Some ethnic zodiac (animal calendar) due to different regions and different, such as Li most of the regions of the twelve zodiac (animal calendar) and before the same, while the Maodao Li is "worm" instead of "tiger", "cat" instead of "rabbit", "cat" instead of "tiger", "cat" instead of "rabbit", "cat" instead of "rabbit". The Maodo Li use "insect" to replace "tiger", "cat" to replace "rabbit", "fish" to replace "snake", "meat" to replace "horse", "meat" to replace "horse", "meat" to replace "horse", "meat" to replace "horse".

The order is: tiger, rabbit, pangolin (dragon), snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, pig, rat, ox. In addition to one difference (now there is a "dragon" instead of "pangolin"), the order is also different from the previous. The Yi people of the Lamentable Mountains

The reason why the "tiger" as the first, it is said to be because they consider themselves to be the children and grandchildren of the tiger, respect for the mother tiger as the first phase of its. Every three years held a festival ceremony, to be selected in the tiger month (the first month) of the first tiger day, in the local mother tiger temple held

line. Every house is painted with the shape of a tiger on the door to show respect for the tiger. It is for this reason that there is such an order. If the order is pushed forward or backward, still the same as before. And Guisi Yi zodiac (beast calendar) is: dragon,

[1]. The ordering of the lions and snakes is the same as in India, with the substitution of "flamingo" for "golden-winged bird" [2]. [2]. The zodiac (animal calendar) of other nations or countries has the "lion" in the order of

"tiger", and the "red crane" in the order of

"rooster". "Rooster. That is to say, located in the former order are beasts, and located in the latter order are birds. It is assumed that the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac (animal calendar) around the world have the same

source.

The twelve signs of the zodiac when the origin of the twelve animal calendar, the origin is very ancient. Geographically, the four ancient civilizations of Asia and Africa, including Egypt, Babylon, India and China, happen to be within the scope of its popularity. Its circulation

of the region is as wide as Asia, Europe, Africa continent, but mainly concentrated in Asia. From this, it is reasonable to assume that the culture originated in one of the Asian peoples, and then spread gradually, and was successively accepted by many of the peoples of this vast region

. However, the question of which people created the culture in the first place remains a mystery.

Question 2: Halloween represents what the Chinese zodiac In folklore, the silver can test the claim of poison is widely spread. As early as in the Song Dynasty, the famous forensic scientist Song Ci's "Wash Grievance Collected Records" in the record of the use of silver needles to check the corpse. To this day, some people often use silver chopsticks to test whether the food is poisonous, there is a silverware can test the traditional concept of poison, which was also cited as a criterion for forensic examination. Silver can really test poison?　Ancient people referred to the poison, mainly refers to the highly toxic arsenic, arsenic trioxide, the ancient production technology is backward, resulting in arsenic are accompanied by a small amount of sulfur and sulfide. The sulfur contained in the silver and silver contact, can be a chemical reaction, so that the surface of the silver needle to generate a layer of black "silver sulfide", to the modern era, the production of arsenic technology than the ancient times to be much more progressive, refining is very pure, no longer participate in the sulfur and sulfide. Silver metal chemical properties are very stable, under normal conditions will not react with arsenic.　Visible, the ancients with silver detection of poison is subject to historical and scientific limitations. Some items do not contain poison, but contains a lot of sulfur, such as egg yolks, silver needle *** to go will also turn black. On the contrary, some are very poisonous items, but does not contain sulfur, such as poisonous mushrooms, nitrites, pesticides, poisonous rats, cyanide, etc., silver needle and their contact, will not appear black reaction. Therefore, the silver needle can not identify poisons, not to mention can not be used as a tool for drug testing.　Although silver can not test poison, but can be sterilized. Each liter of water as long as contains 50 millionths of a milligram of silver ions, can make most of the bacteria in the water to death. The principle is that silver in the water can form positively charged ions, can adsorb bacteria in the water, and gradually enter the bacterial body, so that its catalyst -? system closed, inactivated, so that bacteria lose the ability to metabolize and die. Therefore, the use of silver as bowls, chopsticks used in daily life is still a great benefit.

The holiday is mainly popular in English-speaking worlds such as the British Isles and North America, followed by Australia and New Zealand.

Origins of the holiday

First statement

Method Method There are many versions of the legend about the origin of Halloween, the most common belief is that it originated in the countries of ancient Western Europe before the birth of Christ, Halloween Spooky Dogs

[1] Mainly including Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, which were called Celtic by the ancient Western Europeans. Celtic New Year's Day is on November 1, New Year's Eve, the Celts let the young people set the team, wearing a variety of strange masks, carrying carved turnip lamps (pumpkin lamps is a later custom, the earliest ancient Western Europe did not have pumpkins), they wandered through the villages. This was actually a celebration of the fall harvest at that time; it was also said to be the "Ghost Festival", and legend has it that the souls of those who died that year would visit people on the eve of Halloween, and it was said that people should let the ghosts of those who visited them see a successful harvest and present them with sumptuous hospitality. All bonfires and lamps were built to scare the ghosts away, but also to light their way and guide them back. In medieval Central Europe, there was a history of Christianity destroying the pagans. But the ritual celebrations before New Year's Eve were never really eliminated, though in the form of witchcraft. That's why we still have traces of witches' brooms, black cats, and spells in our current Halloween. It is said that meeting a black cat on that day is the same as meeting a witch, and you will have bad luck for a year, so on that day, everyone has to dress up in disguise to drive away those unlucky symbols.

The second theory

More than two thousand years ago, the Catholic Church in Europe, November 1 as the "day of the world's saints" (ALL HALLOWS DAY). "HALLOW" means saints. Legend has it that since 500 B.C., the Celts, who lived in Ireland and Scotland, moved the holiday forward one day, to October 31st. They believed that the day is the official end of summer, that is, the beginning of the New Year, the beginning of the harsh winter. It was believed that on this day the dead souls of the deceased would return to their homelands to find life in the living and regenerate themselves, and that this was the only hope for regeneration after death. The living are afraid that the dead souls will come to take over their lives, so people will extinguish the fire and candles on this day so that the dead souls can't find the living, and they will dress up as demons to scare away the souls of the dead. Afterward, they would rekindle the fires and candles to start the new year. Legend has it that Celtic tribes also killed the living on October 31st to honor the dead. To the 1st century AD, the occupation of the Celtic tribes territory of the Romans also gradually accepted the Halloween customs, but from then on to abolish the barbaric practice of burning the living to sacrifice the dead. While the Romans celebrated harvest festivals in conjunction with Celtic rituals, wearing scary masks and dressing up as animals or ghosts, it was a way to chase away the demons that roamed around them. This is how Halloween came to be celebrated today by most people around the globe in a ghoulish getup. As time passed, the meaning of Halloween gradually changed, becoming more positive and happy, with festive connotations dominating. The idea of dead souls looking for replacements to return to the world was gradually discarded and forgotten. To this day, the images and drawings that symbolize Halloween, such as witches and black cats, mostly have friendly, cute and funny faces.

The third theory

The Celts (Celtic) believed that the sun god helped them grow crops. However, every year the Sun God was attacked and imprisoned for six months by an evil force called Samhain, also known by two titles, "Lord of the Dead" and "Prince of Darkness". Samhain, who also held two titles, "Lord of the Dead" and "Prince of Darkness", came to the Celtic lands with a cold and dark winter. The Celts feared the night of October 31 because they felt that there were evil spirits lurking everywhere. They built fires in their homes to keep those evil spirits out of their homes. (The last untranslated passage had a line about flames scaring the spirits away.) They believed it was Samhain that called the dead out, and they also believed that Samhain would change the dead into something else, like a cat. The Celts would put on scary disguises to drive the group of evil spirits away. (This is the archetype of Halloween.) After Rome occupied the Celtic lands, the Roman holiday was combined with the Celtic festival of Samhain on October 31st to become ...... >>

Question 6: When is Halloween what does it mean? In Western countries, on October 31 every year, there is a "Halloween", the dictionary explains as "The eve of All Saints' Day The dictionary explains it as "The eve of All Saints' Day", which is translated as "Halloween Night" in Chinese. Halloween is a traditional holiday in Western countries. It is the most haunted night of the year, so it is also called "Ghost Festival".

More than two thousand years ago, the Catholic Church in Europe designated November 1 as "the day of the world's saints" (ALL HALLOWS DAY). "HALLOW" is the meaning of the saints. Legend has it that since 500 B.C., the Celts, who lived in Ireland and Scotland, moved the holiday forward one day, to October 31st. They believed that the day is the official end of summer, that is, the beginning of the New Year, the beginning of the harsh winter. It was believed that on this day the dead souls of the deceased would return to their homelands to find life in the living and regenerate themselves, and that this was the only hope for regeneration after death. The living are afraid that the dead souls will come to take over their lives, so people will extinguish the fire and candles on this day so that the dead souls can't find the living, and they will dress up as demons to scare away the souls of the dead. Afterward, they would rekindle the fires and candles to start the new year. Legend has it that the Celtic tribes also had the custom of killing the living on October 31st to honor the dead.

By the 1st century AD, the Romans, who occupied the territory of the Celtic tribes, also gradually accepted the custom of Halloween, but then abolished the barbaric practice of burning the living and sacrificing the dead. While the Romans celebrated harvest festivals in conjunction with Celtic rituals, wearing scary masks and dressing up as animals or ghosts, it was a way to chase away the demons that roamed around them. This is how Halloween came to be celebrated today by most people around the globe in a ghoulish getup. As time passed, the meaning of Halloween gradually changed, becoming more positive and happy, with festive connotations dominating. The idea of dead souls looking for replacements to return to the world was gradually discarded and forgotten. Today, the image of Halloween is symbolized by images and drawings such as witches and black cats, most of which have friendly, cute and funny faces.

Origin of Halloween

Before the Christian era, the Celts held ceremonies at the end of the summer to give thanks to the gods and the sun for their bounty. The soothsayers of the time lit and practiced witchcraft to ward off the demons and ghosts that were said to be roaming around. Later, the harvest festival, celebrated by the Romans with nuts and apples, merged with the Celtic October 31st to become Halloween.

The most legendary version of the origin of Halloween is that it originated in the countries of ancient Western Europe before the birth of Christ, including mainly Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The ancient Western Europeans in these places were called Druids. The Druidic New Year was on November 1, and on New Year's Eve, the Druids had their young men gather in teams, wearing all kinds of grotesque masks and carrying carved turnip lamps (pumpkin lamps were a later custom, and there were no pumpkins in ancient Western Europe in the earliest days), and they wandered through the villages. This was actually a celebration of the fall harvest at that time; it was also said to be the "Ghost Festival", and legend has it that the souls of those who died that year would visit the world on the eve of Halloween, and it was said that people should let the ghosts of those who visited them see a successful harvest and present them with sumptuous hospitality. All bonfires and lights are used to scare the ghosts away, but also to light up the route for the ghosts and guide them back.

In medieval Central Europe, there was a history of Christianity destroying the pagans. But the ritual celebrations before New Year's Eve were never really eliminated, though in the form of witchcraft. That's why we still have traces of witches' brooms, black cats, and spells in our current Halloween.

Legends of Halloween

The night before Halloween means Holy Night. However, for various reasons, Halloween Eve has turned into one of the most popular and favorite holidays of the year, which is celebrated with great enthusiasm by many players.

Halloween, which falls on October 31, is actually a holiday that celebrates autumn, much like Maypole is a holiday that celebrates spring. The ancient priests of Gaul, Britain and Ireland, the Druids, had a great festival in praise of autumn, which began at midnight on October 31st and lasted all day the following day, November 1st. They believed that on that night their great god of death, Saman, summoned all the ghosts of those who had died that year, and that these evil spirits were to be punished by being consigned to the life of beasts. Surely the mere thought of such a ghostly gathering was enough to make the simple-minded fools of the time tremble with fear. So they lit a bonfire in the sky and kept a close watch on these evil spirits.

That's how the idea that there were witches and ghosts everywhere on Halloween night began. It is still believed today in certain isolated parts of Europe ...... >>

Question 7: When is Halloween? What does it mean! Halloween Eve falls on October 31st each year and is a traditional holiday in the English-speaking world, popular mainly in North America, the British Isles, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. On that night children dress up in costumes and masks and go door-to-door collecting candy. Chinese-speaking regions often mistakenly refer to All Hallows' Eve as Halloween.

All Hallows' Eve is often associated with spirits. Europe traditionally considers Halloween to be the time when the ghostly world is closest to earth, a legend similar to the Chinese Bon Festival. Anoka, Minnesota, USA is known as the "Halloween Capital of the World" and celebrates with a large parade every year.

Halloween activities:

Trick-or-treating

The main activity on All Hallows' Eve is trick-or-treating, where children dress up in a variety of scary costumes. Children dress up in scary costumes and go door-to-door, ringing their neighbors' doorbells, screaming "Trick or Treat!" and the host family (who may also be dressed in scary costumes) pulls out some candy, chocolates, or small gifts. Some families even use sound effects and smoke machines to create a scary atmosphere. Children often get bags of candy for the night, and carry them home in whole bags.

The game of Trick or Treat originated in Ireland. Ancient Irish pagans believed that on the night before Halloween, ghosts would gather around homes and receive a feast. Therefore, after the "feast", the villagers would dress up as ghosts and spirits and walk around the village to guide the ghosts away and avoid evil spirits. At the same time, the villagers would also put some fruits and other foodstuffs in front of and behind their houses to feed the ghosts, so that they would not harm human beings and animals, or plunder other harvests. This custom was later continued and became a "Trick or Treat" game for children to make fun of ungenerous merchants or families.

In Scotland, children would ask for candy by saying: The sky is blue, the grass is green, may we have our Halloween. (The sky is blue, the grass is green, come together to celebrate Halloween night.) They would then sing and dance and perform to win the candy.

Often, while the kids are playing Trick or Treat, the teens are going to various parties, such as costume parties.

Traditional Halloween costumes include zombies, ghosts, witches, and demons. Typical costumes cover

Halloween costumes a piece of cloth with two eye holes cut out to pretend to be a ghost. In the 19th century in Scotland and Ireland, people believed that ghosts would come to earth on Halloween Eve, so they would dress up like ghosts, so that the ghosts would take themselves as their own kind. In recent years, Halloween costumes are no longer limited to horror, but can be dressed up as anything, such as TV or movie stars, as well as public figures, such as politicians. 2004 coincided with the U.S. presidential election, George W. Bush and John Kerry became popular in the United States. George W. Bush and John Kerry became popular Halloween costumes in the United States. And after the September 11 attacks in 2001, firefighters and police officers became popular for children to play as.

Launched in 1950, the program is a fundraising money box that is distributed to children through schools so that they can collect donations while begging for candy. It is estimated that more than $119 million has been raised since its launch.

BIGresearch, a research organization, conducted a survey for the National Retail Federation, which found that 53.3% of shoppers will shop for Halloween 2005, with a flat $38.11, $10 higher than last year's, which translates to $3.3 billion spent by U.S. consumers for Halloween 2005.
