Why is the seventh day of the first month called People's Day?

According to the legend of the Han nationality, Nu Wa created the whole life, including chickens, dogs, pigs, sheep, cows, horses and other animals, and made people on the seventh day, so the seventh day is a person's birthday. People's Day: refers to the seventh day of the first lunar month. According to ancient legends, the first day of the first lunar month is the Year of the Rooster, the second day is the Year of the Dog, the third day is the Year of the Pig, the fourth day is the Year of the Sheep, the fifth day is the Year of the Ox, the sixth day is the Year of the Horse and the seventh day is the Year of the Man. The ancients believed in the connection between man and nature and took the seventh day after the age of seven as the day, that is, the seventh day of the first month.

There is a sentimental remark in Gao Shi's poem "People send Toure to pick up the remains every day", that is, "People will remember each other this year, and people will know where it is next year". It is proved that the People's Day in the Tang Dynasty is not only dedicated to praying for good luck and wishing peace, but also adds an atmosphere of missing relatives and friends. Today, there are also wanderers who went home years ago and can't go to other places until after Everyone's Day.

On People's Day, we don't travel far, visit relatives and friends, and get together at home. People usually eat long noodles in the afternoon, which is also called soul-pulling noodles. In other words, during the Chinese New Year, people are everywhere and their hearts are wild. At the end of the day, it is time to prepare for spring ploughing. So eat noodles, find your heart, and prepare for spring ploughing.
