What are the customs in Tibetan calendar year?

February 29th of Tibetan calendar 12 is the day of exorcism. On this day, god jumping meetings will be held in Potala Palace and Murulicang, ghosts will be fed in Lugu Lake Square, and grand god jumping activities will be held in various temples.

On the first night, every household held a torch and called for exorcism. Outside the gate, you should pour out the rest of the porridge and eat it as a meal, so that the ghosts of that year can go away. At the same time, every household should carry out a general cleaning to remove the garbage pollution in the past year.

Second, eat ancient pictures.

"Gu" means nine, here is twenty-nine, "Tu" means suddenly, and it is a kind of noodle porridge.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Tibetans eat ancient tu to mark the new year. Tumba has rocks, peppers, wool, charcoal and coins, which represent "heart of stone", "knife mouth", "soft heart", "black heart" and "making a fortune". People who eat these things should spit them out immediately, which will make everyone laugh and add a happy atmosphere to New Year's Eve.

Third, Zhaxiu

Before the Tibetan New Year, elderly women will wear bright red shirts instead of jewelry. No matter middle-aged or elderly women, there are two braids tied with "Zhaxiu". Young unmarried girls don't wear "state code" and braid their hair alone. The colors of "Zhaxiu" are bright, and the colors of shirts are also varied.

Four,? Carry "auspicious water"

On the first day of Tibetan New Year's Day, at six o'clock in the morning, before dawn, we got up with Lacey's sister and went to the well at the entrance to the village. According to local customs, whoever can grab the first bucket of water in the New Year will have a good year. Coincidentally, we really hit the first bucket of water. When we left, Lachi's sister put a piece of Baba on the tap, indicating that someone had hit the first bucket of water.

Fifth, change the prayer flag.

As a symbol of good luck, prayer flags need to be renewed every year. You can't just choose a new day. It is based on the Tibetan calendar, and you choose a good day after the first day of the new year in the Tibetan calendar. This morning, all the people in the hospital put on their holiday costumes and gathered on the roof to hold a grand and happy prayer flag insertion ceremony. In Tibetan, this ceremony is called "supporting the old age", which means offering sacrifices to the gods and praying for blessings.

Six? Spread Baba

When Tibetans celebrate the Tibetan calendar year, every household will put an auspicious wooden bucket on the Tibetan cabinet, called "Bamboo Suoqima". The barrel is filled with green trees, Zhuo Ma (ginseng fruit), etc. There are green tree spikes, wheat spike flower schools and a colorful spleen named "Zizhuo". The spleen is painted with patterns of the sun, the moon and the stars.

When neighbors, relatives and friends come to pay New Year's greetings, the host carries a "bamboo rope and horse", and the guests grab a little Ciba with their hands, smoke it into the air three times in a row, then put a little into their mouths, and then say "Tashildler" to express their blessings.

Seven, facing the Buddha

On the first day of New Year's Day, in order to pray for happiness in the coming year, many people came to the Jokhang Temple to worship Buddha. There is a Lama in the temple who plays drums. People offer Hada and add ghee to oil lamps.
