Time flies so fast, half of the Spring Festival has passed in a blink of an eye, and tomorrow is the seventh day of the first lunar month, many people have set foot on the job, and everyone thinks that the Spring Festival has passed. In fact, in the old tradition, the Spring Festival is far from over, according to legend, when Nuwa created people, the first six days were made chickens, dogs, sheep, pigs, cows and horses, and on the seventh day, people were created, so the old people believe that the seventh day of the first month is the birthday of human beings, commonly known as "human days".
It is for this reason that the ancients attached great importance to this day, and people set this day as "Rensheng Festival", "Renqing Festival", "Renri Festival" and so on. Everyone celebrates with a variety of folk activities to pray for a safe, healthy and auspicious new year for themselves and their families.
