Grain fullness customs: offering sacrifice to silkworms
According to legend, Grain Full is the birthday of the Silkworm God, so there is a Silkworm Prayer Festival in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas during the Grain Full solar term. my country's farming culture is typified by "men farming and women weaving".
The raw material for women's weaving is mainly cotton in the north and silkworm in the south. Silk is obtained by raising silkworms and spinning cocoons, so sericulture is extremely prosperous in rural areas in southern my country, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.
Silkworms are pampered "pets" and are difficult to keep alive. The weather, humidity, the coldness, ripeness, dryness or wetness of mulberry leaves all affect the survival of silkworms. Because silkworms are difficult to raise, they were considered "gifts from heaven" in ancient times.
