Do the Buyi people celebrate the Spring Festival, and the Spring Festival customs of the Buyi people

Because I myself am a Buyi tribe, I am here with you. We are celebrating the Spring Festival I also wonder why you have such an idea, each ethnic minority has two fixed festivals, the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, there may be some ethnic groups with different names, but they all have. The Spring Festival of the Buyi people has strong ethnic characteristics, and there are also many sticky rice unique to the Buyi people.

I am intercepting this passage in the hope that it can help you.

The Spring Festival is the most solemn festival of the Buyi people.

In the past, some areas of the Buyi ethnic group began with November, and some began with December, that is, the Chinese New Year was in November or December. In the past 100 years, it has gradually changed to the first month of the year.

In the early morning of New Year's Day, women rush to the well to pick up "New Year's water", also known as "smart water". It is believed that whoever picks the first load of water first will be happy during the year. On the second day of the first lunar month, young people wear beautiful new clothes to the edge of the village, the mountainside, and the Tianba to play with the watch, sing songs, blow wooden leaves, sing "tube songs", kick chicken feathers, throw flower bags, etc.

From the first to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, various cultural and entertainment activities are mainly carried out. These activities have certain local differences, mainly including playing dragon lanterns, playing lions, jumping on the ground, performing Buyi operas, singing lanterns, playing Mao Yu, swinging, stepping on stilts, playing tops, singing songs, etc., among them, the traditional entertainment is to beat the copper drum. There are many Buyi villages, from the first day of the first month to the end of the month, every day according to the special copper drum tune to fight the copper drum entertainment.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there are two important activities: one is that the whole village gathers to celebrate, hand over the copper drum, take turns to whom's house, and carry out the handover ceremony of the copper drum on this day. The second is to sacrifice ancestors with wine and meat, and eat "oil dumplings".

Chinese New Year", symbolizing the harmony and unity of the family and the successful conclusion of the Spring Festival. Thank you.

Introduced from the Han people.

Most regions have incorporated the New Year into the Spring Festival. Every lunar month, every household is busy making wine, making glutinous rice cakes, marinating bacon, making blood tofu, or sewing new clothes.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the ancestors are worshipped with sumptuous wine and food, and firecrackers are set off. On the first day of the first lunar month, there is a custom that girls compete to carry the first load of water home (called "smart water"), and boys compete to go to the land temple and bring small stones with ropes to put them into the corral (meaning "six animals are prosperous").

During the New Year, young people were invited to go out to "Lang Shao Lang Mao"; Middle-aged and elderly people congratulate each other on New Year's greetings and drink together. In some places, entertainment activities such as dragon playing, lion dance, horse racing, stone throwing, copper drums, suona, singing and dancing, basketball and so on are also held. Generally, after the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, they begin to work in the fields.

The Spring Festival customs of the Buyi people are as follows:

1. Laba sacrifices to the god of the land.

The sacrificial activities are generally led by the village elders, and each family raises funds to participate, and invites Mo Gong to preside over the sacrificial ceremony nearby.

2. Kill the pig on the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month.

The Buyi people are very particular about killing New Year's pigs, one is to choose auspicious days, kill single and not double; the second is to select a butcher, and to be able and well-destined (people who have children and daughters and have children) can kill New Year pigs; The third is the pig killing day, that is, the day of the zodiac pig or the day of the zodiac of the main labor force in the family can not kill the pig. The owner of the pig will come to "eat soup" (pig rice).

3. The twenty-sixth day of the lunar month "brushes the spring".

"Yangchun" refers to the bead net and dust on the eaves and the entrance of the building. "Brushing Yang Chun" is to thoroughly clean up the old dust of last year and usher in a new year. On the day of "Brushing Yangchun", the whole family worked together to thoroughly clean several houses, and the family welcomed the new year with a new look.

Characteristics of the Buyi ethnic group

The Buyi people believe in their ancestors and a variety of gods. Mountains, waters, wells, caves, and strangely growing ancient trees are all believed to be the embodiment of the gods. Each village has a land temple.

Some specific religious ceremonies are to worship sacred bamboo. The Buyi people in various places also worship the god of thunder, the god of the door, the god of the stove, the dragon king and so on. These reflect the original religious beliefs of the Buyi as an agrarian people.

The Buyi people eat rice as their staple food, as well as corn, wheat, barnyard and buckwheat. The Buyi people are especially fond of glutinous food, and have a variety of production methods, such as making glutinous rice cakes, round sugar cakes, ear block cakes, pillow dumplings and triangular rice dumplings. During the New Year's holidays, glutinous rice must be eaten, and glutinous rice cakes are given to relatives and friends.

During the festival, they also like to eat various "sticky rice" dyed with flower juice and leaf juice.
