The moral of the full moon ceremony is that children must wear brand-new clothes at the full moon ceremony, and everyone can clearly realize that it is necessary to dress up at important moments. Let's look at the meaning of the full moon ceremony.
The implication of the full moon ceremony 1 The full moon ceremony is the beginning ceremony of life.
The ancients said: "The name is the right body", and the name is a symbol and a proper name. The naming system of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was recorded in the Book of Rites, a traditional book in China, which laid the basic model of naming etiquette for the next generation by the Han people around 2000.
The traditional naming ceremony is solemn and solemn, which makes the newborn recognized by family, neighborhood and society. At the same time, it also fully contains people's good wishes for a new life, and reflects the care and attention of family, family, relatives and even society for a new life.
In the past century, traditional culture has declined, and some excellent national cultures are dying out. At present, there are few positive, healthy and profound elements in the birth etiquette held in society, and the real national characteristics are almost nowhere to be found. Traditional life etiquette only leaves a superficial and vulgar shell.

First of all, at the full moon ceremony, children will receive many substantial blessings in addition to oral and written blessings. The so-called substantive blessing here mainly refers to the items sent by the guests, most of which are clothes and ornaments. Through these gifts and ornaments, we can see the guests' attitude towards children.
Besides, at the full moon ceremony, children must wear brand-new clothes and never wear ordinary old clothes. In fact, this custom seems to be observed by many people now. After all, we often wear new clothes during the Spring Festival, and everyone can clearly realize the necessity of dressing up at important moments.
However, people may not know the customs and habits of dressing children in new clothes. In fact, in ancient times, it was very important to dress children and wear ornaments. For example, families will hold special ceremonies at specific times, and only in this process can they change clothes, and the work of changing clothes must be done by the elderly.
The specific time referred to here is before the banquet, and the reason why the grandmother of the child wants to dress the newborn, ornaments and bedding is mainly because in traditional culture, the old man is often a symbol of protecting the family in the town. And the old man puts on new clothes for his children, which means that children can seek advantages and avoid disadvantages in the process of growing up.
When it comes to children's clothes and accessories, there are actually many rules. In traditional customs, a long-life lock is something that children must wear, as important as new clothes. The implication of the longevity lock is natural, that is, I hope my child can grow up safely in the future.
And why use locks to express the meaning of long life? This is because in the eyes of the ancients, wearing a condom can actually ensure that a series of spirits such as children's soul and health can be firmly trapped, which is the key to ensuring their safety. Once these spirits are taken away by so-called ghosts, children are likely to die early.
But in fact, the main reason for the premature death of children is that the level of science and technology at that time was not developed enough, which led to the lack of timely and effective care at birth, or the infection caused by one reason or another after birth. At that time, people had no good way but to rely on these illusory things.
Of course, this kind of locking behavior is actually harmless now, so it stayed as a symbolic ceremony. In addition, there are actually many related ornaments, which also contain ardent expectations for the safe growth of children, such as red shoes and red hats.
Red is a very auspicious color in China, and most red objects are regarded as protective devices to drive away demons and ghosts. Therefore, for newborn children, wearing red clothes and accessories all over can ensure their safety. Red itself is also a very festive color, so it is also regarded as a blessing for the birth of a child.
