Shangsi Festival is still a human day. People's Day is also a traditional festival. According to legend, Nu Wa created seven kinds of animals in seven days, which are arranged as follows: the first day is chicken day, the second day is dog day, the third day is sheep day, the fourth day is pig day, the fifth day is ox day, the sixth day is horse day and the seventh day is human day.
According to the ranking of heavenly stems of A, B, C, D, E, G, N and N, and the ranking of earthly branches of Zi Chou Yin Mao Tatsumi at noon, the seventh day is the earthly branch, so the earthly branch is a human day, so the Shangsi Festival is also a human day festival.
To commemorate People's Day, we should eat "seven treasures soup" and "fumigate the sky". "Seven treasures soup" is a dish made of seven kinds of dishes, while "Xuntian" is a pancake made in the open air. In addition, colorful silk fabrics should be cut into human figures or gold foil carved into human figures and hung on screens or curtains for good luck.
Besides Shangsi Festival, March 3rd is the birthday of the Queen Mother of the West. This theory originated from Taoist legend. Every year on this day, immortals from all walks of life will go to Yaochi to offer gifts to celebrate their birthdays, and the famous "Ma Gu's Birthday Offering" came into being.
