At this time, the vitality is booming, the yin is declining, everything is "going to the old and welcoming the new", and the earth presents a scene full of spring, which is a good time to go for a walk in the spring and sweep the graves. Tomb-Sweeping Day, who worships his ancestors, is very long. There are two statements: 8 days before 10 and 10 days before 10. These nearly 20 days belong to Tomb-Sweeping Day who worships his ancestors.
Extended data:
Tomb-Sweeping Day began around the Zhou Dynasty. According to legend, astronomers in the Zhou Dynasty used the method of "returning to the earth" to determine the solar terms, and Qingming is one of them. Later, Jin Wengong and Zhong Er designated the first three days of Tomb-Sweeping Day as the Cold Food Festival to commemorate the loyal minister Jiexiu. Due to the proximity between Tomb-Sweeping Day and the Cold Food Festival, Qingming gradually merged into the custom of offering sacrifices to ancestors with cold food, and then gradually developed into today's Tomb-Sweeping Day.
Tomb-Sweeping Day's integration of natural solar terms and humanistic customs is a combination of humanistic and natural conditions, which fully embodies the Chinese ancestors' pursuit of harmony between heaven, earth and people, pays attention to conforming to the right time, place and people, and follows the laws of nature.
