What are the good days to light a lamp to worship the kitchen god?

Welcome the day when Kitchen God returns to the people. Kitchen God wants to check the household registration, so every household should stay at home, prepare abundant fruits, burn incense, light candles and set off firecrackers to welcome them. There are some rural customs in the north, such as tying Vulcan, tying corn stalks or wheat stalks with sticks, lighting them and sending them to the river from their own homes, which means that there will be no fire at home for a year.

On the fourth night of the first month, prepare sacrifices, cakes, incense sticks and other things, beat gongs and drums to burn incense and worship, and sincerely respect the god of wealth. The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the birthday of the God of Wealth. In order to compete for the market, it is called "grabbing the road" or "grabbing the god of wealth" before April of the lunar calendar. Anyone who receives the God of Wealth will offer sheep-headed carp. Offering sheep's head means "auspiciousness", and offering carp is the homonym of "fish" and "profit", which makes a poem auspicious. People are convinced that as long as the god of wealth can show his spirit, he can make a fortune. Therefore, every new year, people will open doors and windows, light incense and set off firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the god of wealth at 0: 00 on the fifth day of the first month. After receiving the god of wealth, everyone still has to eat road wine, often until dawn. Everyone is full of hope of getting rich. I hope the god of wealth can bring home gold and silver treasures in the new year and make a fortune. On the sixth day of the first month, "sending the poor" was a very distinctive custom in ancient China. It means offering sacrifices to poor ghosts (poor gods).

Lianwu Road, originally referred to as Lianwu Road's daydreaming, later evolved into Lianwu Road's God of Wealth. In the old society, after the Spring Festival holiday, merchants usually invited Wutong God of Wealth on the fourth night and opened the market on the fifth day for good luck. It is said that the fifth road is on the fifth day, why is it on the fourth night? It turns out that the fifth day is a positive day. Because everyone is eager for profit, they all want to see the god of wealth earlier than others, so this time it was a little early, even on the morning of the fourth day. Of course, this is against the rules. Later, the elders came forward and agreed to act together to see God on the fourth night. To pick up the fifth lane, the owner must bring incense to the God of Wealth Hall in the east, west, south, north and middle directions. Please pick it up. Every time the god of wealth is taken away, a string of ancient cannons will be set off in front of the door. After all the people were received, the host and the waiter paid homage to the God of Wealth in turn. After the worship, the horses on the original table will be cremated as a tribute to the god of wealth. The ceremony is over.
