The sixth day of the Lunar New Year welcomes the beginning of the new year
The sixth day of the Lunar New Year, for many, is the real start of the new year. After the celebration of Chinese New Year's Eve, Spring Festival and the fifth day of the new year, the sixth day of the new year seems to be a continuation of the taste of the year and a new starting point. In traditional Chinese culture, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year has a unique meaning and symbolism.
First of all, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is the day to send the poor. In ancient China, it was believed that at the beginning of the new year, the poverty and bad fortune of the old year should be sent away in order to welcome the good luck and abundance of the new year. Therefore, on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, people will do a big cleaning, tidy up the house, and wash the belongings, which means to send away poverty and welcome wealth.
Secondly, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is also a good day to open. Many businesses and businesses will choose to reopen on this day, as in Chinese culture, six represents smoothness and success. They believe that opening on this day will bring good luck and prosperity for the year.
In addition, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is also an important social day. On this day, people visit friends and family, exchange gifts, and share the joy and blessings of the New Year. This kind of exchange of visits not only strengthens the connection and emotional exchange between people, but also makes people feel warm and loved in the new year.
Of course, there are many other customs and activities on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. For example, some places hold events such as temple fairs, flower markets, and so on, where people can enjoy various performances and exhibitions. These activities not only enrich people's cultural life, but also inherit traditional Chinese culture.
In my opinion, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is an important day, it is not only the beginning of the new year, but also a symbol of people's spiritual sustenance and expectations. By sending away poverty and welcoming wealth, people express their yearning and pursuit of a better life. And through mutual visits and social activities, people spread love and care, and strengthen the connection between people. On this day full of hope and energy, let's welcome the new year together and look forward to a new beginning.
