1, Origin: The 15th day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, which is also called the Lantern Festival because of the customs of hanging lanterns, lighting lanterns and watching lanterns. Lantern Festival is one of the traditional festivals in China, which existed in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago. The Lantern Festival in the East began in the period of Emperor Han Ming. Ming Di advocates Buddhism.

Moral: When people offer sacrifices to God on New Year's Eve, they should set up a "Heaven and Earth Hall". People set up a small shed in the yard, and on the small table in the shed stood the throne of God "Heaven, Earth, Three Realms and All Spirits"; There are incense burners and offerings in front of the shrine, and a lantern is hung to represent Jiang Taigong's seat. It is said that when Jiang Taigong was a god, everyone else was sealed, but he forgot to seal himself, so he had no seat and could only sit with God.
