Qingming Festival (QingMing Jie)

Qingming Festival, also known as outing Festival, Xingqing Festival, March Festival and ancestor worship Festival, is held at the turn of mid spring and late spring. Qingming Festival originated from the ancestors' beliefs and Spring Festival rites and customs in ancient times. It has both natural and humanistic connotations. It is not only a natural solar term, but also a traditional festival. Tomb sweeping and ancestor worship and outing are the two major etiquette and customs themes of Qingming Festival. These two traditional etiquette and customs themes have been inherited in China since ancient times.

Qingming Festival is an ancient festival of the Chinese nation. It is not only a solemn festival for tomb sweeping and ancestor worship, but also a happy festival for people to get close to nature, go outing and enjoy the fun of spring. Douzhi B (or taiyanghuang meridian up to 15 °) is the Qingming solar term, and the festival time is before and after April 5 of the Gregorian calendar. In this season, the vitality is exuberant, the Yin Qi is declining, and all things "spit out the old and accept the new". The Earth presents the image of spring and scenery. It is a good time for youth tours and tomb sacrifices in the suburbs. The Qingming ancestor worship Festival lasts for a long time. There are two versions: 10 days before, 8 days after and 10 days before and 10 days after. These nearly 20 days belong to the Qingming ancestor worship Festival.

Qingming Festival is a traditional major Spring Festival. Tomb sweeping and ancestor remembrance have been a fine tradition of the Chinese nation since ancient times. It is not only conducive to carrying forward filial piety and family affection and awakening the common memory of the family, but also promote the cohesion and identity of family members and even the nation. Qingming Festival integrates natural solar terms and humanistic customs. It is the unity of time, place and people. It fully reflects the thought of the ancestors of the Chinese nation in pursuing the harmonious unity of "heaven, earth and people", and paying attention to conforming to the appropriate time and place and following the laws of nature.

Qingming Festival, the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid Autumn Festival are known as China's four traditional festivals. In addition to China, there are some countries and regions in the world that also celebrate the Qingming Festival, such as Vietnam, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and so on.

In the early era of observing and timing, when determining the age according to the star shift, the handle rotates clockwise, which is called one year old (photo). Tianwei Jianyuan began with Yin. For example, according to the astronomy training of Huainan Zi: "emperor Zhang Siwei, carry it to fight, move the moon for an hour and return to its place. The first month refers to Yin, December refers to ugliness, and turn at the age of one year, and it starts again and again". In traditional culture, Yin position is the "gen position" of the acquired eight trigrams. It is the position of the first intersection of all years, representing the end and beginning. Yi shuoguazhuan: "gen, the divination of the northeast, is the end and beginning of all things." Therefore, the handle of the Big Dipper starts from the moon of "Jianyin" pointing due east by North, and then rotates clockwise and goes back and forth; At the end of the year, December refers to the ugly side, and the first month returns to Yin again, all over again. The Big Dipper rotates in a circle, the handle returns to Yin, the Qianyuan Dynasty sets sail, and then returns to the Spring Festival. When the bucket handle points to the "B" position due east by south, it is the Qingming solar term. In the solar term of Qingming Festival, everything is clean, vigorous, fresh and fresh, and the temperature rises. The Earth shows the image of spring and Jingming.
