What are the beliefs about giving birth on Qingming Festival?
Belief 1: Children born on Qingming Festival are called "Immortal Embryo"
Children born on Qingming Festival have a spiritual destiny, known as the "Child of Heaven" or "Immortal Embryo." A "Child of Heaven" originally refers to a young celestial being who was demoted to the human world due to some mistake. People born with this destiny are naturally beautiful and beloved by everyone. These children may be recalled at any time, so they may face difficulties before the age of 18 or 48. People with this destiny are often weak from childhood or may still suffer from chronic illnesses, although not serious, they are uncomfortable.
Belief 2: Children born on Qingming Festival have a strong destiny that may harm others, leading to an unhappy marriage
In folk beliefs, children born on Qingming Festival have a strong destiny that may be harmful to their parents, and in severe cases, may even harm them. Due to their strong destiny, their marriages may also be unstable. However, whether someone has a strong destiny is not solely determined by the day they were born. Children with strong destinies can be born on other days as well. Having a strong destiny does not necessarily mean it is bad.
[Note from Wang Yi Network Editor] Giving birth on Qingming Festival is the same as giving birth on any other day. Just go with the natural flow, let the pregnancy reach its natural conclusion, and ensure the baby is born safely and the mother gives birth smoothly. The health and safety of both mother and child are the best luck. There is no need to worry about these so-called beliefs.
Swing-riding is one of the traditional customs of Qingming Festival in ancient China. According to Wang Renyu's "The Legacy of Kaiyuan and Tianbao," it says, "In the imperial palace during the Tianbao period, they set up swings for the Palace Ladies to play and laugh, making it a form of entertainment. The emperor called it 'half-a-spirit game,' and the people of the capital began to call it so." In the Song Dynasty, Premier Wen Yanbo wrote the poem "Passing through Longmen on the Cold Food Festival," describing it as, "Willows by the bridge with green threads, and colorful ropes hanging from the trees." A swing means holding onto a leather rope and moving forward.
The history of swing-riding is very old. Originally called "Qianqiu," it was later changed to "Qiugan" to avoid taboos. In ancient times, swings were usually made from tree branches with colorful ribbons tied to them. Later, they gradually evolved into swings with two ropes and a platform. Swing-riding not only promotes health but also helps cultivate courage, and it is still loved by people, especially children.
