Double Ninth Festival, also known as Double Ninth Festival, Ascending Festival, Worship to Heaven Festival, etc. Double Ninth Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and July 30 are all traditional ancestral festivals in China. Nine is the largest number in the number, which is homophonic for a long time. Therefore, in the folk concept, the homonym of "Jiujiu" and "Jiujiu" gives the meaning of longevity, immortality, health and longevity.
Fishing is not allowed on the Double Ninth Festival, because it is avoided in order not to destroy eternity, health and longevity. Fishing on the Double Ninth Festival is killing creatures and, in a sense, destroying long life.
Other festivals where fishing is not allowed:
1, Tomb-Sweeping Day
Tomb-Sweeping Day, also known as March Festival, ancestor worship festival, outing festival, etc. Tomb-Sweeping Day has a long history. It is the most solemn ancestor worship festival of the Chinese nation, and it is a cultural inheritance of rituals, respect, filial piety and memory for ancestors and the deceased.
There is a folk saying that on Qingming Day, the deceased will receive clothes burned by later generations, and then go to the river to take a bath and put on new clothes. At this time, if you go fishing by the river, it will disturb the deceased to take a bath and change clothes, which is disrespectful, so Qingming can't go fishing by the river or take a bath in the river.
2. Dragon Boat Festival
Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Dragon Boat Festival, Duanyang Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, etc. It is also a traditional festival to worship gods and ancestors, pray for evil spirits and celebrate entertainment and diet. According to legend, Qu Yuan, a poet of Chu State in the Warring States Period, committed suicide by throwing himself into the Miluo River on the Dragon Boat Festival, and later generations took the Dragon Boat Festival as a festival to commemorate Qu Yuan.
You can't fish on Dragon Boat Festival. There is a folk saying that the Dragon Boat Festival is the birthday of the Dragon King and a festival for the Shui people. Just like Chinese New Year, this day is likely to be a disaster to destroy the creatures in the water.
3. Mid-Autumn Festival
Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Orchid Festival, is also known as July and a half among the people. The birth of the Mid-Autumn Festival can be traced back to the ancient ancestor worship period, which is mainly used for offering sacrifices to ancestors, the dead, burning paper ingots, setting off river lanterns and so on. It is also a traditional cultural festival to remember the ancestors and the deceased.
There are many folklore about Mid-Autumn Festival. Why can't we go fishing? Legend has it that this day is a day when the gates of hell are wide open, and the deceased will wait by the river for things that will be burned by others. On this day, the river is very cloudy, and fishing may cause some unclean things.
4. Mid-Autumn Festival
Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Mid-Autumn Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Moon Worship Festival, Reunion Festival and so on. It evolved from the worship of celestial phenomena in ancient times and is also an indispensable traditional festival of the Chinese nation. Mid-Autumn Festival represents reunion. In some folk places, there is a custom that you can't go fishing in the Mid-Autumn Festival because of reunion, and the full moon is a reunion.
So is fish. If we go fishing in the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will mean breaking up the reunion of fish, and it will also mean that people can't reunite, which is very unlucky.
Finally, did you find out that these festivals that can't fish are all related to ancestor worship? In Bian Xiao's hometown, there is also a saying that you can't fish during the Dragon Boat Festival. Not only can you not fish, but you can also fish in the river. Some people in our country went fishing by the river on the Dragon Boat Festival and never came back! Of course, it can't be said that it was caused by the Dragon Boat Festival. Maybe it's a coincidence.
But since there are rules, we should pay more attention and be more careful. After all, some things are not so coincidental. Besides, we can spend a lot of time fishing in a year, which is not bad these days.
