I’m writing to share more information with you. Major cold marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring, is one of the 24 solar terms in the Chinese calendar. During this period, people traditionally engage in thorough housecleaning to sweep away bad luck and make way for good luck in the year to come. This practice is known as “dusting and cleaning.” In addition, some families may gather on the 16th day of the twelfth lunar month to perform a tooth sacrifice, a rite that symbolizes filial piety. Furthermore, people prepare for the upcoming Lunar New Year by purchasing gifts and necessities in the lead-up to Dà Hán. The marketplaces are bustling with activity as people flock to buy traditional New Year items and treats. In some regions, there’s also a custom of taking a bath on Dà Hán, believed to wash away bad luck and sickness from the previous year. This practice is thought to usher in good luck and health for the incoming year. I hope these insights into Dà Hán have been informative and have added to your understanding of Chinese culture and traditions. If you have any further questions or would like to learn more, please feel free to ask!
