Can I confess next year?

Off-year can't sacrifice or burn incense.

This is because there is a folk custom of "offering sacrifices to the stove on the 23rd and sweeping the dust on the 24th", which generally starts from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month and is also called offering sacrifices to the stove in the new year.

From this day on, we will eat candy, sweep the dust and offer sacrifices to the stove.

Folk believe that sending the Kitchen God to heaven is equivalent to reporting all the bad things in a year to the Jade Emperor, knowing that it will bring disaster to people, so all the bad things should be done on this day.

This day is also a day when people pray for good luck, bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new year, and accept good luck.

From this day on, people will have a new year!

1, there is a folk custom of "23, don't eat small rice".

There are also some places that eat jiaozi on this day of off-year.

Because jiaozi is shaped like an ingot, eating jiaozi means making a fortune in the coming year.

In addition, in some places, the Kitchen God should be sent to heaven on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and some kitchen candy should be burned when offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God to prevent him from speaking ill of others.

Therefore, the off-year in the north is generally not a day to sacrifice stoves, but a day to clean the dust.

There are also places where the kitchen gods are sacrificed on the 23rd and 24th of the twelfth lunar month. On this day, they eat candy and offer sacrifices to the kitchen.

2. Don't burn incense on this day of off-year.

What is the reason? Because, in the north, there is a saying called "Twenty-three, on the day of offering sacrifices to the stove, the poor don't burn incense."

Because in the past, only people with good family conditions could afford incense to worship the kitchen god.

The average family will only buy an ordinary incense to worship the kitchen god.

3. The Kitchen God is the Kitchen God, also known as the Kitchen God Bodhisattva. He is in charge of a family's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and his wealth is prosperous. People respect him very much.

People worship him and worship gods to him.

Kitchen God is a Chinese folk belief, which can be traced back to ancient times.

Legend has it that in ancient times, heaven and earth were chaotic, and there lived a god named "Kitchen God" in the sky.

In order to show respect for Kitchen God and pray for peace in the coming year, people will offer some offerings to Kitchen God.

Later, these sacrifices evolved into a kind of holiday food.

In the Han dynasty, this kind of ceremony became popular, and people sacrificed to the kitchen god on this day.

4. There are many reasons for not burning incense:

First, many people think that burning incense is a superstition. They think that people who burn incense are unlucky for a year. If they burn incense in off-year, ominous gas will enter their homes.

Second: in early years, housewives should prepare for the coming year and not burn incense in the kitchen;

Third, some places say that you should not burn incense in the temple on this day, and something will happen;
