Chun Qiu Jie & Valentine's Day I

Us

A rare Wefie from us. Hardly ready for the picture to be taken but there was a group of people arrived with a couple of boxes of fireworks and firecrakers. Playing firecrakers and fireworks In the temple compounds is part of the Chinese tradition during the new year. It is said to pleased the deities and fairies whom in return will bless and bestow more richness to the person or the family.

Although it is not a compulsory thing to do, the mere visit and prayer with a little donation would do. For us, compare to a normal prayer, this year we chose golden color jossticks. A bundle only costs RM3. Some might want to bring extra things as an offerings such as barbequed pig, fruits and even fresh flowers.

So, on the 7th day of the new year, is called human's birthday. On 14th day, is the closing ceremony of the new year celebration. I'll tell you more about it on the next post.
