How to worship the western gods?

China people attach great importance to the New Year in China and held many activities to study the New Year in China. In ancient times, the Han people had the custom of offering sacrifices to XiShen during the Spring Festival. The Yangtze River valley attaches great importance to offering sacrifices to the auspicious god. On the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, people worship ancestors and other important gods before offering sacrifices to the western gods. Sacrifice to the western gods is grand and serious. People should dress neatly, check the almanac in advance, open their doors according to the direction of XiShen's arrival this year, carry lanterns, hold incense tables and other sacrifices, respectfully walk towards the direction of XiShen's arrival, and set off firecrackers along the way. This is a ceremony to welcome Xi Shen. When you meet people or animals on the way to meet XiShen, you should burn incense, set off firecrackers and worship.

Some people think that on the first day of the first month, just before dawn, the place where singing and dancing are peaceful is the direction of XiShen's arrival. You can meet the Greek god. It is not certain whether you can meet Greek God, because Greek God knows you, and you may not know Greek God.
