Tomb-Sweeping Day's composition material, a junior high school student.
The name "Tomb-Sweeping Day" also comes from Tomb-Sweeping Day in the twenty-four solar terms of the China lunar calendar. 105 The first day after winter is Qi Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingming Qi * * has been 15. As it is Tomb-Sweeping Day, the time is after the vernal equinox. At this time, winter has gone, spring is full, the sky is clear and the fields are full of vitality. It is called Qingming. According to the Gregorian calendar, April 4th to 6th every year is a season of bright spring and lush vegetation, and it is also a good time for people to have a spring outing. Therefore, the ancients had the custom of Tomb-Sweeping Day going for an outing and carrying out a series of sports activities. In ancient times, there was another saying "March Festival". It is called cold food from winter to the next day 105. In the past, fires and cold food were forbidden, so it was also called "Cold Food Festival".
According to folklore, cold food is to commemorate Mianshan Burning Jiexiu in the Spring and Autumn Period. Jin Wengong ordered a ban on making fires. Jietui is from Shanxi, so the custom of cold food was first popular in Shanxi. In the old days, cold food was cut off, and the next day there was a ceremony of drilling wood to make a fire in the palace. Many people begged each other for a fire with wicker.
In the concept of the ancients, 108 is a large number representing perfection, auspiciousness, antiquity and profundity. It has a profound meaning to put Qingming Festival on the 108 day after the winter solstice. The name of Qingming is not only because everything grows clean at this time, but also because the sun in this period is also a fresh sun and a fresh sun spirit between heaven and earth.
