Heavenly Day is the name of Taoism, which originated late. Huai 'an folk have the custom of sunning red and green on June 6th.

According to legend, the custom of "basking in red and green on June 6th" originated in the Tang Dynasty. Xuanzang, a monk in the Tang Dynasty, took Buddhist scriptures from the Western Heaven (India) and returned to China. When crossing the sea, the scriptures were soaked in seawater. On the sixth day of June, the scriptures were taken out and dried, and this day became an auspicious day. At first, the emperor was clothed in dragon robes in the palace, and later it was spread from the palace to the people. Every household exposed their clothes in front of the gate on this day, and it became a custom in the future.

Festival custom

1, go back to your parents' home

There is a legend. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hu Yan, the Qing of the State of Jin, was arrogant, which made her in-laws angry. One year, Jin suffered a disaster, and Gu Yan left the capital to release grain. The son-in-law wanted to take advantage of Gu Yan's birthday to avenge his father and kill Gu Yan.

After the daughter knew it, she rushed back to her mother's house on a starry night to let her father have a preparation. Gu Yan released grain and returned to the city, knowing that he had done bad things and regretted it. Not only did he not blame his son-in-law, but he also corrected his own faults. Afterwards, every year on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, Gu Yan took her son-in-law and daughter home for family reunion. Later, it spread to the people and gradually became a festival for women to return to their parents' homes, also known as Aunt's Day.
