2. The eighth day of the first month is also the Valley Day, also known as Valley King Day, which is one of the traditional festivals. Legend has it that the eighth day of the first lunar month is millet's birthday, which is called Valley Day or Valley Day Festival. In China folklore, Nu Wa created people. From the first day, she created chickens, dogs, pigs, sheep, cows, horses and other animals in turn. On the seventh day, she created people and on the eighth day, she created millet. Therefore, the eighth day is the birthday of cereal.
A Buddha worship ceremony will be held on the eighth day of the first lunar month. Shunxing is also called sacrificial star. The ancients thought that every star in the sky was a fairy and was called the king of stars. For example, the sun is the king of the sun, the moon is the king of the moon, Jupiter is the old star, and Venus is too white. Every star in the sky has its own name and corresponding immortal, and the eighth day of the first month is the day when these "star kings" came down to earth, so people have to worship for protection and shelter. This worship ceremony is called "Shun Xing".
