Story 1: Qingming Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It is not only a festival for people to pay tribute to their ancestors and remember the martyrs, but also a link for the Chinese nation to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and more importantly, to know their ancestors.
Look at your own shortcomings, correct yourself, and lead future generations. Feel the value of life, remove the dry branches and dead leaves left by the ancestors, retain the new shoots that can be used for reference, and promote positive energy. For generations, the date of correction is clear, April 4-6 of the solar calendar every year.
The Qingming Festival has a history of more than 2,500 years, and in ancient times, it was also called the Qingqing Festival, the March Festival, the Ancestor Worship Festival, the Tomb Sweeping Festival, the Tomb Sweeping Festival, the Ghost Festival, etc. [1] It is related to the Midyear Festival on July 15 and the Winter Clothes Festival on the first day of October, and is known as the three famous "ghost festivals" in China. Around April 5 of the Gregorian calendar is the Qingming Festival, which is one of the 24 solar terms.
Among the 24 solar terms, only Qingming is both a solar term and a festival.
In 2013, the Qingming Festival was included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists.
Story 2: The name of the Qingming Festival is related to the characteristics of the weather at this time. In the "Huainanzi Tianwenxun" of the Western Han Dynasty, it is said:
Fifteen days after the vernal equinox, the bucket finger B, then the Qingming wind arrives. "Qingming wind" is a refreshing and clear wind. "One Hundred Questions of the Year" says, "All things grow at this time, they are clean and clear."
Therefore, it is called Qingming. Although Qingming as a festival was only formed in the Tang Dynasty, the Qingming solar term as a time sequence symbol has long been recognized by the ancients, and it has been clearly recorded in the Han Dynasty.
The 24 solar terms are the climatic laws summarized by ancient Chinese astronomers and people in their lives and production, which more appropriately reflect the changes in temperature, phenology, rainfall and other aspects of the four seasons of the year, and have indispensable guiding significance for people to arrange farming, sericulture and other activities in time. When it comes to Qingming, the temperature warms up and the rainfall increases, which is the season of spring plowing and spring planting. Therefore, Qingming is an important solar term for ancient agricultural production.
The agricultural proverb says, "Before and after the Qingming Festival, order melons and plant beans" and "Planting trees and afforestation, it is better than the Qingming Festival", which is exactly what he said. The Eastern Han Dynasty Cui "Four People's Moon Order" recorded: "Qingming Festival, order silkworm concubines, silkworm control room... It is said that at this time the preparation for silkworm breeding began.
Among them, the "Qingming Festival" is just a solar term, not a festival.
The Qingming solar term provides important conditions for the formation of Qingming festival customs in terms of time and weather characteristics, and it is regarded as one of the sources of the Qingming Festival.
In traditional Chinese culture, Qingming Festival is a festival to commemorate ancestors and deceased relatives. The main commemorative ceremony is tomb sweeping, accompanied by activities such as walking and planting trees, which embodies the meaning of drinking water and thinking about the source, uniting ethnic groups, welcoming spring fitness and caring for nature. >>>More
