Brief introduction of the tenth day of the first month

On the 10th day of the first lunar month, one of the traditional folk festivals in China is called Stone Festival, which is the birthday of the stone god. It is called "Stone Mill Day", "Ten-Child Day" and "Stone Immortality". On this day, it is not allowed to move stones and stone tools such as grinding, grinding and mortar, otherwise common beliefs will hurt crops.

On this day, it is also forbidden to build houses with stones, and there is a custom of burning incense and offering pancakes to stones at noon. In other places, the custom of lifting the stone gods is popular: on the ninth night, a crock is frozen on a smooth stone, and on the tenth morning, ten girls or boys take turns lifting the crock. If the stone never falls, it indicates a bumper harvest in the new year; If a stone falls to the ground, it indicates a bad year. The tenth day of the first month is also called the rat wedding day, commonly known as the ten fingers.
