Why do you want to post Spring Festival couplets on the door?

1, Spring Festival couplets, also known as "couplets". The word "Ying" refers to the pillar in front of the hall, and the door frame is barely called "Ying", so Spring Festival couplets are posted on both sides of the door.

In Zhou dynasty, people hung two rectangular peach symbols on both sides of the gate to ward off evil spirits. In addition, people will carve or draw two statues in mahogany and hang or post them on both sides of the gate. Peach trees are ruddy, and people think that red can ward off evil spirits. The ancients also called peach wood the essence of five trees. Ghosts were very scared, so they hung peach wood on the door to protect their homes from evil spirits.

3. In the Five Dynasties, there was a monarch named Meng Changjun. One year on New Year's Eve, he had a whim and asked Bachelor Xin to write two poems on a peach symbol and hang them outside his bedroom. After the completion of this poem, Meng Changjun thought that the new poem was not well written, so he personally made two sentences: "Spring Festival in Qing Yu, Changchun in the First Festival." It means enjoying the grace of our ancestors in the new year, and the Spring Festival shows that spring is always there. This is the earliest Spring Festival couplets ever seen and recorded. After the news came out, many scholars followed suit and regarded writing couplets on peach symbols as an elegant thing. Since then, the content and nature of Fu Tao have gradually changed, from carved gods to auspicious characters, which have been handed down from generation to generation.
