How to celebrate father's eightieth birthday? 1 General folks celebrate their eightieth birthday. Congratulations on your birthday. Relatives and friends give gifts and watch a play while drinking. The content of the play is mainly wealth and longevity. At the birthday party, there must be a plate of "pig's foot noodles". The birthday girl should be dressed up and sit in the main hall to receive birthday greetings from her children and grandchildren. However, some people dare not celebrate their birthdays because they believe that fortune tellers are "outspoken", so as not to be taken away by black and white impermanence.
Birthday celebrations for the elderly (over 50 years old) are called birthdays every ten days, such as "50th birthday", "60th birthday" and "70th birthday". But this kind of birthday is not really every ten years, but refers to 49, 59, 69 and so on. Because nine is the largest number among ten numbers, people have formed this custom of celebrating "nine does not celebrate ten" in order to get lucky.
Send invitations to your close relatives and friends before your birthday, usually three days before your birthday, otherwise it is impolite. As the saying goes, "three days is an invitation, two days is a call, and the same day is a belt." After receiving the invitation, relatives and friends will prepare birthday gifts, commonly known as "birthday greetings". The host will also hold a big birthday party, the guests will drink heavily, and some will invite the church to add to the festive atmosphere. Birthday worship is also called "birthday celebration" Relatives and friends came to congratulate the old man on his birthday. Gifts are mostly peaches, noodles, cloth, cakes with birthday characters. Cloth, commonly known as "Shouzhang", is hung around the ceiling in the yard for guests to see. Write some auspicious words and the sender's name on the birthday account. Men are often endowed with words such as "the benevolent lives long" and "your life is infinite", while women are endowed with words such as "Pengdao Ai Chun" and "Long life".
Shoutang is generally located in the hall, with a curtain on the front and couplets on both sides, such as "longevity is like the East China Sea" and "longevity is better than the South Mountain". On the table of the Eight Immortals, there are incense burners, wax thousand, longevity wax, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, the core monument of life to prolong life, and yellow money, paper ingots and thousands of pieces hanging on both sides of the case. There are foods symbolizing longevity on the long table, such as longevity peaches and noodles. There is a red mat on the ground in front of the square table for worshippers to bow down. People over the same age hold hands, while those below kowtow.
Snuff, flowers for lanterns, twisted into the shape of flowers with colored lantern paper and dipped in sesame oil. The number of snuff is two more than the age of the long-lived people, one is the "animal year" and the other is the "longevity year". In the evening, those who live long will burn incense, and each of his children will hold a lamp tray and line up outside the door to burn it with the scriptures and money.

How can I celebrate my father's eightieth birthday? Is it true that two is greater than nine instead of ten?
In some places, it is important to celebrate the birthday of the elderly, that is to say, when people reach the age of ten, they often celebrate their birthdays at nine instead of this year. For example, 60th and 70th birthdays, and 59th and 69th birthdays should be celebrated in advance.
According to legend, the reason why you are over nine and not over ten is related to homophonic: "nine" and "long" are homophonic, which means "long life" and is a symbol of longevity; And "ten" and "death" are homophonic, so it is taboo for people; Moreover, the whole life is held one year in advance, and there is a saying that "89 is close to 10", which is also a homonym of "immortality".
On the other hand, "ten" is the most single digit, and it is well known that "extremes meet" and "full moon leads to losses", so people prefer the number "nine".
What's the point of celebrating your 80th birthday?
1, eat red eggs on birthday: peeling eggshells means that we peel off the past and reshape ourselves, which means the beginning of shelling and rebirth.
2, birthday China people eat longevity noodles: remember not to break the noodles when putting the bowl, the higher the pull, the longer the life of the owner.
3. People don't disclose their birthdays: In the traditional stories of China, Peng Zu is considered as the oldest person. According to legend, he lived for more than 800 years. The reason why he will die is that one day he saw a man washing charcoal. This man wants to wash the black charcoal white. Peng Zu said with a smile: I have lived for more than 800 years and I have never heard that charcoal can be washed white. I didn't expect the charcoal washer to be a kid messenger, and I couldn't find Peng Zu. Unexpectedly, Peng Zu confessed himself, so Peng Zu was taken to the underworld. Therefore, because of this story, people's birthdays are always low-key, unless it is a specific birthday age.
When you are 49 years old, you should be called 50 years old: because for China people, 9 is the end of a number, symbolizing the end, and 0 is the beginning. When you meet nine, pass 0 first. Therefore, the 50th birthday should be celebrated at the age of 49, and 9 also stands for eternal life.
5. Blow out the candle once: Blowing out once means that the wish is realized once, symbolizing the owner's health and symbolizing good luck.
6, the cake can not be cut in half: usually the birthday girl will not cut the cake to the end, the second knife will be cut by the birthday girl, cut twice. It's not good to cut it completely. Remember not to cut the wedding cake to the end, but to cut it twice.
7. Ghost month is not a birthday: people who celebrate their birthdays in July of the lunar calendar don't show off, especially on July 15th of the lunar calendar, which is the birthday of the ghost king. Didn't it imply that they were like the ghost king? It is also possible that the ghost king knows or invites this person to spend his birthday together.
8. You can't celebrate after your birthday: you can only celebrate in advance, but you can't postpone it. I wish you a birthday. Be sincere in advance. After my birthday, I feel that I have had two birthdays and I am two years older.
9. Birthdays are forbidden on the following days: off-year, New Year's Eve, 15th day of the first month, 12th July, 27th July, etc. It is a traditional day of sacrifice, and it is generally a day of sacrifice to graves or graves. However, there are activities such as grave-sweeping and worship on birthdays, and it is best to finish them before 3 pm. In ancient China, chrysanthemum was regarded as a flower of sustenance, which meant missing and homesickness.
White chrysanthemum is the most suitable, and it can also be matched with some green grass, such as lily, green leaves and carnations, which will be more beautiful. However, Huang Ju Flower, known as Longevity Chrysanthemum, is more suitable for visiting patients than paying homage to the dead. Because the cemetery is the home of an old friend, don't cross the grave and the offerings, make a loud noise, laugh and curse, and call names. This is not only disrespectful to one's ancestors, but also a nuisance to nearby spiritual bodies, and it is not allowed to trample on other graves or judge the design of graves, which will be regarded as blasphemy.
It's best not to visit relatives and friends that day. Because it is a special time to pay homage to festivals, it is really embarrassing or unlucky to visit relatives and friends at this time. Because shoes are the same as evil sounds, you can't buy shoes at this time. If someone at home happens to have a birthday today, try to avoid it. For example, if the birthday of the solar calendar happens to be in Tomb-Sweeping Day, try to celebrate the birthday of the lunar calendar, and vice versa. If it is really unavoidable, don't accept flowers and eat birthday cake on the same day.
