What festival is the fifth day of the first month, and what are the customs?
1, offering sacrifices to the god of wealth
Sacrificing the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the first month is not only a tradition in the south, but also in many places in the north of China. The God of Wealth is also called the Five-way God. The so-called five-way god refers to the east, west, north and south, which means that you can get money when you go out five ways. Five-way gods are worshippers of household gods, kitchen gods, land gods, door gods and mind-wandering. At 0: 00 on the fifth day of the first month, many people will set off firecrackers to welcome the God of Wealth.
Step 2 Eat jiaozi
Besides New Year's Eve, the fifth day of the first month is called "Breaking Five", and jiaozi is also eaten. There is a saying that there are many taboos in the days from the first day to the fifth day, so people should not "act rashly". Once the fifth day is over, the New Year's Eve dinner is basically over, so they are no longer taboo and want to eat jiaozi's congratulations.
Especially in Tianjin and its nearby areas (such as Cangzhou City), there is a custom of "covering jiaozi and holding the mouth of the villain", saying that the villain should shut up and speak less ill in the coming year.
