Introduction to the customs of the twelfth lunar month!Custom 1: Offering sacrifices to the Kitchen GodThe 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, also known as "Little New Year" in northern my country, is the traditional day for folk worship of the kitchen god. There is a traditional folk custom that "men do not worship the moon, and women do not worship the Kitchen God", so worshiping the Kitchen God is limited to men. Custom 2: Pasting window decorations The saying "paste the windows on the 25th" means that after sweeping the house on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, it is time to paste the windows on the 25th. Custom 3: Welcoming the Jade Emperor According to old customs, after the Kitchen God ascends to heaven (the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month), the Jade Emperor will personally descend to the mortal world on the 25th day of the 12th lunar month to investigate the good and evil in the world and determine the fortune and misfortune for the coming year. Therefore, every family offers sacrifices to him to pray for blessings, which is called "welcoming the Jade Emperor." Custom 4: Chasing away the chaos of the year After sending the Kitchen God to heaven, he is not welcomed back until New Year's Eve. During this period, there is no god to govern the world and there are no taboos. Traditionally, people often get married, which is called "driving away the chaotic year." Custom 5: Stewed Pork On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, the traditional Spring Festival custom is "stewed pork". Custom 6: Purchasing Spring Festival Supplies The twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month is the eve of Chinese New Year.
