What did the ancients say about sealing wells?

Well sealing is a ritual of the ancients, which has a specific environment and significance.

According to folk custom, the well at the door of every household should be sealed on New Year's Eve. Until the first day of New Year's Day, an adult in the family will remove the mud from the well in the early hours of the morning, pour water into the well and wash it with water. This move has two meanings: one is to hide money and treasure, and the other is to be safe all your life.

Therefore, the ancient people's well sealing was a ritual with specific environment and significance.
