3. "Fire Festival" in Axi, Yunnan Every year on the third day of the second lunar month, Axi people in Hongwan Village, who live in the arms of Yi Shan in Mile County, Yunnan Province, will hold a grand fire sacrifice ceremony. Their mysterious celebration of crazy return to nature and regard fire as the soul of all things can be called the carnival of the East. On the day of the sacrifice, the waiting adult men and underage boys in the village were divided into two groups and quietly gathered in the pre-selected hiding place outside the village to make up and tattoo. Most of the pigments they use for makeup are local red, yellow, white, black and brown, and the representative patterns are mainly animal and plant patterns and five-color serial patterns. Animal patterns show the villagers' animal worship, and the five-color serial patterns symbolize the worship of nature such as land, sun, moon, stars, wind, rain and lightning. They painted these colorful pigments all over their bodies according to various patterns, and knitted palm leaves and pine cone leaves into various animal-like patterns to wear on their heads, some of which were decorated with bird feathers and hides, and their waists were surrounded by "skirts" woven with palm leaves, brown pieces, rattan and flax. Others imitate primitive humans covering their bodies with bark and leaves, flapping and shouting wildly, spreading spiritual desires and releasing primitive passions, expressing the production and life process of ancient ancestors and praising a better life in an almost pious traditional way, and expressing the meaning of offering sacrifices to Vulcan with various strange gestures and body language.
