This year, Tomb-Sweeping Day is on the third day of the third lunar month. They say it's ghost festival, so you can't worship your ancestors. Is it true?/You don't say.

China people's calendars always give rise to endless changes. This year's Tomb-Sweeping Day falls on March 3rd, the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar. So there are rumors among the people: it's a day, and it's not appropriate to sweep the grave on Qingming this year! Xiamen folklore experts said in an interview with reporters yesterday that Tomb-Sweeping Day and "March 3rd" did not intersect, and they planned to pay homage to their ancestors' families, so please proceed as planned. Tomb-Sweeping Day is one of the twenty-four solar terms in China, and it is also an extremely important traditional festival. It is a day to worship ancestors and sweep graves. Most Han people and some ethnic minorities visit graves in Tomb-Sweeping Day. This year's Tomb-Sweeping Day falls on the third day of the third lunar month, which reminds people of another day: "March 3rd". Therefore, there is a saying among the people: it is not appropriate to sweep the grave on Qingming this year! It is also rumored that on March 3, mothers will buy canned peaches and red cloth for their children. Canned peaches homonym "escape", which means "escape" from bad luck. And red cloth has always been a folk disaster relief method in China. Gong Jie, an expert in Xiamen folklore and former director of Xiamen Museum, told the reporter that this "two festivals" was just a coincidence, and the above-mentioned practice was totally unfounded, only a few people were far-fetched. "March 3rd" evolved from the Shangsi Festival in ancient China, and was fixed on the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar. It is a festival for people to eliminate disasters and seek happiness. This day usually appeared around Tomb-Sweeping Day in the past, but it was ignored by most people. With the passage of time, this day gradually evolved into an activity of offering sacrifices to the gods, and also became the day when the legendary Queen Mother held a flat peach party. So it is also called "the Millennium Festival of the Queen Mother". The traditional folk customs of this day are hiking, climbing mountains, visiting temple fairs and love songs. Therefore, "March 3rd", as a unique festival in China traditional culture, has been passed down to this day. Tomb-Sweeping Day and "March 3rd" are both traditional cultural festivals in China, and there is no such thing as "rushing". If there is any connection between them, it can only be said that both of them have the intention to go out for an outing. Because Tomb-Sweeping Day is not only a festival for people to pay homage to their ancestors, but also a spring ceremony to go for an outing, get close to nature and spur new life. According to the calendar, the probability that Tomb-Sweeping Day coincides with "March 3rd" is only once every 19 years.
