Therefore, it is not recommended to visit the graves and worship the ancestors on the Double Ninth Festival in 2019! Why is Double Ninth Festival the Elderly Day?1. The Double Ninth Festival was formed as early as the Warring States Period. In the Tang Dynasty, the Double Ninth Festival was officially designated as a folk festival and has been passed down from dynasty to dynasty since then.2. The Double Ninth Festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar. “Jiujiu” has the same pronunciation as “long”, which means “long”. So the Double Ninth Festival is given the meaning of longevity and becomes a festival to bless the elderly. 3. In order to advocate the culture of respecting, honoring, loving and helping the elderly in the whole society, the Double Ninth Festival was officially designated as Senior Citizens' Day in 1989. This is a new expression of the Double Ninth Festival in China in the new era. 4. On December 28, 2012, the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China voted to pass the newly revised "Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of the Elderly." The law clearly states that the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar every year is Senior Citizens' Day. Sacrificial Rituals1. Place food, bowls, chopsticks, wine glasses, tea and other offerings on the graves of ancestors, and then light three incense sticks in front of the graves.2. Pour the first glass of wine after lighting the incense. After about 30 minutes or half of the incense is burned, one person will light three incense sticks for the second time and pour the second glass of wine. 3. When the incense is half burned, place offerings to the land god who looks after the grave, and then burn a piece of yellow paper to protect the ancestors from harm. 4. When the three incense sticks have burned out, remove the offerings and leave a small amount of money and other belongings to be burned on other graves to prevent other ghosts from stealing money and clothes from the ancestral graves after the people who visited the graves leave. Precautions 1. Do not laugh, play, run around or bump into anything around a cemetery. Doing so is not only impolite, but also disrespectful to the ancestors. Second, it is not advisable to wear bright red or bright green clothes, and pregnant women, the sick, and children under 7 years old should not go to sweep the graves. 3. What is usually said during the sacrifice: what you plan to do at the grave, why you do it, and the hope that the ancestors will bless you, and everything will go smoothly and peacefully. 2019 is the year of Tai Sui for those born in the Year of the Pig.
