How to calculate the social day?

In ancient times, the country was a day to worship the land gods, usually on the fifth day after beginning of spring beginning of autumn. Clubs are divided into spring clubs and autumn clubs. It is wrong for some people to regard the vernal equinox and autumnal equinox as spring clubs and autumn clubs. In fact, the Spring Festival community is the fifth May Day after beginning of spring, and the autumn community is the fifth May Day after beginning of autumn.

The calculation method of Spring Festival Society is the second May Day before Tomb-Sweeping Day. Therefore, the Spring Festival is usually the first ten days in Tomb-Sweeping Day.

According to the custom of sacrifice, if someone died in the family last year, it is necessary to worship the new mountain and go to the new grave in front of the "Spring Society", which is called "the new mountain does not pass the society". There are two reasons: one is to avoid the big day of offering sacrifices to the land gods and meeting guests; Second, Yan Luowang "observed" the new ghosts' yearning for their loved ones, and "chartered" their souls to enjoy the sacrifice of their loved ones in the sun before the "Death Gate" was opened. This is a very kind arrangement, which promotes filial piety, because "being cautious to the end" is one of the ancient moral accomplishments.
