July 14, July 15, when is Ghost Festival?

Under normal circumstances, July 15 is Ghost Festival. Whether it is the tradition of the Han nationality, the Mid-Autumn Festival of Taoism or the Kasahara Festival of Buddhism, it is all on this day. However, in South China, such as Guangdong, Ghost Festival is often celebrated on July 14, and there is a reason. Different from the strong religious beliefs of other countries in the world, the ancient people in China did not have many religious beliefs, but they had profound ancestral beliefs.

According to the traditional concept of China people, people and ghosts are separated by Yin and Yang. Under normal circumstances, ghosts can't stay in the dead. Only on special occasions, such as New Year's Eve, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and cold clothes, can we return to the world, communicate with our relatives and stay with the spirit.

Han people in southern China originally went south to escape the war in the Central Plains. China people moved to another place. When they moved, they had to take away the souls of their ancestors. However, it is said that when a Bohan moved south, the enemy was one day away from July 15th, and the army would kill them before the coming of Ghost Festival. Of course, this is just a legend. In fact, according to the traditional custom of China people, the day begins at eleven o'clock in the evening instead of twelve o'clock in the evening. At this time, there is still one day before July 15, and they can't wait for the arrival of Ghost Festival. Of course, this is just a legend.
