This article was reviewed by Shao Lin, a popular science author of ancient folk literature Double Ninth Festival every year Today is the Double Ninth Festival again... The annual Double Ninth Festival is here as scheduled Double Ninth Festival, New Year's Eve, Qingming Festival and Zhongyuan Festival Together they are collectively referred to as my country's four major traditional ancestor worship festivals So do you know why September 9th is designated as the Double Ninth Festival? How do people celebrate on this day? Let’s follow my steps and experience it together. It turns out that the Double Ninth Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena. In the Book of Changes, "nine" is defined as a yang number. On September 9, double nines and double yangs, the Double Ninth Festival was born. It started in ancient times, and it was not until the Tang Dynasty that it was taken out and ascended the throne of folk festivals. Later, because the number "nine" is a homophone of "long", it was given the meaning of eternity, health and longevity by modern people, so the term "Old People's Day" came into being. On the Double Ninth Festival, there are many activities, including climbing mountains, appreciating chrysanthemums, flying kites and eating Double Ninth Cake, as well as respecting the elderly.
