What festival is the sixteenth day of the first month?

The 16th night of the first lunar month is one of the traditional lunar festivals in China.

"Izayoi, twist, carry baskets, dance torches, provoke people to scold, and send cattle piles for all ages." I don't know how many years this folk song has been circulating here.

Both adults and children are not free on New Year's Day, because there are many scruples on New Year's Day, especially when talking and doing things. But the 16th day of the first month is really our children's world, and it's a day for adults to play as they please.

Custom:

1, go to lark:

Go out, mind and hands. On this day in Jinan, mothers will go to Confucius Temple, Mencius Temple and Confucius Temple to burn incense and pray that their children will become dragons and phoenixes.

2, run all diseases (swim all diseases):

In other words, on this day, men, women and children should go out for a walk more, especially when crossing the bridge, which means good health all year round. From the 23rd day of the first month to the 15th day of the first month, everyone is busy celebrating the New Year, cleaning up their homes, buying new year's goods, visiting relatives and friends, and entertaining each other. Everyone is busy. After the fifteenth day of the first month, it's time to stop and rest.

So after breakfast on the sixteenth day of the first month, the whole family went out and ran around with various diseases. It is said that all kinds of diseases were left on the road when traveling. Drinking in the wild can turn luck into happiness, but be careful not to visit relatives and friends and visit other people's homes.

3, send cattle pile:

Sending a cow stump is simply a desire to have children and give birth to your son as soon as possible. It is a traditional custom not to have boys after giving birth to girls in succession. I hope to have boys.
