When do you send cotton-padded clothes to your old friends?

Send cotton-padded clothes to old friends on the first day of October in the lunar calendar.

When the weather is cold, people prepare cotton-padded clothes for the winter. Imagine that ancestors also needed to keep out the cold in the underworld, so they folded paper into clothes and let them wear them after melting. This is called "sending cold clothes". Burning cold clothes on October 1 ST is a sign that people miss their old friends and carries the sympathy of the living for the dead. In the present words, I want to be filial, but people are gone. In this way, I miss my elders. )

About the lunar calendar:

The lunar calendar is one of the traditional calendars in China, also known as the old calendar, the Han calendar and the ancient calendar. After the Revolution of 1911, it was changed to the western solar calendar (Gregorian calendar), and the modern lunar calendar belongs to the combination of yin and yang.

In China's traditional calendar, the lunar calendar mainly refers to the calendar arranged according to the periodic changes of the moon phases, that is, the calendar with the first month of the lunar calendar as the basis for determining the calendar months and twelve calendar months in a year. In the process of the development and evolution of the calendar, it combined with the 24 solar terms in the trunk calendar to form the lunar calendar (Han calendar), which was used to guide agricultural production scientifically.
