Zijin Fortune Telling _ Bauhinia Fortune Telling

Superstitious custom

Pray for God to cure the disease.

In the old society, many people in Zijin County were superstitious about ghosts and gods. When people in their family were sick, they invited a magic stick and a witch to "predict the immortals and ask them" to give medicine to cure the disease. Some people are sick and think that ghosts and gods are causing trouble, so they invite monks and Taoists to do the practice of "exorcising evil spirits and getting rid of diseases". Some people missed the time of healing and lost their lives because they believed in ghosts and gods. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), this custom was no longer believed. But now some places are sinking again.

Tell sb's fortune

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, some "fortune tellers" on the tramp used heavenly stems and earthly branches according to a person's "eight characters" of birth, combined with the theory that the five elements are mutually reinforcing, and then explored each other's psychology, looked at their faces, and used ambiguous words to calculate a person's life's fate, property, daughter-in-law, honor and disgrace, good or ill luck, and so on, to defraud money. Many people in Zijin County are superstitious about numerology and give their birthdays to "fortune tellers". Many people have been cheated. After liberation, this custom was once abolished. It has risen again in recent years.

Seek god's guidance by drawing lots

Begging for a sign is a way for monks and Taoists in the old temple to borrow money from God, and a sign box for superstitious people is set up. The prayer seeker first burns incense and candles in front of the sacred case, and then holds the sign tube and shakes it until there is a sign to jump out. According to the sign number, the temple draws out the same sign, so that the applicant can explain and measure good or bad luck in four sentences.

After liberation, temples in the county were destroyed and the bad habit of asking for visas was abolished.

See feng shui

In the old society, when people built houses, moved houses and built tombs, they would invite "Mr. Geography" to see Feng Shui. It is believed that the rise and fall of a family fortune and the wisdom of children are all related to the peak water of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang families demand a lot of money, so many people spend a lot of money and materials. Some people even have disputes because of superstitious geomantic omen, which leads to many years of lawsuits and both sides lose. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), fewer and fewer people believed in this custom.

Megumin

Clubs are commonly known as "fights". The general cycle is five years, small, ten years and big. There are two festivals in Zijin County: one is called "Shen Yi", which is a temple fair held all over the country on the birthday of "God". The "Tianhou Niangniang" in the county is on March 23 of the lunar calendar; Ximen Guandi is May 13, and there are fixed temple fair dates for Beidi Temple, Dongyue Temple, Chenghuang Temple, Longwo Wuxian Temple, Guzhu Beidi Temple and Jingzi Zhanggong Temple. The other is called "Hemi", which is held in towns or joint towns. There is no fixed date, and it is mostly held in winter. The duration of the meeting is generally five days and six nights, and there are also seven days and eight nights.

When it was built, two "rich and rich" people named "Fushou" and "Fuquan" respectively presided over the ceremony. Name 65,438+000 prime ministers, and select some of them to be responsible for various specific tasks.

After the meeting began, vendors gathered, pilgrims poured in, casinos spread all over, and gamblers fought day and night. Men and women from all over the world came to the meeting, dressed in new clothes, and flocked to the meeting place in an endless stream.

There is a Buddhist temple on the altar, where monks recite scriptures day and night, accompanied by Fu Shou, Fu Quan and the Prime Minister in turn. A stage was set up opposite the altar. Cantonese opera was performed by immortals and puppet show was performed by fanfan. On one side of the altar, there is a paper-bound "white master" named "Mountain Man". Put up three banners marked "Shi Yang, Yin Shi". All beggars are sitting and don't have to beg for food. On the last day, eight people traveled carrying the idol, and nobles, old people and others followed them with incense. Everywhere, every family burns incense and candles and bows to show their sincere respect. On the night of Gaolong (the last night), paper money and clothes with the same size as the hut were burned, which was called "ghost giving".

During the festival, everyone in the building area should take a bath and fast, do not kill or eat meat, and the husband and wife live in separate rooms.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), the bad social atmosphere was broken.
