Why blow out the candles on your birthday? How did this custom come about?
It is said that this custom comes from a custom in ancient Greece. In ancient Greece, people worshipped the moon god very much. To celebrate Al themis's birthday, people hold a grand ceremony every year. In this ceremony, people set up an altar and put cakes made of honey and flour on the altar. Because people think that the light of candles is like the brilliance of the moon, they put many lighted candles on the cake to show their respect for the moon goddess.
With the long-term spread of the celebration custom, people began to offer cakes to their children on their birthdays to celebrate. Later, the Greeks extended the ceremony of lighting candles and added the celebration of blowing out candles on this basis. This is because the Greek people have always believed that the trembling flame not only symbolizes light, but also contains some mysterious power. When people who have had birthdays are sincere, they will silently make a wish and blow out the candles, and their wishes will gradually come true. Later, this custom gradually spread to all parts of the world and became a global country.
Of course, the habit of blowing out candles on our birthdays comes from this, which may be due to the long-term spread and evolution, or in order to enliven the atmosphere of birthdays, people have joined the link of singing birthday songs in these links.
