonly known as Chinese New Year and New Year. This is the most solemn and lively traditional festival in China. The Spring Festival has a long history. It originated from the activities of worshiping gods and ancestors in the late Yin and Shang Dynasties. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, it is the first day of the Lunar New Year

Then, every household prepares New Year's goods. About ten days before the festival, people start busy purchasing goods. New Year's goods, including chicken, duck, fish, tea, wine, soy sauce, north and south roasted seeds and nuts, candied fruits, must be purchased in sufficient quantities, and you should also prepare some gifts when visiting relatives and friends during the New Year. Children should buy new clothes and hats to wear during the New Year.

Before the New Year, a piece of red paper with yellow characters on the door of the house should be pasted on the door, which is also a Spring Festival couplet written on red paper. The house is decorated with brightly colored auspicious New Year pictures, ingenious girls cut beautiful window grilles and paste them on the windows, red lanterns are hung in front of the door, or there are blessing words, such as the God of Wealth and the Door God. And the word "福" can be pasted upside down. Passers-by chant the word "福" to express blessing. All these activities are designed to add enough festive atmosphere to the festival.

Another name for the Spring Festival is Chinese New Year. In past legends, "Nian" is a fictional animal that brings bad luck to people. Year after year. The trees are withered and the grass is barren; after the New Year, everything grows and flowers are everywhere. How did you spend a year? Firecrackers are needed, so there is the custom of setting off firecrackers. It is actually another way to heighten the lively scene.

The Spring Festival is a joyful and peaceful festival, and it is also a day for family reunions. Children who are away from home have to go home to reunite during the New Year. The night before the Lunar New Year falls on the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, also known as New Year's Eve and Reunion Eve. At the turn of the old and the new, staying up late is one of the most important activities in the New Year. On New Year's Eve, the whole family, old and young, gather together to get drunk and enjoy family happiness. In northern China, there is the custom of eating dumplings on New Year's Eve. In dumplings, the method is to mix the noodles first, and the words are the same. Dumplings and dumplings are in harmony with each other, meaning getting together, and also meaning making friends at a young age. In the south, it is customary to eat rice cakes during the New Year. The sweet glutinous rice cake symbolizes the sweetness of life in the New Year.

When the first rooster crows, or the New Year bell rings, firecrackers go off in the streets, and every household is filled with joy. The new year has begun. Men, women and children are all dressed in festive costumes. First, they pay New Year greetings to their elders at home. birthday. During the festival, they will also give the children lucky money and have a reunion dinner. On the second and third days of the New Year, they begin to visit relatives and friends, pay New Year greetings to each other, and express congratulations on new happiness and wealth.

The warm atmosphere of the festival not only permeates every household, but also permeates the streets and alleys everywhere. In some places, there are also customs such as lion dance, dragon lantern performance, social fire performance, flower market tours, temple fairs and other customs.

During this period, lanterns dotted the city, tourists filled the streets, and it was very lively and unprecedented. The Spring Festival does not really end until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the Lantern Festival.

The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Han people, but it is also celebrated by more than a dozen ethnic minorities such as the Manchu, Mongolian, Yao, Zhuang, Bai, Gaoshan, Hezhen, Hani, Daur, Dong, and Li ethnic groups. The customs of the Spring Festival, but the forms of the festival have their own national characteristics and endless charm.

The origin and legend of the Spring Festival

The concept of the Spring Festival originally came from agriculture. In ancient times, people called the growth cycle of the valley a year. "Shuo Wenhe Bu" said: "One year, the valley matures." The lunar calendar appeared in the Xia and Shang dynasties, using the moon's cycle as one month, one year divided into twelve months, and the day when the moon is absent as the new moon. The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar is called the beginning of the year, also known as the year. The era names began in the Zhou Dynasty and were not officially fixed until the Western Han Dynasty, and continue to this day. However, in ancient times, the first day of the first month was called New Year's Day. Until the victory of the Revolution of 1911 in modern China, the Nanjing Provisional Government stipulated the use of the lunar calendar among the people in order to adapt to the farming season and facilitate statistics.

The Spring Festival originated from the primitive society of China's "December Festival". It is said that people kill pigs to offer sacrifices to heaven during the twelfth lunar month to pray for good weather and abundant harvests in the coming year. People painted their faces with cinnabar, decorated them with bird wings, and sang and danced. As for the Spring Festival, it first appeared in the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty Yang Zhen": there was no overnight snow in winter, and there was no rain during the Spring Festival.

On September 27, 1949, New China was founded. At the People's First Plenary Session, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference decided to adopt the internationally accepted Gregorian calendar and set January 1 of the Gregorian calendar as the New Year's Day, commonly known as the Gregorian calendar year. The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar is usually the beginning of spring, so the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar is designated as the Spring Festival, commonly known as the lunar year.

One of the Spring Festival legends: surviving the new year.

Staying up late on New Year’s Eve is the custom of staying up late on the last night of the old year to welcome the New Year. It is also known as staying up late on New Year’s Eve and is commonly known as staying up late to celebrate the New Year. In order to explore the origin of this custom, an interesting story has been circulated among the people:

In ancient times, there was a ferocious monster scattered in the deep mountains and old forests. People call them years. It has a ferocious appearance and a ferocious nature. It only eats birds, beasts and scale beetles. Its taste changes every day, from a kowtowing insect to a living person, which makes people talk about its color changes over the years. Later, people gradually mastered the year. It goes to crowded places to taste fresh food every 365 days, and the time it appears is after dark. When the rooster crows at dawn, they return to the mountains.

People who have calculated their New Year’s anger regard this terrible night as a barrier, called New Year’s Eve, and come up with a whole set of ways to end the New Year: sEve: every night, every family prepares dinner in advance, and closes the night. Make a good fire, clean the stove, tie up all the chicken pens and cattle pens, seal the front and back doors of the house, hide in the house and have a New Year's Eve dinner, because the fate of this dinner is uncertain. In addition to having a family dinner together, they also worship their ancestors before eating and pray to their spirits for a safe night. No one dared to sleep after dinner, so we sat together and chatted to build up our courage. Eve gradually developed the habit of not sleeping during the New Year.

The custom of keeping the year old arose in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Literary men in the Liang Dynasty wrote many poems about keeping the year old. Two years old in one night, two years old in five nights. People light candles or oil lamps and keep vigil all night, symbolizing that all evil diseases and plagues have been driven away, and they look forward to good luck in the new year. This custom has been passed down to this day.
