One of the legends of the Spring Festival: stay up to the year.
The old man is not sleeping on the last night of the old year, staying up late to welcome the New Year, also known as the New Year's eve, the name of the year. To explore the origin of this custom, there is an interesting story among the folk:
In the ancient times, there was a fierce monster, scattered in the forests of deep mountains, people called them "nian". Its appearance is ferocious, the nature is ferocious, the special food birds and animals, scales, a day to change a flavor, from the click beetle to eat the living, let people talk about the "year" color change. Later, people gradually mastered the law of the activities of "year", it is every three hundred and sixty-five days up to the home of people taste a fresh mouth, and infested time is after dark, until dawn crowing, they went back to trees.
Have been "years" of the date, people put this terrible night as the pass to evil spirit, called "year", and come up with a set of the solution: a year on this day in the evening, every household has prepare the dinner early and flameout net, then all the chicken circle stall belay, put the house in front and back the door be sealed, hiding in the house to eat "family reunion dinner", because the dinner has XiongJi uncertainty, so with very abundant, in addition to her family around said peace reunion dinner together outside, still must before dinner for the first ancestor worship, pray for the ancestors of the gods bless, safely through the night, after dinner, who can't sleep, sit together, chatting courage.

People lit candles or oil lamps and stayed up all night, symbolizing that they would run away with all evil and disease, and look forward to a New Year of good luck. This custom has been handed down to this day.
Chinese New Year legend two: ten thousand years to create the calendar to say.
According to legend, in ancient times, there was a young man named wannian, who saw that the festival was very chaotic, and there was a plan to set the order. But suffer from can not find a method of computing time, one day, up the hill cutting wood tired, he sat in the shade to rest, the movement of the shadow inspired him, and he designed a shadow measurement meter days regarding instrument, determine the time of day, later, cliff dripping springs inspired his inspiration, he began to make a clepsydra, five layer to calculate time. After a long day, he found that every three hundred and sixty days, the four seasons were reincarnated, and the length of time was repeated.
At that time, the monarch was called zu yi, and he was often troubled by the unexpected weather. When he knew it, he went to the emperor with a sundial and a jug, and told him the truth about the operation of the sun and moon. Zu b listen to longyan big yue, feel reasonable. So the ten thousand years were left to build the sun and moon pavilion in front of the temple of heaven, and built the sundial and the jug pavilion. And hope to be able to measure the law of the sun and the moon, to calculate the exact time of the morning, to create the calendar, for the benefit of the people of the world.
Once, zub went to learn about the progress of testing the calendar. When he reached the altar, he saw a poem carved on the stone wall beside the temple of heaven:
The sunrise and sunset, three hundred and six, round and round.
There are twelve circles in a year when the grass and trees are withered.
We know that the calendar has been created for thousands of years, and we have personally visited the pavilion. Pointing to the sky, he said to his father, "it is twelve months now. The old one is over, and the spring is beginning. "Spring is the first year of the year," said zub. "let's call it Spring Festival." It is said that this is the origin of Spring Festival.
Winter and spring came, year after year, after years of observation, careful calculation, worked out the exact solar calendar, when he presented the solar calendar to the successor of the monarch, was already covered with silver beard. The emperor was deeply moved, and he named the solar calendar as the "perpetual calendar", which is the birthday of the sun and the moon. In the future, people will hang the birthday chart on New Year's day, which is said to commemorate the year of high prestige.
Spring Festival legend 3: paste spring couplet and door god.
It is said that the custom of sticking to the Spring Festival couplet began about a thousand years ago in the post-shu period, which is evidenced by history. In addition, according to the "jade candle", "yanjing age" and other works, the original form of spring couplet is what people call "the peach character".
In ancient Chinese mythology, it is said that there is a world of ghosts, among which there is a mountain, and there is a big peach tree covered with three thousand li. There is a golden rooster on the top of the tree. Whenever the golden rooster crows in the morning, the ghosts who wander at night must return to the ghost domain. In the northeast of the peach tree, the gate of the ghost domain stands two gods, named god tea and yu lei. If the ghost had done the wicked thing at night, he would have found it immediately and caught it, and tied it up with a rope made of the reed, and sent it to the tiger. Therefore, the ghosts of the world are afraid of god's tea and yu lei. So the folk used peach wood carved into their appearance, in front of their own door, to ward off evil. Later, people simply carved the name of god tea and yu lei on the peach board, believing that it would also be good for evil. The peach wood was later called the "peach".
In the song dynasty, people began to write couplet on the peach board, the meaning of a peach wood town, two express their own good wishes, and three decorative portal, in order to beautiful. On the red paper, which symbolizes joy and auspice, they write couplets on red paper, which are posted on both sides of doors and Windows to express people's wishes for good luck in the coming year.
In order to pray for the longevity of the family, some people in some places still have the habit of putting on the door god. It is said that the door is decorated with two gods, and all evil spirits will be in awe. In the folk, the door god is the symbol of the upright qi and the force, the ancients thought, the appearance is unusual person often has the magic temperament and the uncommon ability. They are honest and kind-hearted, and it is their nature and duty to capture the demons, and the admiration of the ghost master zhong kui is such a strange form. Therefore, the folk door god is always full of angry eyes, looking ferocious, with all kinds of traditional weapons in hand, ready to be able to come to the ghosts to fight. Because the door of our country houses, usually is two to open, so the door god is always in pairs.
After the tang dynasty, apart from the past of the gods, and the second base, the people of qin shubao and wei zaigong were regarded as the gods of the tang dynasty. According to legend, tang taizong was sick, and heard the evil spirit outside the door. So he let the two generals hold the weapon at the door, and the next night there was no more ghosts. Later, emperor taizong asked people to draw the images of the two generals and put them on the door. The custom began to spread widely among the people.
