When is the ancient Spring Festival of the lunar calendar?
Spring Festival is the first of the four traditional festivals in China, also known as China New Year. The time nodes of the Spring Festival in ancient and modern times are different: in ancient times, it started from La Worship (Laba Festival) or the sacrificial stove on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month (23rd in the north and 24th in the south) and ended on the 19th of the first month; Modern times begin on the first day of the first lunar month and end on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month (Shangyuan Festival).
It is impossible to prove when the Spring Festival originated. It is said that one day after Shun Di ascended the throne, he led his ministers to worship the God of heaven and earth and pray for people's rebirth. Since then, people have regarded this day as the beginning of a year, which is the origin of the Spring Festival.
