What's the festival on March 3rd … Tell me quickly.
Valentine's Day on March 3rd: Valentine's Day on March 3rd of the lunar calendar: Valentine's Day on March 3rd has a long history. There is a poem to prove it. Li Bai's poem says: "When you swallow, Qin E dreams of breaking Qin Louyue; Qin family, every year in the second quarter of the moon, the willow color by the bridge is printed with seven windows for farewell. In the clear autumn festival in Leyuan Scenic Area, the ancient Xianyang Road is absolutely silent. "The annual willow color here refers to Valentine's Day on the third day of the third lunar month. Through this poem, we can see how romantic Valentine's Day is in China: what kind of state is it when a couple strolls on the balcony in a beautiful and picturesque day, giving each other gifts of breaking willows and whistling incessantly? ! Not only that, a long time ago in our country, relatives and friends had the habit of giving gifts to each other when they parted, and there was a poem to prove it: "The willows gave them away for no reason. "Visible, love is willow, willow is love. The common people call the wandering waves of many lovers chasing flowers and asking for willows, which is from this. Today, although we can't see the love objects and scenes of ancient people, there are countless love poems and love songs that can make us memorable. In addition, among some ethnic minorities, the custom of singing on March 3rd still exists. Yunnan ethnic minorities, on the third day of the third lunar month, many beautiful boys and girls make love to songs in droves, give each other tokens and meet in the depths of the jungle. This scene is only similar to Valentine's Day in Europe and America. March Song Festival: The third day of the third lunar month, also known as "March Song Festival" or "March Song Festival", is a traditional song festival of Zhuang nationality. There are several regular folk song gatherings of Zhuang nationality every year, such as the 15th day of the first month, the 3rd day of March, the 8th day of April and the 15th day of August, among which the 3rd day of March is the most grand. On this day, every household will cook colorful glutinous rice, color eggs and celebrate festivals. Songs usually last for two or three days at a time and are located in an open space not far from the village. Bamboo and cloth were used to build a singing studio to receive singers from other villages. Duets are mainly composed of unmarried young men and women, but old people and children come to watch and entertain. There are one or two thousand people in the small song fair and tens of thousands in the big one. Beside Ge Wei, vendors gather and folk trade is active. The people nearby provided accommodation for those who came to arrest Ge Wei, and they were warmly received whether they knew him or not. A large-scale song concert was attended by dozens of young men and women in Fiona Fang, with a sea of people and songs, which was really lively. Qiao Ye has always been a big song fair in Tianyang County. People go to song parties to compete and enjoy songs; Young men and women sing, and if they hit it off with each other, they give each other tokens as tokens of their love. In addition, there are interesting activities such as throwing hydrangeas and touching eggs. Throwing hydrangeas is mainly for entertainment, but also as a symbol of love. The girl took a fancy to a young man and threw the hydrangea to him. Touching eggs is to have fun with each other, and it is also a promise. The Song Festival is a grand gathering of people's trade and national culture. 1985, the district people's government designated March 3rd as Guangxi National Arts Festival. The legend of "Fu Nian Fu" of the Li nationality tells that a long time ago, Qizhiling area suffered a rare drought, and people lived like a year. One morning, a young man named Yayin told everyone that he dreamed of a lark. In order to get rid of this disaster, he had to climb to the top of Wuzhishan and blow his nose to trap him. Yabu volunteered to climb to the top of Wuzhishan, where he played his beloved nose flute. It blew for three days and nights until a lark flew out of the valley. ADB is scrambling to catch up. He chased a hill. Finally, ADB saw that the lark had become a very beautiful Li girl. The girl promised to go to earth with ADB to save the disaster. After the drought was lifted, I didn't expect it, but I angered the Lord. He sent his servant to catch Miss Lark. At this time, ADB came, and they hid in a cave. When the master ordered the servants to burn to the cave, suddenly dark clouds rolled, thunder rumbled, rocks cracked, and landslides broke out, and the evil master and servants were killed. ADB and Miss Bailing became a pair of birds and flew into the sky. The villagers heard the news, looked at them, sang and danced excitedly, and wished them happiness. This day is the third day of the third lunar month, and has since become a traditional festival of the Li family. In order to celebrate March 3, the preparations should be carried out half a month in advance. The man went hunting in the mountains, salted and sealed his prey; Women rub rice at home to make zongba; Young men and women prepare beautiful clothes and betrothal gifts. Prey and zongzi are offered as sacrifices to ancestors in the auditorium. If the hunting fails, it will be changed to killing chickens and sacrificed by clan elders. On the day of the festival, Li people gather together to wish the "mountain orchid" (mountain upland rice) and hunting a double harvest. The old people came to the most popular nursing home in the village with pickled mountain flavor and brewed glutinous rice wine, sat on the floor and drank on banana and papaya leaves in Jianghuai and Jiangnan areas on March 3, the Ghost Festival. Every year, the third day of the third lunar month is called Ghost Festival, and it is said that ghosts haunt this day. At night, every household sets off firecrackers in every household to scare away ghosts and drive them away. Other ethnic groups, such as Shui, Miao, Mulao and Maonan, have their own traditional festivals and customs on March 3rd. —————————————————————————————————————— After Tomb-Sweeping Day, "March 3rd", the grass grows willow green. By the river where Qin (town) water and Wei (Wei) water meet, there is a plough of light rain and three paths of light clouds, and everything is budding. Chun Qing has blossomed, and the new fragrance of spring mud, spring grass, peach blossom and apricot blossom on both sides of the river is getting stronger and stronger. On the other side of the river, the annual ceremony to eliminate disasters and ward off evil spirits is being held, and young people are chasing each other or playing in the water. At this time, a pair of young men and women walked on the soft grass, each holding an orchid, and strolled to the river with a message, coming together. The girl looked up and asked the boy naughtily, why don't you go there for the meeting? The boy said that he had been there. The girl said: Go again! If we go to Qinshui first and then Qinshui, it will be a big and fun scene! The boy agreed and gave her a bunch of peony flowers. Then they took the girl's hand and walked side by side to the depths of the distant flower forest ... This scene happened in the sitcom of Zhou Dynasty in China about 2,500 years ago, when the poets recorded in The Book of Songs Zheng Yan: "Qin and Yan, Fang Huan. Female scholar, Fang Bingxi. The woman said, "Be careful"? Scholars say "both". "Let's have a look and enjoy it." Wizards and women, Ikey teased each other and fed them a spoonful of medicine. "On March 3rd, in Chun Qing, women and men took advantage of the recovery of everything, played by Qingxi, met on an outing, and gave each other tokens of love. On March 3, healthy, unrestrained and natural love rippled from Qinhe River and Chanhe River. Later generations attach great importance to this poem, thinking that it is China's way of life on Valentine's Day on March 3rd. Because of this poem, two streams of water that flowed into the Shuanghe River after meeting near Zheng Zhuanggong's tomb in xinmi city, Henan Province have also been given new meanings. Since then, "Qin art" has become synonymous with men's and women's playgrounds or men's and women's affairs, and words such as "outside" and "gold" have also become places where men and women talk about complex love. The reason why "March 3rd" can become Valentine's Day in China is based on ancient legends, folk customs and official advocacy. The third day of March is called Shangsi Festival, which is named after the first fourth day of March, and is also called Si Yuan. Because the third day of March is not fixed every year, it is all around the third day of March. In order to remember it well, the third day of March was unified after Wei and Jin Dynasties. The Book of Rites of Jin said: "Hanyi, thinking, officials and people are all immersed in the east water to wash away the dirt. But since Wei, it's been three days, and I don't go to the third place. Chao Jinzhong Communist Youth League is not under Shu Ren, but it is all here in Luoshui. " According to the content of this festival custom, the people also call "March 3" March Festival, March Festival, Valentine's Day, Setting Plot Festival, Daughter's Day, Beggar's Day, New Year's Day and so on. According to ancient legends, Shangsi Festival is the day when Fuxi and Nu Wa have intercourse to make a baby. To this day, there is a custom of offering sacrifices to Fuxi Nuwa on March 3rd in some places. This shows that the birth of Shangsi Festival was originally related to people offering sacrifices to gods and praying for their children, so this day is also a day for young men and women to communicate, make love and have fun with each other. Moreover, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to Yutang, they all inherited the ancient system and continued the custom of March 3. Although the Six Rites were strictly stipulated in the Zhou Dynasty, in order to multiply the population, the contents of the ceremonies for men and women in Shangshuhui were still stipulated, so as to keep up with the season, make men and women of school age have families and promote the harmonious development of society. On this day, the court witch presided over the swaddling ceremony, and the Emperor of Zhou led the empresses to worship, fast, bathe and worship their ancestors. March became a grand festival because of the advocacy of the Emperor of Heaven and the rules of etiquette. Every year, on this day, from the Emperor of Heaven to the common people, they all put on newly sewn spring clothes, and the whole city invites them to go out, or play and bathe on the river bank, or pick bluegrass in the deep mountains and valleys, or have fun in the countryside, thinking that this can eliminate the ominous. Unmarried young men and women are the protagonists of the festival, singing and dancing, and freely looking for or dating lovers. "Zhou Li Emperor Shi Mei" said: "Mid-spring moon makes men and women meet, so when it comes, runners can't help it. "The official gave a legal status to Valentine's Day on March 3rd. So the later "March 3rd" included the elegant and popular stories of "The First Running Script in the World" and "Preface to the Lanting Pavilion" when forty people gathered in the Lanting Pavilion in the 9th year of Yonghe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (353), and the ambiguous romantic scene of "On March 3rd, the sky was crisp and the beauty enjoyed the cool by the Chang 'an Waterfront" in Du Fu's "Two Ways". With the "peach blossoms set each other off in red" and the "today last year" acacia in Cuihu. Since then, "making men and women meet" has become the core, the most basic and the most important content in the "March 3" festival. It is not only in line with the natural season of climate and human physiological development, but also conducive to human production and reproduction. At the same time, "All shall be well that ends well" is more conducive to the harmonious development of society and the progress of civilization. After the Song Dynasty, the imprisonment and marriage of women, especially unmarried women, became more and more serious. Generally speaking, women are forbidden to talk to strange men, and it is even more unimaginable to go out to parties to find lovers. In this social background, "March 3" naturally lost its existing environment. In modern times, the "March 3rd" activity in Han areas gradually disappeared, and its Valentine's Day function was finally forgotten. Only the ethnic minorities in the southwest of China, such as Bai, Miao, Yao, Li, Zhuang and She, still keep the festival custom of "March 3rd". On this day, all Hezu men and women will dress up and go out during the day, holding songs, singing songs, throwing hydrangeas and partying all day. As night falls, bonfires are lit on the banks of the river, the boys open flower umbrellas, and the girls' silver ornaments and shell ornaments twinkle in the firelight. Young men and women drink, sing, dance and party until late at night. Until today, these ethnic minorities regard March 3 as "love plot", "Valentine's Day" or "Sweet Tea Valentine's Day". In some Han areas, the custom of Valentine's Day on March 3rd is still maintained. For example, in northern China, such as Henan, there is "March 3, eat eggs; On March 3, cut the jujube tip. Girls under Taihang Mountain have the custom of "Peach Blossom Bath on March 3rd". In Jinan, Shandong Province, there is an activity of "March 3rd, blind date with Qianfo Mountain". In Yangzhou, today, there is still a clear melody of "Please allow me to March 3rd": "Beautiful girl, please allow me to wait under that shelf on March 3rd ..." All these show that "March 3rd", as the oldest Valentine's Day custom in China, still has tenacious continuity and vitality in China. In recent years, Western Valentine's Day has become more and more popular in China. Therefore, many people call on China people to celebrate their own Valentine's Day. Therefore, China regards Qixi on July 7th as Valentine's Day, but ignores the existence of March 3rd. I think China people should have their own Valentine's Day, but it should not be "July 7th" but "March 3rd". First of all, judging the nature of a festival depends on its customs. Traditionally, there is no custom for young men and women to get together to talk about love on Tanabata. This is the day when ancient women seek cleverness. Most of the ways to make fun of girls are to use needles to make small items and put some melons and fruits, which have nothing to do with love. Secondly, Tanabata is more closely related to solar terms and has nothing to do with love. When the "Weaver Girl" rose to the top of her head at dusk on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, it was the season when the summer heat was fading away, the autumn was crisp and women were spinning to make warm clothes. Therefore, this star is called "Weaver Girl". At this time, the Milky Way spans the north and south of the night sky, and Vega and Altair face each other across the river. This scene aroused the imagination of the ancients and linked it with the folk story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. We can't take it for granted that it is Valentine's Day because of the love story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl and the imagination and creation of love caused by this story. Third, "March 3" is deduced from ancient myths such as Fuxi and Nu Wa, and the custom of lovers tryst in spring has formed a long history of thousands of years. The earliest record of "July 7th" is Gehong's Miscellaneous Notes on Xijing in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which records that "women in the Han Dynasty often put seven-hole needles on the gold-opening building on July 7th, and everyone is there". Compared with the hatchback, the custom of "March 3rd" is earlier than "July 7th" 1000 years. Fourth, spring is the day of love, love in spring, everything is harmonious, and youth is budding. Valentine's day will conform to the laws of nature only in spring; Tanabata is the fire of July, and the sun flourishes and wanes. It is not so much a complete love as a sadness in my heart in autumn. Fifth, the thought that the original two cowherd and weaver girls will never meet each other on Valentine's Day in China gives people a sad aesthetic feeling. It is no wonder that in the divination document "The Book of the Day" in the Qin Dynasty, the cowherd and the weaver girl were clearly considered to be unfavorable to marriage. From this perspective, as Valentine's Day, "March 3rd" is much longer, more typical and more reasonable than "July 7th". Taking "March 3rd" as Valentine's Day in China, whether from the cultural connotation of the festival or the psychological identity of modern China people, is a move that conforms to the customs and conforms to the people's feelings.
