What day is Tomb-Sweeping Day?

1. Historical data prove that before the Gregorian calendar was used (before Gregorian calendar 19 12), there were already Tomb-Sweeping Day in China, and China officially used the lunar calendar at that time, so Tomb-Sweeping Day obviously belonged to the lunar calendar and was calculated according to the lunar calendar.

2. Since Tomb-Sweeping Day belongs to the lunar calendar, when is Tomb-Sweeping Day in the lunar calendar?

Tomb-Sweeping Day is on the Qingming Festival in the lunar calendar, that is, the day when the sun sees the yellow meridian as 15 degrees. Because the lunar calendar is a collection of solar calendar and lunar calendar with strict astronomical calendar nature, solar terms and lunar calendar are all part of it. Although the lunar calendar stipulates that Tomb-Sweeping Day is the solar term in the third month of the lunar calendar, it occurs between February 14 and March 16 of the lunar calendar. Tomb-Sweeping Day is not "fixed" on the Gregorian calendar, and it will fluctuate for two or three days, because Tomb-Sweeping Day is a festival strictly regulated by the ecliptic in China, and the Gregorian calendar is not strict, so it will fluctuate for two or three days. Tomb-Sweeping Day is not suitable on the Gregorian calendar, which shows that Tomb-Sweeping Day's calculation is different from the Gregorian calendar, because the lunar calendar and the Gregorian calendar belong to two different calendars. Qingming may appear between April 4 and April 6 of the Gregorian calendar.
